For Counseling, do you work with issues other than anxiety and depression?
Absolutely! While life can be full of anxiety and depression, and a number of issues stem from this, that's not always the case. Therefore I also provide support in the following areas:
-grief
-trauma
-parenting
-pre/postnatal
-coping skills
-relationships
-career issues
-chronic pain
Among Others
What is the rate of service?
My current rate for services:
Individual Counseling or Coaching session- $180 per 60-minutes
Payment is expected at time of service. I accept or credit cards and HSA cards and I keep a card number on file to run post session. I understand adding counseling or coaching to your list of expenses may seem like a lot. But, the expense of not getting help can be even more costly. Unresolved issues can negatively impact all areas of your life. Receiving professional support is priceless.
Do you take insurance?
I do not work with any insurance. However, depending on your insurance policy, you may be able to submit/receive a reimbursement for out-of-network services, per your policy for counseling services. You may contact your insurance company for specific details of your coverage. I can provide you with a superbill that you may submit to your insurance.
Although there are times it is financially necessary to utilize insurance benefits for counseling, here are a few important considerations:
-The insurance company decides how many sessions you may have for treatment, not you.
-All insurance claims require a diagnostic code, even if one does not exist. A diagnostic code can limit or affect future insurance coverage among other things.
-Even under new privacy policies private information is shared with insurance companies.
What populations do you work with?
I work with individuals- teens, young adults, and adults.
What is your cancellation policy?
Since I have reserved your appointment time exclusively for you, I kindly ask that you please give me at least 24 hours notice if you need to reschedule or cancel your session to avoid being charged your full session rate for the appointment.
How does confidentiality work?
All of our conversations are completely confidential (except where mandated otherwise by the law).
What will our first appointment look like?
Our first appointment is an opportunity for the two of us to connect and for me to learn about you, why you are seeking support, what you are hoping to achieve, etc. as well as a time for me to answer any questions you might have. This will also be a time to determine if we will have a good working dynamic. If needed, I will be happy to provide a referral.
What will future sessions look like?
After the first appointment we will have a clearer picture of the course of counseling or coaching and our time together will be more focused and structured. Depending on your goals there may be growth exercises outside of our time together.
How often will we meet?
There is not a one size fits all answer since each of us is unique and our goals and paths are individual. However, we will find what’s best for you. That may mean we meet every week, every other week, or once a month. We may meet for a short period of time or for a longer period of time depending on your needs.
What is unique about Kintsugi Integrative?
Kintsugi Integrative Wellness strives to incorporate the whole person into counseling and healing through an integrative and holistic approach. While we will work on your presenting issues, needs, and goals, we will do so by also paying attention to the other areas of your life which may be impacted. I do not believe in a one-approach-fits-all-people/issue mentality.
