“Talking with Walter, I feel he truly understands me. During sessions, I have insightful moments where he hits the nail on the head, and I realize, "That's it!"
Walter's a great listener and provides clear, precise analysis. I've made significant behavioral progress since starting therapy with him, and the experience has been liberating and extremely positive so far.
I'm very happy and feel lucky to have him as my therapist.”

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.

Walter is amazing and has helped me in many ways!

Walter has a quality of genuineness I believe helps to develop our counselor/counselee relationship. He builds trust and makes it easy to discuss difficult issues. His willingness to listen, reflect on the conversation then offer solutions shows he is invested in positive outcomes which makes the counseling sessions feel less clinical.
