Thank you! This first step is usually the most difficult - I appreciate you taking the time to reach out. I will get back to you within 48 hours of receiving your request! In the meantime, take a look at some of the frequently asked questions and answers below.
COVID-19 Update
Due to COVID-19, all therapy sessions are virtual (video or telephone). I use a HIPAA compliant platform that ensures your information remains confidential. In order to protect those more vulnerable to the virus, no exceptions will be made. Both regular therapy and EMDR therapy can be conducted virtually.
Insurance
I currently do not work in network with any insurance panels. My practice is private pay, meaning fees are due each session “out of pocket”. I collect payment at the time of appointment by storing your card on file. I do, however, have many clients that get reimbursed by their insurance company for seeing an “out of network” provider. I highly recommend calling your insurance company to ask about their coverage. I provide you with monthly statements that have all the information your insurance company will ask for.
In addition, there is an amazing service called “Reimbursify”. Check out www.reimbursify.com to see how their service works. They will do your out-of-network billing for you. All you need to do is update your insurance information and your invoices. Reimbursify will take a small fee, and send you the rest of your reimbursement.
Scheduling
Evening sessions are often in high demand, resulting in very limited availability. I cannot guarantee an evening appointment time, however I can make you aware should one become available. We'll discuss the best options going forward!
Fees & Payment
My fee per 50 minute session is $200. At the moment I have no sliding scale spaces open in my practice, but I can put you on the list to wait for one to open up. For online therapy I accept major debit/credit cards, and most HSA or FSA cards (small processing fees apply).
Online Therapy
I offer HIPPA compliant online therapy. If you are located within Washington state at the time of the session and have a smart phone, tablet, or computer with video capabilities, you can qualify for setting up an online appointment. Due to regulations, I am unable to see people who are physically located outside of Washington state.
