When you call me, we will briefly discuss the issue that is bringing you to counseling. We will set up a time for your initial appointment. This session will last about 55 minutes during which we will identify your needs and the goals of therapy. Also, you will complete paperwork to keep on file. If I am unable to provide the type of service you need or request, I will refer you to an appropriate outside practitioner or agency. Do you take insurance? More and more highly qualified therapists, like myself, are choosing to stay off most insurance provider lists and to be available as out-of-network providers. We feel that by avoiding the restrictions and intrusions of insurance company representatives, we can provide quality, personal, relationship, and family counseling services based on your individual needs. *** CONSIDER THESE IMPORTANT ISSUES while deciding to use out- of-network counseling services:
training).
be very limiting in their coverage of relationship problems and emotional disorders. By using an out-of-network provider, you can start counseling before your situation becomes more severe.
Many times, all you will need to do is send in a receipt to your insurance company. You can call the behavioral health phone number on the back of your insurance card and find out how your company reimburses out-of-network expenses and get the address you need to send in your receipts. I can give you a receipt with all the information the company will need on it. How long will I be in counseling? You can affect change in your life in as little as 6 weeks, depending on what issues and problems you bring to counseling. However, counseling can last from 6 weeks to more than 2 years, depending on the complexity of your concerns and the level of dedication you have to making real changes in your life. I feel uneasy about discussing personal issues with a stranger!! Making that first call can be difficult. You may feel anxious, embarrassed, or discouraged. However, it may help you to know that by being a counselor and not a friend or family member it is actually easier for me to help you. Sometimes, friends or family members can be biased and subjective in their attempt to help. A good counselor is objective, non-judgmental and creates a warm and accepting environment in which you can relax, begin to trust, and address your issues in safety. What about confidentiality? I cannot disclose any of our discussions to anyone without your consent. Everything you say in counseling is confidential, unless I am required, by law, to break confidentiality to protect you or somebody else from harm. If you have questions about confidentiality or its limits we can discuss them during your first session. |
