Frequently Asked Questions

  • Online therapy can be just as effective as in-person therapy. I make sessions as similar to in-person sessions as possible and strongly encourage clients to secure a private, confidential location free from distractions. I utilize Zoom, a HIPAA-compliant platform, to conduct sessions. Before our first session, I will provide the unique login information to access my personal meeting room.

  • A typical therapy session lasts between 45-55 minutes.

  • New client intake: $145

    Ongoing therapy: $110

    *Focus Well Therapy, PLLC strives to provide financial options that meet individual needs. As a result, I accept self-pay, insurance, or sliding fee scale payment options. I offer a limited availability of reduced fees or sliding fee scale rates to help meet your financial needs.

    **All sliding scale spots are currently full at this time.

  • I am currently in network with United Health Care, Aetna, Cigna, Oscar Health, and Oxford. I recommend checking with your health insurance company to determine coverage rates before service.

  • The initial appointment will be an assessment to learn more about your history and concerns. We will also review practice policies, privacy, confidentiality, and therapy’s potential risks and benefits. You will have an opportunity to ask questions and learn how therapy works. If time allows, we will set tentative goals for treatment.

  • The length of therapy varies from person to person, depending on what brings you to therapy, your treatment goals, and your capacity to engage in therapy work outside of the sessions.

  • Under the No Surprises Act, if you do not have insurance or are not using insurance for medical coverage, you have a right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical care will likely cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. If you fall into either of these categories, please read the following:

    You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services.

    You should receive a Good Faith Estimate prior to the time of your service (at least 1 business day). You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.

    If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

    Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
