    During your first session, I will spend time getting to know you and your needs for therapy. The second session you will begin planning your treatment with goals for your path towards sexual and relationship healing.

    For couples therapy, the sessions will include both you and your partner. Following the first session, depending on need, an individual interview sessions may take place to allow each partner to build rapport with me and discuss personal background. The fourth session you will return together and discuss treatment options and goals for therapy.

  • Insurance accepted for Headway and Alma clients only.

    Insurance typically does not cover Sex Therapy and only reimburses for couples counseling when one partner is identified as the primary client with a qualifying mental health diagnosis.

    There are both advantages and disadvantages to using insurance for counseling. One potential drawback is that a formal mental health diagnosis must be submitted to your insurance provider, which may reduce your privacy. This diagnosis can impact future eligibility for life insurance, certain types of employment (particularly those requiring high-level security clearance), and may also limit the number or type of sessions covered.

    The primary benefit of using insurance is reduced out-of-pocket costs.

    I encourage you to research and weigh the options based on your needs, preferences, and long-term goals for therapy.

  • Step 1: Call your insurance provider. You can find the Member Services number on the back of your insurance card.

    Step 2: Ask if your plan includes out-of-network benefits for outpatient mental health services, including individual and/or couples therapy.

    Step 3: Inquire about your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum:

    • Once you meet your deductible, your plan may begin covering a percentage of the session cost (this is called co-insurance).

    • Once you reach your out-of-pocket maximum, many plans cover 100% of eligible expenses.

    Step 4: Ask how much your plan will reimburse:

    “What is the maximum allowed amount for individual and/or couples therapy with an out-of-network provider, and what percentage of that amount will my plan reimburse?”

    This percentage of the maximum allowed amount is what you can expect to be reimbursed.

    Please note: You are responsible for verifying your coverage and determining whether your plan will reimburse you for out-of-network services.

  • An appointment reminder will be sent 48-hours prior to your next appointment. Any cancellations within less than 24-hour notice will be charged a full service fee, with the exception of emergency situations.

  • When I'm on a waitlist for new clients, the wait time can range from 1 to 6 months, depending on the time of day you're hoping to schedule.

    Evening appointments tend to have the longest wait (approximately 3 to 6 months), while earlier daytime appointments typically have a shorter wait (around 1 to 3 months).

    I’ll ask for your preferred time slot and will contact you when an opening becomes available. Please note, I generally hold the spot for 24 hours before offering it to the next person on the waitlist if I haven’t heard back.
