Guiding you toward a brighter future

What is Psychotherapy?

A collection of road signs pointing to various ideals, such as "life" and "family".

Psychotherapy is different from seeing a medical practitioner as our work together will be collaborative, and will require active engagement on your part. Treatment can be challenging at times, and will sometimes require you to explore topics or feelings which you find difficult. This is part of the process.

It is important that you be aware that in order to make changes and grow, a little hard work is required, and you may experience discomfort (e.g., sadness, anger, frustration, loneliness, guilt) during this process. Please know that your journey will be taken at your own pace, and in a manner that you are comfortable with. 

The goal of treatment will be based upon your personal goals. Through this collaborative process, I will be able to support you in making positive, healthy steps towards your goals. Although, there is no guarantee as to what you may experience, psychotherapy has been shown to be effective in improving one’s mood, relationships, overall well-being, and decreasing distress. Psychotherapy is an investment and commitment to yourself, and your goals.

I am out of network with insurance providers, but I am able to provide a superbill upon request.

The length of treatment depends largely upon the goals of treatment, the complexity of issues involved, and your own motivation, honesty and openness to creating change in your life.

My experience has been that the more a client is invested and motivated to create and maintain daily change, the quicker and more effective therapy is.

Good Faith Estimate: You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” Under the law, health care providers need to give clients who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. Your health care provider must give you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your service. You can also ask your health care provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
