Answers1. 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. 5. How do I get started? Please call or email today. I provide a brief free phone consult (usually 10-15 minutes), which gives you a chance to interview me to see if I seem like the right person for you to work with, and lets me ascertain if my skill set is the right one for your individual needs. 6. I provide research-based therapy, personalized for each client's particular needs. I consider personality traits and client preferences. Many people want to incorporate their deeply-held values into the counseling process; for them, their faith is incorporated into the counseling process. Clients of all faiths, and clients who do not have any religious belief or association, are very welcome. |
