Telehealth - Zoom therapy

Coffee & Consultation  This is the free consultation part. This is twenty-minutes where we feel out if we seem to be a good fit. I will explain how I work, and you will tell me what you are looking for in a therapist. 

Working Together  Treatment plans for people working in therapy are not universal - people have different goals, different pasts, and different behavioral expressions of suffering. As a result, each treatment plan will be tailored for you. This treatment plan may change over time, as your needs and priorities change.

I see clients from Wednesday through Sunday.

My preference is to do 75-minute sessions, which is 25 minutes longer than the industry standard of 50 minutes. I have chosen to do this because I have observed that 50 minutes isn't always enough time to  settle into the present moment, work with trauma, and then create the appropriate closure, so a person can go back to their life and engage with the world.  

$150 for 75-minutes.

$120 for 50-minutes.

Sliding Scale Available.

From a clinical standpoint a certain frequency of meetings is necessary to make progress and establish the trust and safety necessary for progress.

My policy is this: for the first three months we meet weekly. After that clients are free to come bi-weekly if desired.

There are agreements we will need to work together on zoom. Although telehealth has provided psychotherapists and clients with a great deal more freedom, it cannot be done under all circumstances. In order to work together the instrument of communication (computer, phone) must be stationary. We cannot work together if you are driving due to the danger involved. The space you are in must be completely private from all other people, including family. You be fully dressed. Please be upright and gazing toward the camera. Therapy is also not done well while multi-tasking - doing emotional work requires full concentration.

Not currently. However, I can create a Superbill that can be submitted to your HMO or PPO for reimbursement.
