Where are you located? My office is in Murray, UT. I see clients in person here, but can see anyone in the state of Utah via telemedicine!
How much does a session cost? If we are billing your insurance, they set the rate and coverage depending on your specific plan. Out of pocket is $180 for 55 minutes.
How does payment work? See my blog post for a more comprehensive answer, because this can get tricky when insurance is involved. I can take card, cash or check for copays, coinsurance and out of pocket payments. I use a software program called Therapy Notes to bill. Cards are usually charged the evening of the appointment.
What insurances do you take? Currently I am in-network and accepting clients with Compsych care management and Huntsman Mental Health Institute Behavioral Health Network (HMHI-BHN). HMHI is often part of BCBS or U of U plans, although I am not in-network with other BCBS or U of U plans. I am happy to double check if you send me your insurance card. If I am out of network with your insurance, we may still be able use your out-of-network benefits. See this blog post for more details.
How long are your sessions? 55 minutes unless we’ve decided together on a different length of time.
How do I make an appointment? I do my own scheduling! You can use my contact page or find me through my Psychology Today profile to get in touch with me.
How often should I have appointments? Up to you (and sometimes your insurance – some of them give a certain number of allowable sessions per year). I find that clients who come consistently (every 1-2 weeks) make the quickest progress. Occasionally I may request to see you sooner or more often (usually if there are safety issues present), or I may suggest that more or less frequent sessions could be beneficial for you.
How do I get a Good Faith Estimate? Send me a message and I would be happy to provide one!
Do you write letters for emotional support animals (ESA)? No. There is very little guidance for clinicians about criteria that would make for a good ESA client or animal.
