Frequently Asked Questions About Trauma Therapy

We currently accept Aetna insurance plans. However, if we do not accept your insurance, I would still be able to provide therapy services to you. To help keep therapy affordable, I provide superbills for you to get reimbursed from your insurance company with your out of network benefits.

Currently our rates range from $150 to $200 for 50 minute sessions, depending on each therapist’s level of expertise. If you are interested in a longer session, we can discuss options during your consultation. Click here for more about therapy services

EMDR can be helpful if you have experienced trauma. You are welcome to email me a question or set up an initial free appointment to discuss details. EMDR would not be a good fit for you if you have a history of seizures, miscarriages, or if you are currently pregnant. For more information, check out my page on EMDR

While some people prefer to use insurance because of a low co-pay, there can be many issues when considering to use insurance. Here are some problem people run into when using insurance:

• Receiving a diagnosis that stays on your medical record

• Insurance stating therapy is not “medically necessary” for you, so your insurance company refuses to cover your therapy expenses. This can happen in the middle of treatment

• Insurance making the decision of what length of time you need for sessions. For example, typical therapy sessions are 45-60 mins. Some people may want a 90 minute session or be seen twice a week. Some insurance companies will not pay for those type of requests.

If you do not want to use your insurance, I am happy to accommodate your needs. Please give me a call or send me an email with any of your questions.
