FAQS
Here are some frequently asked questions about working with me. If you don’t see your question, get in touch.
-
I’m licensed in Florida, and offer telehealth in over 40 states via the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT). As long as you’re physically located in a PSYPACT state at the time of each session (whether that’s home or somewhere you’re traveling), I can see you. Since states are still joining, please check here for the most current list.
-
No, I am fully telehealth. If you know you want in-person, then I’m not the best fit. If you’re open, but hesitant, let’s talk about it on a call. I’m happy to answer any questions and tell you why I love it so much.
-
No, I don’t bill insurance directly. My clients pay out-of-pocket. Not billing insurance means you and I decide what’s right for you, rather than a third-party dictating your care. However, if you don’t mind involving insurance, you can seek reimbursement to offset the cost of therapy. See my investment page for information on how this works.
-
Our first session is an “initial evaluation.” You don’t have to do anything to prepare; just show up ready to answer some questions about yourself. I’ll ask about mental and physical health, work or school, relationships, and what you do for fun—paying close attention to how anxiety, OCD, or perfectionism shows up in each of these areas. I’ll ask about what’s going well, and where you’d like to see change.
-
I recommend most people start weekly and plan to commit to at least 4 months. With regular attendance and practice, you should see meaningful changes in that time. We’ll reassess your goals and symptoms, and ensure you feel solid in the skills you’ve learned. Then we’ll wrap up, schedule a few follow up sessions, or continue with another round of therapy. Every person’s plan and timeline is unique, but you’ll know where you stand.
