The short answer: If you are researching therapeutic help online, then you are probably ready to give it a try. The answer is most likely yes, you are probably ready.

Do you take insurance?

I do not bill insurance but will be happy to provide you documentation to give to your insurance company for out of network reimbursement. 

What will happen in a session?
During the first 60-90 minute session you are expected to share your concerns or reasons for your being interested in therapy. We will generally meet either weekly or more if indicated and during those sessions we will work on attaining your goals. Regular therapy sessions are 50 minutes.  Shorter and longer sessions are available to meet your schedule and needs. In between sessions it will be beneficial for you to process and think about what was discussed in session.  I may assign homework to do between sessions to help you get the most out of your therapy time.

Is therapy confidential?
Confidentiality is an important building block of the therapeutic relationship, it provides trust and openness. The law also helps the therapist protect the privacy and confidentiality of all communication between the therapist and the client. Information will not be disclosed without permission from the client. However, there are some legal exceptions to this law. These exceptions include:  You will receive written and detailed information about your rights to privacy and confidentiality

• Suspected child/elderly/disabled abuse. The therapist is required by law to report this immediately to the appropriate authorities.

• If the client is threatening to hurt himself/herself or others.

• If the law requires disclosure of information.
