Frequently Aksed Questions
Before I meet with you for the first time, I’ll have you fill out a brief questionnaire, a screening tool or two, and I’ll check your insurance benefits if you’re using insurance. The first session is technically considered “the assessment,” but I’m often mapping a person’s story with them for the first few visits. I want us to be on the same page about what you’ve been through, so we can figure out where you’re headed and what you need to get there.
I am an in-network provider for four insurance plans:
- Aetna
- Blue Cross Blue Shield
- United Healthcare and subsidiaries
The cost per session depends on the terms of your specific plan. I’ll check your benefits before we get started and I’ll file claims after each appointment.
If you choose to work with me without insurance, I’ll also provide a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) so you’ll have a clear idea of your potential costs over the next 12 months. My current rates are listed below.
Initial diagnostic assessment: $185
53-60 minute session: $185
37-45 minute session: $138.75
15-36 minute session: $92.50
If you have insurance but I am not in-network, I can provide detailed guidance on the process of checking out-of-network benefits and filing an out-of-network claim.
I had a practice in Greenville, South Carolina from 2016-2021 in a beautiful building on Toy Street. In 2021, I moved home to the Chicago area. I still have my license in South Carolina and love maintaining connections with clients and colleagues in South Carolina through telehealth sessions. I plan to keep it going indefinitely, so new clients from South Carolina are welcome!
I love having a hybrid in-person/telehealth practice in Illinois. My Oak Park office is in the beautiful historic Scoville Square building.
