Frequently Asked Questions 

​

How much and how long are sessions?

​​

Standard individual therapy sessions are 50 minutes and cost $225. Parent coaching, co-parent counseling, and family therapy sessions are $250 for a 50 minute session. Group therapy session duration and price vary by group. The limited number of sliding scale spots for those who hold marginalized identities are all currently full.

Do you see clients in-person or virtually?​​

​​​

​​​Both! I see clients in-person in my office in the Poncey Highlands neighborhood of Atlanta as well as virtually Monday thru Friday. As I am currently only licensed in Georgia, all therapy clients must be located in the state of Georgia during our sessions. Whenever possible, I prefer that new clients begin with a few in-person meetings before transitioning to virtual or hybrid sessions.

Do you take insurance?

​

My practice does not take any insurance, though a "superbill" will be provided if you have out of network benefits and wish to file for reimbursement. While accepting insurance can make therapy more accessible for many, it also comes with several problematic complications. Insurance companies require a diagnosis and clinically sensitive private information that can be needlessly intrusive and pathologizing. Because this information becomes part of a client's medical record it can be used to limit access to other benefits. Insurance companies also dictate the amount and types of sessions they approve and coverage changes with each year and employment. I believe you deserve comprehensive, private, and integrated mental health care that is not dictated by outside forces.

​

Who do you not work with? 

​

Because I want everyone to get tailored and expert care, I know I am not the best therapist for everyone. I only work with individual adult clients and do not provide couples/relationship therapy. I am not the right therapist for you if you have active disordered eating, substance abuse, acute mental illness, or need frequent contact outside of sessions. As I work with many survivors of various abuses, I do not work with those who have been charged with violent crimes. My office does not allow any weapons of any kind on the premises.
