What should a new client know about working with you?

After your first visit, the appointments might be shorter. The provider will focus on checking your progress and adjusting treatments. Your provider might recommend you go back to your GP for regular check-ups. They may also arrange for you to see a psychologist, social worker or other therapist. Anything you talk about with your psychiatrist is confidential. Your provider may need to share some of your private information with other healthcare professionals for your treatment plan. Your provider might suggest involving family members in your assessment. They will discuss this with you first. A provider may be required by law to share information or a person's medical record with others. Generally, your provider will tell you first if they need to do this.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

I wish I could select more than two ways Krita Lewis' therapy style stands out. She is very direct solution oriented. Ms. Lewis listens and provides appropriate responses and interventions.
I really hope to find another psychologist like Krista, she listened and had great insight on my situation and resolutions to solve it. Explained her analysis very clearly.
So happy with my visit with Dr Lewis! She took time to listen, asked questions and truly focused on understanding my condition in order to give guidance on my next steps. Highly recommend
