Answers

1. What kind of issues do you treat?

I am licensed in both Mental Health Counseling and Marriage & Family Therapy in Florida, so I work with mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, OCD, grief, life stage, adjustment and trauma, as well as with couples and families.

2. How often will I have to come in?

Most clients will come in every 2 to 3 weeks at first; more often if there is a crisis, less often as things improve.  I give "homework," tailored to your needs. I find this empowers clients and the time between sessions offers a fair trial of the homework.

3.What about payment?  Do you take my insurance?

The fee is $105. A sliding scale is available; those requesting a reduced fee will have to verify income (details in paperwork for new clients). I do not work with insurance. I can also process payments through your HSA and FSA.  I also have a contract with the Camaraderie Foundation, which can be reached here.

4. Is therapy like what we se in the movies?

I sure hope not!  I provide a peaceful, respectful place for healing and growth.
