What can I expect in my first therapy session?
Please arrive 15-20 minutes early and complete the paperwork that you will find on a clipboard in the waiting room. Our first session will be focused on insuring that I understand your needs and goals and on establishing a course of action that feels comfortable for you.
back to topDo you take insurance?
No. I try to provide accessible rates for my clients. This allows my clients to truly have confidentiality. (In other words, I do not have to give you a diagnosis and report it to your insurance company.) My standard fee is $85 for a 50 minute session. You will find that this is a competitive rate in the OKC area. I am also willing to offer a rate reduction based upon your income. Please inquire during our initial phone conversation if this is a concern.
back to topWhat forms of payment do you take?
Cash or check at the time of services.
back to topHow do I schedule my first session?
Please contact me by phone or email. We will establish a time for a 20 minute phone consultation. There is no charge for the phone consultation, it simply provides a time for us to establish whether or not it appears that I will be a good fit for you as a therapist. I am always happy to provide referrals if it appears that you would be better served by another professional. If at the end of our phone conversation both you and I feel that I can be helpful to you we will schedule an appointment at that time.
back to topWhat is the frequency and duration of treatment?
Typically, I see clients on a weekly basis. Duration of treatment depends upon your needs and goals.
back to topDo I have to be in crisis to come to therapy?
Absolutely not! Some clients do originally come in during a time of crisis, while others are simply desirous of the growth experience that therapy can provide.
