+ Do you see clients in person?

Yes, I see clients in person in my office in Decatur, GA. I have also been offering sessions via teletherapy through a HIPPA compliant secure online portal called Simple Practice.

+ What is teletherapy like?

I recommend having a private space for at least 1 hour and a good internet connection to improve video quality.

I am only licensed in the State of Georgia; all clients must be in Georgia for all appointments.

You will also be asked to verify your current address at the beginning of each appointment, in case of severe emergency.

+ What is a session like with you?

I have been described to have a very inviting, warm and highly colloborative approach with clients.

+ What should I expect in the first session?

In our initial intake session we will be reviewing the consent form packet and any initial session paperwork you have completed. I hope to get a holistic view of you, set goals together and answer any questions you may have.

+ Can I bring my baby to my therapy appointments?

In most cases yes! It can actually be helpful to bring your baby to some or many of your therapy appointments. I am happy to discuss this in more detail at your first appointment.

+ What is your rate for a session?

First initial intake session: 55+ mins | $165

Therapy Session: 55 mins | $150

+ Do you take insurance?

I do not take insurance. I am able to provide a superbill for possible reimbursement of your counseling sessions. I encourage you to contact your insurance company and ask about the reimbursement rate of out-of-network providers. See the insurance section of my website for more info on why I do not take insurance.

+ How many sessions will I need?

This depends on the reason bringing you here. Usually clients need more frequent therapy in the beginning. Once they begin feeling better, sessions are decreased. As everyone is different, this will be a collaborative process and a conversation with each client.

+ How frequently should I attend?

This depends on the person and their needs. However, regular attendance is important to ensure you full benefit in the long-term. Clients usually start at weekly, then biweekly, and then drop down from there for as needed sessions.
