I have never done this before. How do I start the process?
Congrats on taking your first step! Please call or email me. I will contact you and ask you a few questions to determine if my services are a good match for your needs. I am also happy to answer any questions you have as well.
What should I expect in my first session?
In your first session, we will discuss what your goals are in therapy. I will also ask questions to get to know you better as an individual. All this information is helpful for me to understand your needs, strengths, history, and supports.
Do you see couples for counseling?
I am sorry to say that I am no longer taking couples.
Do you see children in your practice?
What if you don't take my insurance and I would like to see you?
I am happy to discuss private pay options. The initial session is $175. Sessions after that are $150 per hour.
Do you have any special trainings?
I am a Certified Nephrology Social Worker. Prior to going into private practice, I worked in a dialysis center for several years. In addition to that, I interned as an Oncology Social Worker. I am well versed in medical social worker and have worked with may people with illness and disabilaties.
Do I have to pick between telehealth and in person sessions?
I am very flexible if you need to switch between coming in person and having a telehealth session!
Are you handicapped accessible?
For in person, I am on the second floor so you would need to be able to do stairs. However, I am happy to offer telehealth for those that have physical disabilities.
