Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept insurance?Yes. I'm in-network with all major insurances in PA and NJ. Reach out if you're not sure whether your plan is covered and I'll give you a straight answer. You can find a general list of accepted insurances at the bottom of this page. If I'm out of network with your provider, I can give you a superbill to submit for reimbursement.
What's the cost if I'm paying out of pocket?My private pay rate is $150 per session for individuals and $175 for couples. That's it, no hidden fees, no intake charges. If cost is a real concern, just tell me. I'd rather have that conversation upfront than have it be the thing that stops you. I offer a limited number of sliding scale spots as well.
Is telehealth actually as good as in-person?In my experience, yes, though everyone’s needs are different. Most people find that being in their own space makes it easier to show up, not harder. The research backs that up too. What matters is whether you're willing to do the work, not whether we're in the same room.
How long does therapy take?It depends on what you're dealing with and how far you want to go. Some people come in with something specific and are in a solid place within a few months. Others want to go deeper and stay longer. I'm not going to keep you in therapy you don't need, and I'm not going to rush you out before you're ready. We check in on your goals as we go.
How often do we meet?Weekly to start, in most cases. That's where you build momentum. Once things are moving, some people shift to bi-weekly and then monthly, but that's a conversation, not a default. We'll find what actually works for you.
Are you taking on new clients?Yes, though I have a waiting list for majority of my slots. I will never schedule with a client before knowing that our schedules align, so I will reach out to confirm upon initial contact. Schedule a free 15-minute consult and we'll figure out if it's a good fit. If it's not, I'll tell you, and I'll point you somewhere that is.
