Frequently Asked Questions

What are your fees?

My therapeutic sessions are 50 minutes long and range from $130 to $110.  My coaching sessions are also 50 minutes long and are $150. Sessions are scheduled at a frequency to be determined by the therapist and the client(s).  Any phone calls that last longer than 15 minutes will be charged at a pro-rated amount.  A limited number of exceptions to these rates may be made for clients or in the case of extenuating financial circumstances.  Fees are payable at the end of each session by credit card, check, or cash.  Sessions that are canceled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours notice will be charged at the above rate.  


Do you take insurance?

I am considered an out-of-network provider.  I am licensed and may provide a receipt for therapy services for you to send to your insurance provider.  I cannot guarantee that you will be reimbursed for services and encourage you to contact your insurance company prior to our first session. For those seeking coaching services and are not within the State of GA, I am unfortunately unable to provide a bill that can be utilized for insurance reimbursements.


How do I get started?

Simply contact me!  You can send an email, give me a call, or complete the form under the "contact" page.  Leave me a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can.  I like to have a brief phone conversation so that we have an opportunity to get to know one another, discuss logistics or questions you may have, and schedule an appointment.


When are you available?

I hold office hours on Monday thru Thursday morning, afternoon, and some evenings.  

What is the process like?

The journey is different for everyone.  Therapy is not about feeling "better" but about feeling "authentically".  It is important that we seek to establish an open and collaborative relationship in which we can discuss your needs, hopes, and expectations as we develop goals for your therapy.  Additionally, because you will be discussing some unpleasant aspects of your life, it is important to recognize that you will likely experience some intense feelings.  Not only is this normal, it is beneficial.  Typically, I like to see clients once a week in the beginning to establish rapport.  Then a step-down process can begin as goals are met.  The "end" of services is about maintenance.  Just like having periodic doctor or dentist visits, therapy can be beneficial for sustained amounts of time as stressors arise in our lives.

The journey for coaching is also quite different for everyone; however, the process compared to therapy is quite unique. Instead of focusing on feeling “authentic” to ourself, we are looking at very specific goals in a very specific arena. We do sometimes have to work on some unpleasant aspects within that arena but the tone and focus in moving forwards and upwards towards achieving greatness.
