Practice Information

  • To begin, I offer a brief complimentary phone consultation (approximately 15 minutes) to touch base and determine whether my approach may be a good fit for your needs. This conversation also gives you an opportunity to ask any initial questions about the therapy process.

    If we decide to move forward, we will schedule an initial intake session. Prior to this session, I will send you paperwork to complete. The initial intake is 50 minutes in length and is the same fee as ongoing therapy sessions. During this time, we will begin discussing the concerns that bring you to therapy, relevant background information, and what you hope to gain from our work. 

    For adolescents and teens, the initial intake typically involves meeting with parents or caregivers in order to gather background information and better understand the family context. We can then discuss together what structure feels most appropriate for your family and the therapeutic process.

  • Most therapy sessions are 50 minutes in length. In some circumstances, sessions of varying lengths may be helpful or clinically appropriate, and we can discuss these options if needed.

    Many clients begin with weekly sessions, and some clients begin with biweekly sessions. Over time, the frequency of sessions may change depending on your needs and goals. These decisions are always made collaboratively. The course of therapy varies on a case by case basis.

  • The fee for a standard 50-minute therapy session is $205. Longer sessions are prorated based on this rate.

    I am an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. However, many clients choose to use their out-of-network benefits for reimbursement. Upon request, I can provide a monthly superbill that you may submit to your insurance provider.

    If you plan to seek reimbursement, I recommend contacting your insurance company in advance to ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits.

    A limited number of sliding scale appointments are available for clients who may need financial flexibility. Sliding scale availability is limited and may vary over time.

No Surprises Act:

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. 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 bill for medical items and services.

  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

  • Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or 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.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call the Colorado Division of Insurance at 303-894-7490 or 1-800-930-3745.
