You May Have More Options Than You Thought

You May Have More Options Than You Thought

You may have been reading through my website and you like the kind of therapy I offer.

Then you noticed that my practice is based in Connecticut.

You may not have to start your search over.

If your state is shaded dark blue on the PSYPACT map, we may be able to work together online.

That means you may have more freedom to choose a psychologist based on experience and approach, rather than who happens to practice nearby.

What Can Individual Therapy Help With?

If your state is shaded dark blue on the PSYPACT map, we may be able to work together online for couples therapy, premarital counseling, or individual therapy.

Couples Therapy

If your relationship has gotten stuck in recurring conflict, defensiveness, distance, resentment, trust concerns, or communication problems, couples therapy may be a place to start.

Premarital Counseling

If you’re engaged, seriously dating, considering marriage, or wanting to be more intentional about your relationship, premarital counseling can give you a place to talk about what matters before marriage or a deeper commitment.

Individual Therapy

I also work with adults dealing with anxiety and overthinking, depression, grief, relationship concerns, communication challenges, stress, and life changes.

What If My Partner and I Are in Different States?

You may still be able to attend couples therapy together online.

What matters is where each of you is physically located during the session.

If you’ll be joining from different states, let me know where each of you will be. I can confirm whether I’m authorized to provide therapy in both locations before we begin.

What Can Individual Therapy Help With?

What If I Travel or Move?

If you’re going to be somewhere different for a session, just let me know.

If you’re traveling in another participating PSYPACT state, we are still be able to meet.

The same is true if you move. We can look at your new location and determine whether we can continue working together.

If you’ll be outside the United States, PSYPACT doesn’t authorize me to provide therapy while you’re there.

What Does Therapy Cost?

Why the Same Conflict Keeps Coming Back

My fee is $175 for a 45-minute session, and payment is due the day of your session.

I’m an out-of-network psychologist, so I don’t bill or interact with insurance companies.

If your insurance plan includes out-of-network mental health benefits, you may be eligible for reimbursement.

Want Help With Your Out-of-Network Benefits?

I offer Mentaya as an optional service because some clients like having help with the insurance part.

You can use the Mentaya benefits calculator to see whether your plan may include out-of-network benefits and get an estimate of what your insurance may reimburse.

If you choose to use Mentaya, they can submit eligible claims and help with insurance follow-up.

You don’t have to use Mentaya to work with me.

I don’t receive a kickback for offering it, and I don’t interact with your insurance company. I offer it because some clients find that it makes using their out-of-network benefits easier.
