WHY THERAPY?

Successful therapy will give you the tools to understand yourself, deal with transitions, develop new coping mechanisms, and grow psychologically on your own. Effective therapy relieves suffering and promotes personal growth and change.

HOW LONG DOES THERAPY TAKE?

The length of time a person chooses to stay in therapy depends on the individual. It depends upon what your individual goals are and what you are hoping to get out of therapy. Treatment is more effective when the client attends weekly sessions. Sometimes a person comes in to work on one specific goal and an awareness develops about the need to work on other goals as well.

HOW DO I GET STARTED?

First, we would need to schedule a 15 minute complimentary phone session before your initial appointment. The purpose of this phone session is to ensure that we are a good fit for one another. During our initial phone session, I will find out what your needs are and give you an idea of how my practice works.

DO YOU ACCEPT INSURANCE?

I am a provider for BlueCross BlueShield CareFirst. Payment for services is due at the time of service. If you would like to use your out-of-network insurance benefits, you will be provided with a receipt of services that you may submit to your insurance company for partial reimbursement. It is advised that you call your insurance company to verify out-of-network coverage for outpatient mental health services.

DO YOU HAVE A SLIDING SCALE?

I reserve some sliding scale spaces. Please don’t hesitate to contact me so that we can discuss my sliding scale and try to make it work.
