Brief Consultation – Free
15 Minutes by phone or online video conference
A brief consultation is to help me understand your concerns and reasons for counseling and so you can learn more about my online therapy services. If we both feel it’s a good fit for working together, we can then move forward.
Initial Assessment – $200
60 Minutes by online video conference
At the initial assessment we discuss more fully the problems and concerns which lead you to seek out counseling, your personal history, current symptoms, and goals for therapy. An initial treatment plan will be developed collaboratively between you and I.
Individual Therapy Sessions – $200
60 Minutes by online video conference or 45 minutes Walk-and-Talk Therapy session at a nearby park in Maple Valley (weekly or bi-weekly)
I provide a safe and therapeutic space to assist you in your process towards healing and self-improvement. Talk therapy will involve discussing your concerns and life experiences and I will ask questions and share my observations with you. We will discuss your strengths and work on building upon these to address areas of concern. Individual therapy sessions are 50 minutes and usually occur at a regularly scheduled time once or every other week.
Payment
Payment is due at time of service. I accept all major credit and debit cards (This also includes FSA and HSA cards). A credit card is required to be kept on file for payment of sessions.
Insurance
I am an In-Network Provider (INN) with Premera Blue Cross of Washington. Insurance is required to cover telehealth visits as the same as an in-person office visit in Washington State. Benefits are based upon the member’s specific plan and so you will want to contact your insurance ahead of time determine any costs to you.
I am an Out-of-Network (OON) provider for all other insurances. After you have paid for your session, I can provide you with a receipt of paid services to submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. If you are planning to use your OON benefits, it is your responsibility to work with your insurance to determine reimbursement.
Please note: All insurance companies require a mental health diagnosis in your chart in order for behavioral health services to be paid for by the insurance company.
