Counseling

You'll often hear me say that my favorite thing about counseling is providing a space for people to be heard. Counseling is chill. At the end of the day, we're just people helping people. 

What to Expect:
If you're new to counseling, things start with a phone call. Give me a call and we'll chat about what's going and how I can help. If you decide to move forward, you'll get an email with a link to some paperwork. Similar to the kind of paperwork you'd fill out for a doctor's appointment, and you'll come in for your first session. The first session is an "Assessment" meant to gather more detailed information and create a plan to move forward. Then you'll move on to regular "Sessions." Each appointment lasts about an hour.

Cost
Your costs for counseling depend on the specifics of your insurance plan. Please call the number on the back of your insurance card to ask about your cost for mental health services. I am "in-network" with Aetna, Anthem (Blue Cross Blue Shield), Cigna (Evernorth), Medical Mutual, UHC, and some VA plans.  Your costs could vary from $0 to $125. We won't know until you check your health insurance benefits. If you don't have insurance, the cost is $100 for the assessment and $75 for the following sessions.
