Frequently asked questionS
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE PHONE CONSULTATION AND INITIAL SESSIONS?
During our free 15 minute phone consultation I will ask you questions related to… ??? If we mutually agree to proceed, we will then meet for up to three therapeutic sessions in my office to determine together if we are a good match. Much of therapy is dependent on a good fit between the therapist and the client, so this is an opportunity for us to determine if we will work well together.
DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?
I accept Georgetown University Student Health Insurance (GUSHI). I am otherwise out-of-network for all other health insurers and can provide you with a statement of service form which can be used for reimbursement from your insurance company. Reimbursement rates vary so it is best to contact your insurance provider to understand your out-of-network deductible and benefits.
HOW OFTEN WILL WE MEET?
I begin meeting with all clients once a week. Under some circumstances I may recommend a more intensive period of treatment.
HOW LONG WILL THERAPY LAST?
Until we begin meeting it will be hard to know how long therapy will take. Some circumscribed concerns can be addressed in just a few sessions. Other concerns that are broader or affect multiple domains of an individual's life can take several months or even years.
