Frequently asked questions:
Who do you typically work with?
I have worked with doctors, businessmen, community/faith leaders, stay-at-home moms, lawyers, craftsmen, first-responders, and more. All are welcome and I provide the level of discretion needed for people in sensitive and high-profile roles.
What ages do you work with?
For Psychological Testing, I can work with patients as young as 2 years old.
For Psychotherapy, I see adults 18+.
Do you see couples or families?
I do see couples for Psychotherapy, and I love to do so!
I do not typically take on families for therapy.
Do you take insurance?
Sometimes, and only for psychotherapy. Due to the compromises of quality needed to use insurance, I try to avoid it. However, I do understand that some patients can only access psychotherapy if they use their insurance. So, as long as each patient understands the risks of using insurance (see here), I do accept:
Aetna
Quest Behavioral Health
What are your fees for services?
Intakes are $235/60 mins, and psychotherapy sessions are $205/50 mins. Couples, with their increased complexity, are $255/50 mins.
Psychological assessments are a multi-step process and can range from $1550-$4450.
That seems like a lot of money, doesn’t it?
Absolutely. But, it is a question of priorities and potential. If I told you we could (over time) fix your marriage, move past trauma, or help you succeed at work for $205/week, that would sound like a pretty good deal.
It can be good to think of this like a Psychological Investment Account: the more you put in over time, the better life can be.
