Question 1

What is a superbill?

Accepted Answer

A superbill is a detailed receipt for your sessions that you can submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement. I don't bill insurance directly, but I'll provide superbills so you can seek reimbursement on your own. It's worth calling your insurer to ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits.

Question 2

How long does therapy last?

Accepted Answer

It depends entirely on you: your goals, your history, and the pace that feels right. Some people come for a specific season; others stay for longer, deeper work. Therapy is hard work and it takes courage; sometimes it feels worse before it feels better. We'll regularly check in on your progress, and your growth is always the goal.

Question 3

What is a sliding scale, and do I qualify?

Accepted Answer

A sliding scale is a reduced fee offered based on financial need, so cost is less of a barrier to care. I keep a limited number of sliding-scale spots available. If the standard $170 fee is a stretch, please ask during your consultation. There's no shame in it, and I'd rather find a way to work together.

Question 4

Do you take insurance?

Accepted Answer

I'm not in-network with insurance panels, which means I'm considered out-of-network. I provide superbills you can submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement. Being out-of-network also means more privacy and flexibility. Your care isn't dictated by what an insurance company will or won't approve.

Question 5

Do you see clients in person or online?

Accepted Answer

Both. I see clients in person at my office in Uptown Dallas, and offer telehealth to clients anywhere in Texas. Many people do a mix of the two depending on their week. We'll find the rhythm that works for your life.

Question 6

What does a first session look like?

Accepted Answer

Our first session is about getting to know you, and giving you the chance to ask me anything. Therapists aren't one-size-fits-all, so I encourage you to make sure I feel like the right fit. What matters most is that you feel heard and supported. If it turns out someone else would serve you better, I'm glad to offer a referral.

Question 7

What's your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

I ask for at least 48 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule a session. This lets me offer the time to someone else who may need it. Life happens, and we can always talk through specifics together.

Question 8

How do I get started?

Accepted Answer

The easiest first step is a free 15–30 minute phone consultation. Reach out by email and we'll set up a time to talk about what's bringing you in and whether we're a good fit. Scheduling is managed through TherapyNotes once we begin.
