Yes, I currently take insurance for individual counseling. I an in-network with Optum, Oscar, Oxford, Cigna and Aetna, BCBS, Careleon and a handful of other insurances. Please reach out to determine if I accept your insurance in your state! I am not in-network with Optum plans in North Carolina, but am in-process and will be in a few months. I provide sliding-scale rates to Optum members while I am in the credentialing process.

I do not accept insurance for couples counseling, but do provide sliding-scale rates.

Sessions are typically around 55 minutes for individuals and 85 minutes for couples.

I use HIPAA compliant versions of Doxy.me, Google Hangouts, and TherapyNotes to meet with clients virtually.

My private pay session rate is $185-$200. I do offer easily accessible, sliding scale fees starting at $100. Ask for more information!

I currently see clients Monday - Friday and have late morning and afternoon availability. I occasionally have limited evening availability, but it does book up fast.

The office I provide in-person services is located in downtown Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The address is: 102 W 3rd St STE 1000, Winston-Salem, NC 27101

The majority of third party payers (insurance companies) require a diagnosis from the DSM-5 to qualify for reimbursement. Relationship distress is not a reimbursable diagnosis, so insurance companies typically will not cover couples counseling and deny claims.

Instead, I offer sliding-scale rates to help increase the accessibility of couples counseling. There are situations where I also provide pro bono counseling, so please inquire if you are interested!

I also practice from an evidence-based model of couples counseling called Emotion-focused Couples Therapy, which lasts from 10-20 sessions. If there is significant trauma or infidelity, counseling lasts around 35 sessions. Working form this model helps reduce the amount of time and money you spend in therapy and provides the best opportunity for positive outcomes.
