If you are needing longer and more consistent sessions outside of weekly or biweekly therapy, please discuss this option with me and we will develop a plan based on your level of need.
-
I fully understand that an investment in therapy may be a challenge, so I do reserve a few spots for sliding scale and participate with a limited number of slots with Open Path. Please feel free to ask about availability.
Why Telehealth?
Telehealth makes therapy more accessible by allowing sessions to take place virtually, from the comfort of your own home. It offers flexibility, reduces travel time, and can be good for people who have tight schedules or other commitments that make in-person sessions more difficult.

FAQs
-
Services operate on a self-pay basis, meaning I do not currently participate as an "in-network" provider with insurance companies.
This approach grants you greater autonomy and flexibility in managing your therapy journey. However, I understand that financial constraints can be challenging, and don't want this to hinder your access to support.
If rates are not feasible for you, please don't hesitate to reach out to see if there are available reduced rate slots and discuss your concerns!
-
During the first session, I will conduct an initial assessment to gather information about your concerns, goals, and personal history.
Feel free to write down a list of topics or questions you'd like to discuss if that's helpful for you. Otherwise, I will go over your questionnaire and paperwork and get to know you to see if we might be a good fit! I will provide referrals if we determine that your needs would be best met with a different approach or service.

No Surprises Act
If you don’t have health insurance or you plan to pay for health care bills yourself, generally, health
care providers and facilities must give you an estimate of expected charges when you schedule an appointment for a health care item or service, or if you ask for an estimate. This is called a “good faith estimate.”
A good faith estimate isn’t a bill.
The good faith estimate shows the list of expected charges for items or services from your provider or
facility. Because the good faith estimate is based on information known at the time your provider or
facility creates the estimate, it won’t include any unknown or unexpected costs that may be added during
your treatment.
Generally, the good faith estimate must include expected charges for:
• The primary item or service
• Any other items or services you’re reasonably expected to get as part of the primary item or service
for that period of care.
The estimate might not include every item or service you get from another provider or facility, even if
some items or services may seem connected to the same service. -
Paying out of pocket grants you more privacy, autonomy and choice in your treatment frequency, types of treatment and helps me have freedom to work with you however we determine together is best for you without insurance dictating treatment.
Just like you are investing in yourself when you pay for other services, this is a major investment in your wellbeing as well.
