Getting to know Dean Lederfeind
I will never tell you what to do; I will ask you where you want to be. Therapy is a journey, and should we work together, please know how honored I am to travel with you for a time. While my background is eclectic, and I am trained in DBT, CBT, and psychodynamic approaches, I have found my best work to be in the realm of the existential. Finding our own purpose in life—what it means to us through the lens of our experience—and how we can make sense of it all in this absurd world, that's the crux. What are we afraid of, and why? If you are ready to work on those questions, I am quite sure our sessions will be what you are after.
I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Denver and have been working in the field of mental health for over thirty years. I have worked across various milieus, utilizing a wide array of modalities.
I am accepting new clients. At this time, I am only providing therapy via telehealth. I have found it to be an effective platform for many and certainly makes sessions more accessible to busy schedules. I will work on fees with you and provide you with an invoice for insurance.
What should a new client know about working with you?
We will start with "Why now?" I often find that clients have been suffering for some time, but there is a specific catalyst that brings them in on that first session. From there, once we establish the premise, we go for the existential meat and figure out our goals if our space affords us this. It will be done on your timeline, at your pace.

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.
