New Client Information

Welcome to my practice!

I look forward to working with you. On this page you’ll find information about booking your first appointment, as well as answers to frequently asked questions.

Booking your first session

Getting started is simple, however the steps for couples and individuals are slightly different, so please click the one that applies to you.

  • • Step One

    Phone Consultation

    Please call me for a free 15-minute consultation to discuss your needs, my availability, and to ensure that I am the best fit for you. If for any reason we decide that you might be better suited with a different type of therapist I will try and provide you with a referral.

    • Step Two

    Register As a New Client Online

    Once we have scheduled an appointment over the phone I will need you to register as a new client using my secure, HIPAA-compliant platform called Therapy Appointment.

    Use this direct link to my client portal.

    Kindly register at least two days before our first visit.

    • Step Three

    Complete Your Intake Paperwork

    After I am notified that you have registered I will upload a few important documents for you to review and sign before your first appointment.

    • Step Four

    Our Telehealth Visit

    For added security, a unique link is generated for each session. It is made available to you and me 15 minutes before the start time of our session. You can access the link either of these ways:

    1) You will get an email once I’ve started the session so you can check your inbox and click the link.

    or

    2) Log in to Therapy Appointment and click the blue button to the right of your telehealth appointment that says “Launch.”

    You will be brought to a virtual waiting area and I will meet you at the top of the hour.

    Note: If you plan to use your phone for your Telehealth session please download the Zoom App before our first session.

  • • Step One

    Phone Consultation

    One or both partners can call me for a free 15-minute consultation to discuss your needs, my availability, and to ensure that I am the best fit for you. If for any reason we decide that you might be better suited with a different type of therapist I will try and provide you with a referral.

    • Step Two

    Create a Couples Account Online

    Once we have scheduled an appointment over the phone I will need only one of you to register using my secure, HIPAA-compliant platform called Therapy Appointment.

    Please note that you only make ONE account and that you will share the login and password information.

    Use this direct link to my client portal.

    Kindly register at least two days before our first visit.

 FAQs

 

  • I accept self-pay only at this time. I will happily provide you with the documentation needed for reimbursement if you have “out-of-network” coverage.

  • My fee for Individual Therapy is $200 for 50-minutes, and my fee for Couples Therapy is $240 for a 55-minute session. I accept cash, check, and all major credit cards.

  • I would recommend calling your insurance company and asking them directly. Once you have the information, I can help you navigate the process.

  • Yes! Once I have been paid for the session I will give you a “Superbill”, which is a receipt with all of the information you need on it so that you can submit it to your insurance company for reimbursement.
