Frequently Asked Questions

  • I am currently in the process of credentialing with a small number of commercial insurance plans. Once I am in-network with a specific plan, I will notify you. However, at this time, I am an out-of-network provider. If your insurance plan includes out-of-network benefits, I can provide monthly invoices (superbills) for you to submit for possible reimbursement. Please check with your insurance provider to verify your coverage and benefits.

  • No Surprises Act Disclaimer:

    In compliance with the No Surprises Act, you will be provided with a good faith estimate of the cost for services prior to your appointment. Please be aware that all rates are transparent and discussed upfront to avoid any unexpected charges. You can also visit the Investment and Rates page for my current rates and fees. If you have any questions about your costs or billing, please don't hesitate to reach out for clarification.

  • I am licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon, Nebraska, and Kentucky. Additionally, I am licensed as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Washington.

  • I primarily provide most of my services through a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform. However, if you prefer in-person sessions, I can offer them occasionally at my office in the Beaverton, Oregon area, depending on the demand for in-person services. At this time, I only see Oregon residents for in-person therapy, while all clients based in Washington, Kentucky, and Nebraska are seen via tele-health.

  • Mental health therapy is a collaborative process where a trained therapist helps individuals address emotional, psychological, and behavioral challenges. Through various therapeutic techniques, therapy aims to improve mental well-being, provide coping strategies, and foster personal growth.

  • The frequency of therapy depends on your individual needs and goals. Typically, sessions are scheduled once a week, especially in the beginning, to build trust and work through issues. As progress is made, the frequency may decrease to biweekly or monthly. Ultimately, it’s about what feels most helpful for you and aligns with your therapeutic goals.
