Getting to know John Grady
Greetings, and thank you in advance for reading my profile. Oftentimes, simply contacting a counselor is among the most challenging steps of the counseling journey… Congratulations! I help clients to appreciate their resiliency, adaptability, and courage – which are often unappreciated or even unknown – to empower progress towards clinical goals. My approach includes working with clients to accurately diagnose obstacles to wellness and to employ evidence-based treatment approaches to remove those obstacles. I use data to estimate if my interventions are effective… my hope is to promote steady and meaningful progress every week.

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.
