SCHEDULING & FEES

HOURS & SCHEDULING

My office hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 am - 6:00 pm.   I am currently only offering telehealth sessions due to COVID-19 until further notice. 

I recommend you contact your insurance to verify they provide telehealth benefits prior to scheduling your appointment.

  • $140 per 55 minute family therapy session
  • $65 for cancellation with less than 24 hours notice or no show to appointment
  • $30-35 per session average session cost for workshops, seminars (each series has package fee posted on my Groups & Workshops page)
Cash, check and all major credit cards are accepted for payment. Please request a therapy appointment below via my Contact Form.

INSURANCE

I offer individual and family therapy sessions and am an in network provider for most BCBS plans (except Blue Home and Blue Local), the NC State Employees/Retirees Health Plan (SHP) and Aetna.  

I am an Out of Network provider with other Insurance Carriers. Services may be covered in full or in part by your employee benefit plan or health insurance, for Out of Network providers.

Some common questions to ask in reviewing your coverage include:
  1. Do I have mental health insurance benefits? 
  2. What is my deductible and has it been met?
  3. How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
  4. What is my cost/copay per therapy session?
  5. Is prior authorization needed from my insurance company before therapy starts?
