Here is some information that answers commonly asked questions.

Office Hours
I'm afraid I'm not currently accepting new clients.

Fees
My standard fees are:
$125 for a 50-minute session (usually for individuals)
$175 for a 75-minute session (usually for couples)

I have a few sliding-scale slots in my practice. You're welcome to ask for the fee you're able to pay, and if a slot is open in that range, you'll be in-like-Flynn!

Payments
I accept cash, checks and credit cards through Paypal (a fee of $5 per session applies for Paypal payments). Payment is due at or before the session unless otherwise arranged.

Insurance
I'm a provider on Blue Cross Premera and its associated plans. If you have another insurance plan, I can provide you with a "superbill" that you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement. The superbill contains all the information and industry codes your insurance company requires for processing.

Attendance
It's the nature of therapy that participation yields results, so I have a minimum attendance requirement of twice per month.

Length of Therapy
Unlike some therapists, I am willing to work on a short-term basis. Many of the postmodern approaches I use can be effective very quickly. There are never any guarantees in this field, but depending on your issue, it's possible you may experience a shift within a few sessions and be done. I'm OK with that.

Couples
Couples work is very different from individual work. With a couple, your dynamic is my client. This means I'm not too concerned with who's right and who's wrong — in fact, there's no place for objective reality in intimate relationships. I'm concerned with keeping what works and shifting what doesn't, and I will step on toes sometimes to get there. It's good to know this up front.

Also, I have a no-secrets policy, which means I won't keep information from one person a secret from the other for long. I'm willing to work with you individually to prepare to share your secret, but only if your partner consents to the individual work.

Feel free to with any other questions you may have.
