Getting to know Neffertee Richards
Are you tired of going to counselors who don't listen? I am a good listener and allow clients to process their feelings in a safe space. It is my goal that my clients feel comfortable and safe because this is where you will make the most progress toward your goals. I come into each session with no judgment, no criticism, and I am not here to give you advice either. Each person must come to their own decisions and be content with their choices. I will be walking with you as you move through situations.
I seek to provide culturally competent counseling to all individuals. I have worked in a variety of settings, including youth group homes, schools, hospitals, and private practices. I have experience working with individuals, children, families, couples, and groups. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to support clients effectively on their journey to wellness.
What should a new client know about working with you?
The first session is an assessment Intake and requires gathering information and working on goals and treatment plan. In the sessions thereafter we will be working on progressing towards your goal. That may consist of identifying triggers, providing coping skills, processing trauma, improving communication skills, healthy anger management skills etc.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
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.
