What should a new client know about working with you?

You have limitless possibility for enlightenment in your psychological, social and spiritual growth. You can realize your goals, strengthen your relationships and be at peace with yourself and your humanity. At times, undesirable choices you make are the result of being unaware of the influences behind the choices. This may be the result of: learned behavior, trauma, abuse, negative thinking patterns and other impacts which cause persistent unawareness. This may be expressed in: anxiety, depression, impulsivity, substance use, isolative behavior, social withdrawal and self-sabotage, as well as diminished spirituality among other manifestations.

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.
