Frequently Asked Questions

The first step is to fill out the contact form on the website. This form allows me to briefly learn the type of services you are seeking, scheduling needs, and how to best contact you. From there, I will contact you afterwards to set up a quick 15-minute free phone call before scheduling a session to see if we will be a good fit to work together.

Sessions will take place virtually through a HIPAA compliant platform called SimplePractice. The links to these virtual sessions are usually sent to your email about 5-10 minutes before the start of our schedule session time.

For individual services, a 50 minute session fee is $150.

Phone consultations will be free, with a duration of 15 minutes.

At this moment, I currently am in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield and Aetna. I am also in the process of being credentialed with Harvard Pilgrim Health Care. Please note if you do not have the insurances listed above, you may still use your out-of-network benefits. It will be important for you to check with your insurance company to determine if you are eligible for reimbursement. I am more than happy to provide a super-bill upon request.

During our sessions, you can expect a safe, nonjudgemental space where you will be heard and understood. While there will be work involved to help you achieve your goals, I am interested in hearing your story and understanding how I can be of the most help to you at this time. My goal is to offer support, encouragement and skill-building. Although my role in not to provide direct advice or answers, I believe a collaborative approach is the best way to foster strength and resilience throughout your journey.

You can expect that your information is protected with a HIPAA compliant secure online platform for all notes and virtual sessions. It will be my legal and ethical duty to make sure your information is protected as I believe that will also be the best way to foster trust and rapport. However, in the case of abuse to a child or elderly person, risk of harm to self, or risk of harm to others, confidentiality will need to be broken to keep you and everyone else around you safe.

Faith integration is always client-led. When desired, I incorporate Scripture, Christian principles, and prayer alongside evidence-based therapy to support your emotional and spiritual well-being.

You do not need to be a Christian to attend Selah Christian Mental Health Counseling. I am comfortable providing therapy to Christians, non-Christians, and people of other faiths. Although my faith shapes my worldview and practice, my goal is to do my best to honor the worldview you bring while helping you achieve mental health wellness.
