Q: What types of therapy do you offer? A: Eye movement Desensitization Reprocessing therapy (EMDR) Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) IFS Informed EMDR Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) As well as: Sand tray therapy, Expressive Arts Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction
Q: Do you accept insurance for payment of therapy? A: No. I am a non participating provider/ out of network with insurance panels. Some insurance policies offer out of network services, which can include therapy. Please contact your insurance directly to determine your eligibility. I can provide you with a superbill at the end of each month that you can submit to your insurance company in their claim process for potential reimbursement to you. You will be responsible for payment of your therapy at the time services are rendered and your insurance company would reimburse you, if eligible. I do not bill insurance for many reasons, finding that after years of being an in network provider the increasing demands on my time outside of client sessions in order to justify care for clients and obtain reimbursement was not only burning me out as a clinician, but was taking more and more of my time away from what I am here to do, which is provide excellent evidenced based therapy services to you. By making this intentional shift in my practice, I am able to focus my resources on you and your therapeutic care and grow my practice.
