Yes, I offer free 15-minute consultations to see if we’re a good fit. Please send me an email or text message to schedule. If we are not a good fit, I will provide referrals for someone who may be a better therapist for you.
Sex therapy is a form of talk therapy that address concerns to include, but not limited to, low libido, partner libido differences, painful intercourse, orgasm difficulties, and intimacy concerns. Sex therapy focused on increased sexual wellness and communication. There is no touching in sex therapy–the therapist does not touch you or request you to touch yourself in sessions.
Nope! Couples therapy isn’t just for married or dating couples–it’s a valuable resource for anyone in a close, intimate partnership. Whether it’s a romantic relationship, a sexual partnership, or even friendships, therapy provides a safe space to navigate communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen emotional connections. It helps partners, of any kind, understand each other better, improve trust, and develop healthier ways of relating. Regardless of the label on the relationship, therapy can offer insight and tools to foster stronger bonds and mutual respect.
Yes! If you are experiencing a hardship, underinsured/uninsured, or cannot afford the out-of-pocket fee, I collaborate with Open Path Collective. You will need to click the link here, register online and pay the one-time $65 fee to join Open Path. Your lifetime membership gives you access to sliding scale sessions as long as there is financial need.
I reserve 25% of available sessions to those in need.
It can offer you a few significant advantages. First, it gives you more control over your care. Insurance companies often have limits on the number of sessions, the types of therapy covered, or even the specific providers you can see. By paying out of pocket, you’re not restricted by those limitations, and you can continue therapy as long as you feel it’s helping.
Second, paying directly for therapy can also protect your privacy. Insurance companies require diagnoses to process claims, and that information becomes part of your medical record. For some people, that’s a concern, especially if they don’t want a diagnosis tied to their history. Without insurance involvement, your sessions remain completely confidential between you and your therapist.
Finally, it can also give you more flexibility in your therapeutic approach. You’re able to work with a therapist who might not be covered by your insurance or who practices in a way that doesn’t fit into the insurance framework. You’re free to choose the therapist who feels like the best fit for your needs, without worrying about whether they’re on an approved list.
Ultimately, therapy is an investment in your well-being, and paying out of pocket can be worth it for the extra freedom, confidentiality, and continuity of care it offers.
Cancellations must be made by phone call or text at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled appointment. Otherwise, you will be charged the full session fee. You will be required to pay the fee before you can schedule your next appointment.
If you are a sliding scale client, you are subjected to be discharged from services after 2 no-shows or late cancellations.
If you are a client with reoccuring appointments, you will lose your designated day/time after 2 no-shows or late cancellations.
Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act states that if you’re paying out-of-pocket or not using insurance, you have the right to know ahead of time what your care might cost. Your provider has to give you an estimate before services start, so there are no surprises about the bill.
