Getting to know Kristina DeGaetano

Hi, I'm Kristina, a licensed clinical social worker in Maryland and North Carolina. I earned my Master's in Social Work from the State University of New York, Buffalo. Are you feeling stressed out and overwhelmed? Do difficult thoughts and feelings make it hard to enjoy activities you once loved or affect your relationships with important people in your life? I help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and other clinical concerns. I will support and guide you on your therapy journey. Everyone is unique, so I don't use a "one size fits all" approach. I incorporate elements of evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered therapy, and mindfulness techniques.

What should a new client know about working with you?

During sessions, we will take a look at what difficult stuff has been impacting you and identify what is important to you. Together we will practice new skills and techniques to unhook from the difficult thoughts and feelings that are getting in the way of you living the life you want to live.

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.
