I offer both standard therapy and DBT therapy.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) follows a specific and more structured protocol in treatment. It has been researched as an effective modality to help in individuals who struggle with emotional regulation, impulsivity, persistent difficulty in interpersonal relationships, self-harm behaviors, and suicidal/homicidal ideation. DBT also includes in-the-moment phone coaching to help individuals use DBT skills in real-time and seek assistance if they get stuck.
Standard therapy allows for more flexibility in our work together. It is what most people think of when they think about talk therapy. I still utilize specific counseling theory and interventions, however, standard therapy provides more flexibility within our sessions in topics we explore and activities used.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services.
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
