Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to some common questions about working together. If you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

What are your counseling rates?

I charge $160 per 55-minute counseling session and accept HSA and FSA cards, as well as all major credit cards.

I can provide a superbill for you to file with your insurance for possible reimbursement of up to 80% (depending on your insurance plan), if I am out-of-network with your insurance.

I am in network with several insurance providers as well (see next question for more information).

Do you accept insurance?

I am currently an in-network with Aetna, Quest Behavioral Health, and United Healthcare (UMR, Optum, Oscar, and Oxford).

For other insurance providers, I would be considered an "out-of-network" provider. However, many policies have "out-of-network" coverage, so your treatment may still be covered by insurance.

I am happy to provide you with the information you need to file a claim with your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

Where do we meet for sessions?

My counseling practice is completely virtual, and I use HIPAA-compliant software to meet with clients throughout the vast and beautiful state of Texas.

I use specific EMDR software (with video embedded) to assist with bilateral eye movements and synchronized tones for remote EMDR work.

The benefits of working remotely include accessibility, flexibility with scheduling, and being able to do this type of work from the comfort of your home, and not having to drive or commute afterwards.

During our free 15-minute consultation, we will discuss if working virtually feels like a good fit for you, and I am happy to answer any questions you might have.

Do you have evening/weekend availability?

Yes, I see clients Tuesday through Thursday from 9 AM until 6:00 PM, and I have Saturday morning appointments available.

How often should we meet?

Typically, my new clients begin with weekly sessions and then might switch to meeting every other week once they have begun to see progress toward their goals.

I have clients who meet weekly, every other week, or once a month for maintenance. We can develop a schedule together that meets your individual needs.

Where are you licensed?

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. Because my practice is completely virtual, I am able to work with anyone currently residing in Texas.

If you are living in Texas and looking for support, I would love to connect with you during a free 15-minute consultation to see if we might be a good fit.

What does working with you look like?

I strive to create a safe, warm environment where empathy is emphasized and practicing being present is encouraged.

We will co-create meaningful goals together and use evidence-based practices to work through blocks and transform limiting beliefs.

My many years of experience as a counselor and EMDR-trained therapist, as well as experience with somatic techniques, ground me as a guide to transformation and growth.

I'm happy to offer a free 15-minute consultation phone call to answer any questions and see if we might be a good fit.

What is the "Good Faith Estimate" notice?

Patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much their medical care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
  • Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
  • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
  • Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
