Services Details

Location: I am currently seeing people by telehealth, at my near westside home office, or home visits. Contact me to discuss the options for you or for more information about safety precautions around contagious illness. Home visits are limited by travel scheduling constraints and current health status.

Appointments: In addition to daytime appointments, I offer some weekend times.

Before we schedule a visit, I want to make sure my services are a good fit for you. Please call me or email me to inquire.

Fees: I charge $75 for the first intake sessions and $50 per session for established clients. I do not bill insurance. If the cost of therapy is a barrier for you, let me know and we can talk and see if we can find a sliding scale fee that will let me pay my bills but still feel manageable to you.

Health insurance: I do not directly bill any health insurance providers. Under the federal No Surprises Act my clients are entitled to a “Good Faith Estimate” of the cost of receiving services from me. To meet this requirement I will give you a form that includes the legally required information. The summary of that information is that I charge per session, as described in my fees above, and that my clients can choose the frequency and total number of appointments that they choose to attend. I do not offer or require additional assessments, tests, supplies, or referrals that would create surprise expenses. Transparency and affordability of healthcare costs is an important part of what I value as a healthcare provider and is part of the reason that I do not bill insurance.

My credential: I completed my Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy (MS-MFT) from Edgewood College in December 2018. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Wisconsin, license #1340-124.

Privacy: As your therapist, I keep records of our visits and necessary information about you. I store these records using an industry-standard electronic health record system. The system meets HIPAA legal standards for security and privacy. I will explain my record keeping during our visit. You can also read a copy of the privacy practices here.
