Psychotherapy

Procedures and Fees

Therapy sessions

Therapy sessions are usually 50-60 minutes in length. During that time, we may utilize any of a variety of techniques which are described elsewhere. Most sessions take place in my office, although on occasions, after I have developed a relationship with a client, we have conducted sessions over the telephone. If necessary, we can negotiate for longer or shorter sessions.

Initial evaluation

When you first call my office and make an appointment, you will be asked questions regarding your insurance, your primary issue, and how you were referred. You do not need to have insurance to see me, although insurance may offset some of the costs involved. The first session will be an evaluation, in which you and I together determine your most crucial concerns, and begin to develop therapy goals.

Payment

Insurance may cover a portion of your psychotherapy services, or you may choose to pay privately. A sliding scale fee schedule may be available. You are welcome to discuss fees with me prior to your first session.
