Getting to know Cora McElwain
We often have what we need within us to heal, but sometimes anxiety, depression, trauma, or internal conflict can get in the way of using that knowledge to make the progress we want to feel. Have you been trying to wake up on time but find depression standing in your way? Or have you wanted to start or complete projects but keep procrastinating? Therapy can help you cope with the stressful things in your life so you can move forward in the way you want to. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Washington University in St. Louis, and I am committed to supporting you on your journey toward healing and growth.
What should a new client know about working with you?
As a therapist, my job is to help you talk through problems, explore emotions, set boundaries, change behavior, or cope with symptoms to help unlock change or understanding in order to heal, recover, and grow. I love integrating a client's hobbies, interests or passions into therapy sessions. So, please share your love of soccer or fantasy novels or crafting, and we can use that energy and passion in our therapy work together!

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.
