Frequently Asked Questions
How much are sessions?
I charge $150 per 50-minute individual session, $175 per 50-minute couple session, and $250 per 90-minute couple session.
Where do you see clients?
I work with people in my office in Tower Grove and also see people through a HIPPA-compliant Zoom for virtual sessions.
Do you accept insurance?
I do not accept insurance because I do not conceptualize counseling through diagnostic criteria that is required to use insurance. I can provide you with a super bill which you can submit to your insurance.
How long will I have to be in counseling?
Counseling can be helpful for many different timelines. Part of our work together will be identifying goals that you have for your time in counseling and we will check in regularly about the effectiveness of our counseling work together. You can stop counseling at anytime and return to counseling at anytime.
What will happen in the first session?
Once we decide to work together, I will send you new client paperwork, which will help me get to know you and what you want out of counseling. During our first session, I will get to know you and your life- the important people and experiences that have shaped you. We will start to decide together what we want counseling to look like and you will have a say in what the focus of our work is. I will offer what I see as valuable areas to focus on and will very interested in your own ideas.
Can I bring my baby?
Absolutely. You are able to bring a baby to session if that makes attending therapy easier for you.
