FAQs
Are you doing testing during COVID? If so, do you meet virtually or in person?
Yes, I am doing virtual testing during COVID and use procedures such as screen sharing, mailing testing materials to relevant parties, and virtual face-to-face meetings with clients, referring parties and family members when appropriate. Depending on your questions and the current circumstances of COVID rates, I may also do a limited number of in-person testing sessions for assessments that are best gathered in person. This is determined case-by-case and with current infections rates in mind.
What types of assessment do you do?
I do collaborative/therapeutic assessments, which I explain in more detail on this page. People come to see me hoping for answers to a broad range of questions, including what diagnosis makes sense for them (e.g., ADHD, Depression, etc.), to questions about personality or relationship difficulties, to questions about what is making them feel stuck in their forward progress in life, in therapy, or in their career or schooling.
What type of clients do you see?
I see people aged 6+, including couples and families.
Do you take insurance?
I do not take insurance. I do provide clients with a superbill as an out-of-network provider. The superbill includes all the CPT codes you will need and a detailed list of hours spent for each type of testing process. You would then submit the superbill to your insurance company and get any reimbursement allowed from the insurance company directly.
Why don’t you take insurance?
After having worked for several years doing testing and taking insurance, I found that working with insurance made my client care less optimal, sometimes significantly less optimal. The time I spent advocating for my clients with their insurance companies often resulted in spending less time on their actual testing process. Furthermore, I was only able to answer questions that the insurance company deemed “medically necessary,” which meant that some client questions were not able to be addressed without incurring additional fees anyway. I decided to stop taking insurance to ensure that you and I are the ones who dictate which questions you get answered, and to ensure that all my time is spent working for you.
