Do you take insurance?
I accept cash pay only and do not accept insurance payments.
However, you can submit an out-of-network claim to your insurance and they will often either reimburse you or put your payments towards your deductible. If you would like to pursue this option, let me know and I can provide you with the necessary documents.
Please note that while most insurance providers cover mental health counseling, many do not cover neurofeedback or QEEG assessments.
The decision not to accept insurance was made in order to enhance the quality of care I provide, as I am able to maintain a lower case-load and provide care that is dictated by individual needs, rather than by insurance restrictions. This allows me to dedicate more of my time and energy to each client on my schedule.
How often will I need treatment? And for how long?
Counseling is typically done on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, depending on your needs. Counseling is a highly individualized process, and for this reason, it is difficult to predict exactly how long it will take for you to feel prepared to end treatment. I provide periodic assessments and treatment plan updates in order to ensure that your time and resources are being effectively dedicated to reaching your goals.
Neurofeedback is typically done once or twice a week for best results. Like counseling, I also reassess and revaluate the treatment plan periodically. Many clients start to notice changes within the first five sessions and report lasting change after 20 sessions. We will be consistently gauging progress to ensure effective treatment and care.
Do you offer telehealth services?
Yes! I am licensed in both Idaho and Washington and can offer telehealth counseling sessions to individuals residing in either state. Neurofeedback and QEEGs are not possible via telehealth. I prefer in-person sessions when working with children under 12 years old.
Do I need a QEEG in order to do neurofeedback?
While not absolutely necessary, it is highly recommended. Depending on your symptoms, I can draw from an existing bank of protocols that are widely used to treat specific conditions. However, I cannot identify the most beneficial individualized neurofeedback treatment plan without first doing a QEEG.
What is your cancelation policy?
I require 24-hour notice of cancellation. Appointments canceled after the 24-hour window, as well as missed appointments, are subject to a $80 fee. In the event of illness or emergency, this fee may be waived on a case-by-case basis.
