Frequently Asked Questions

I’ll do my best to demystify what therapy is, how my practice works, and what you can expect. If you have a question you don’t see here, contact me!


What is the first step?

We will set up a time for us to chat briefly (a free 10-15 minute phone consultation) to determine we’re a good fit. If we decide to move forward, we’ll discuss scheduling an initial appointment. I’ll answer any additional questions you may have about me or the process of therapy.


What do I need to do before the first session?

We’ll email you all necessary consent forms that you’ll need to complete before our first session.




How do I schedule an appointment?

You may request an appointment by using our online scheduler or by emailing us.




What is your self-pay rate?

Initial intake sessions are $190. All ongoing individual sessions are $170.



Do you accept insurance?

Yes, we accept BCBS of IL PPO. We can also provide you with a Superbill for out-of-network benefits, should you have them and choose to use them.




How long are sessions and how often will we meet?

Sessions are 55 minutes. Typically we will meet weekly, however depending on need, we may decide to meet biweekly. We can discuss this further during our initial visit.



Do you offer telehealth or in-person sessions? How are they conducted?

We are currently offering both telehealth and in-person sessions. Telehealth sessions are conducted through a HIPAA compliant platform called Simple Practice.




Do you see children, couples, or families?

We work only with individual adults (ages 18+).




What is your cancellation policy?

We reserve your requested appointment time exclusively for you. With that said, we require 24 hours notice for all cancellations and reschedules. Late reschedules, late cancellations and missed appointments will result in a fee.
