Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Whether you decide to work with me or another provider, be sure to get your questions answered before beginning a therapy relationship! As much as possible, you should like and trust your therapist so that you can feel comfortable saying and hearing the hard things. The quality of the therapy relationship (i.e., therapeutic rapport) has consistently been shown to be one of the strongest predictors of successful treatment outcomes.
Following are a few questions I get from prospective clients and community stakeholders:
Q: Do you accept insurance, or will you provide a Superbill.
A: No, I do not accept insurance as a form of payment, and I do not provide a Superbill. I am a private-pay clinician. Learn more behind my why here.
Q: Do you work with children, families, and/or couples?
A: No, I am only accepting adult, individual client inquiries at this time.
Q: Why are new clients only able to start with weekly sessions?
A: SO MUCH can happen in just a week! Now, multiply those happenings by the number of weeks you might wait to sort through them during your next therapy session. There are only so many points we can process in any one session.
Once we've been able to conceptualize what we believe is contributing to your struggles, we can implement and monitor your progress. Once you begin to generalize your learnings and insights and maintain therapy gains, a biweekly to monthly maintenance schedule can be appropriate.
Q: Do you offer a sliding fee scale?
A: Yes, I partner with Open Path Psychotherapy Collective to offer sliding fee scale lots when I have the capacity to do so. I do not currently have any Open Path slots available, but you may be able to locate another therapist who does here.
Q: Do you speak at events and/or provide community education?
A: I do! Please email info@thechrysalisctr.com with the details of your request.
