Questions?
Here are some of the most common questions I get about working together.
If you don’t see your question listed or are ready to schedule a free consultation, contact me.
Where are you located?
I am fully virtual. All sessions are conducted via Simple Practice, a HIPAA-compliant platform.
Do you see clients that do not live in New Jersey?
I am only licensed in New Jersey, meaning I am only allowed to offer services to clients physically located in the state at the time of their session.
How long are sessions?
That is determined by your individual needs. But typically, sessions can be anywhere between 45-55 minutes.
How frequent are sessions?
Typically, sessions are one time a week.
Do you take insurance?
No. I am an out-of-network provider. This means I do not accept insurance. If requested, I can provide you with what is known as a "superbill" for you to submit to your insurance for reimbursement. For more information on Superbills, please refer here.
What are your fees?
$150 for a 55-minute session.
**I offer a sliding scale for existing and prospective clients who are experiencing financial hardship and exhibit a financial need. Please contact me to discuss your particular situation.
How do you accept payments?
I accept payment through my EHR System, a HIPPA-compliant payment system that accepts all major credit, debit, and HSA cards.
What can I expect for my first appointment?
In our first session, we will begin getting to know one another, and you will have to floor to share as much as you feel comfortable about yourself and your current concerns. I know sometimes this can feel strange and too open-ended, and in that case, I will ask questions to help us enter into the conversation.
How long do I need to be in therapy?
This is dependent on your needs and goals. This journey is unique for everyone, and I tailor my approach to meet you where you are on yours, and we check in at points throughout the process about this.
What is a Good Faith Estimate?
A “Good Faith Estimate” explains how much your medical and mental health care will cost. You can ask for this before you schedule a session.
Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. Please inform me if you do not have insurance or don’t plan to use insurance, and you will be provided with a Good Faith Estimate.
