Frequently Asked Questions
Do you do in-person or virtual sessions?
Both! I encourage in-person appointments for EMDR and art therapy, but virtual (phone or video call) is always an option. My office is in Wheat Ridge on 38th Ave, just east of Wadsworth Blvd.
Do I need to live in Colorado to work with you?
I am accepting new clients who live in Colorado or Florida. I am out-of-network with insurance in Florida.
Do you accept insurance?
I accept Kaiser Permanente or out-of-pocket pay.
Some insurance plans offer out-of-network benefits for behavioral health, which means you can be reimbursed for a percentage of the cost of therapy if I am not in-network with your insurance company. I can assist you in finding out if you have out-of-network benefits and I will provide a monthly itemized receipt (called a superbill) for you to submit for reimbursement.
Unfortunately, because I am not a Medicaid or Medicare provider, I cannot see clients with these forms of insurance, even for self-pay.
What are your self-pay rates and how long are sessions?
Individual sessions are 55 minutes and cost $180.
I do not charge for letter writing for established clients (ex: FMLA/STD/FAMLI paperwork, ADA accommodations, Emotional Support Animals).
When appropriate, I may recommend and offer back-to-back sessions. These extended sessions of up to 110 minutes – although never required – are ideal for going deeper with intensive EMDR and/or art therapy.
Do you offer a sliding scale?
I do not offer sliding scale rates. If I am not in-network with your insurance, I can help you find out if you have out-of-network benefits that will make therapy more affordable. I also welcome HSA and FSA as forms of payment.
Are you LGBTQ+ affirming?
Absolutely! I am proud to be part of the LGBTQ+ community and identify as a lesbian. Some clients seek me out specifically because of this, but I work with people from a wide range of backgrounds and identities. Everyone is welcome in my practice.
Can you work with me if I don't work in healthcare or human services?
This is my specialty but I have some clients from other professional backgrounds. Please schedule a consultation so we can decide if it feels like a good fit.
How often will we meet?
New clients typically see the best results from weekly therapy sessions. I ask clients to see me once a week for 8 weeks so we can become comfortable together and make progress toward your therapeutic goals. After that, we can decide whether it makes sense to decrease the frequency of sessions. More frequent sessions can also be accommodated, especially if you are struggling and need additional support.
