  • Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
  • Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront

Working with Alexandra is the highlight of my week. She is responsive, caring, and creates a very safe space.
Alexandra has a vague approach to therapy and told me that my asking for more direction was me asking her to do the work. She arrived at our session today in a very confrontational manner and basically told me she didn’t think I was working hard enough on my therapy outside of our sessions. Prior to this, she gave no constructive feedback or guidance on what she wanted me to do other than “think about things” or “write down some thoughts.” She was also upset that I wasn’t using the patient inbox to communicate with her, though she never mentioned it previously. Early in the conversation, I told her that if it wasn’t a good fit, we could both move on with no hard feelings, but she insisted on continuing to list all the things she didn’t like about me as a patient. I found it to be a very bizarre and unprofessional approach from a therapist. I think she has a lot of growth to do as a therapist.
Alexandra is an exceptional therapist who skillfully guided me through exploring my relationships, identity, sexuality, gender, and emotional well-being. Their insights and support were invaluable in my personal growth journey. I highly recommend Alexandra to anyone seeking a warm, caring, and affirming therapist to navigate life's challenges and discover their authentic self.

I can’t speak enough to how much Alexandra has helped me. When I did therapy in the past it was an experience that almost made me give up on seeking care altogether. It was rushed and cryptic and at some times more hurtful than helpful. I’m very grateful to have encountered Alexandra when I decided to step back into it, she is not only constructive and attentive but also a very patient professional. I look forward to working with her more on my journey.
