FAQ

  • Do you take insurance?

    I am an out-of-network provider and do not work directly with insurance. Most major insurance companies may cover some costs for out-of-network services. I can provide a Superbill, which has the necessary information for your claim. You will need to pay the full amount at the time of your appointment.

    It is helpful to ask your insurance about your out-of-network coverage before you begin sessions. Some questions you may want to ask them are:

    • What are my out-of-network benefits for seeing a licensed psychologist for outpatient care?

      Important codes to ask about are initial diagnostic evaluation (CPT 90791) and individual 45-50 minute therapy sessions (CPT 90834)

    • What percentage of the cost is covered?
    • Do I have a deductible for mental health services, and if so, how much?
    • Is there a limit on the number of sessions I can have per year?
    • How can I submit a claim?
  • What can I expect from therapy?

    After completing a complimentary 20-minute phone consultation to assess whether our services are a good fit for you, you will be invited to schedule your first session. During this initial engagement, we will conduct an intake evaluation. This session is designed to gather important information that will help inform your treatment plan and to discuss your goals and expectations for therapy. Moving forward, treatment will be tailored to your specific needs. Typically, the most common and effective frequency for ongoing therapy is weekly sessions lasting 45 to 50 minutes.

  • How much do sessions cost?

    Session rates:

    $200 for a 45-minute session
    $220 for a 60-minute session
    $250 for couples therapy

    Other Services:

    $100.00 for a 45-minute consultation/supervision (DC/MD/VA) for Clinicians 

    $100.00 IFS Consultation (Hours valid toward certification) 
    $80.00 for group session (per session)

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

The Internal Family Systems (IFS) model is based on the concept that each of us has a core, undamaged Self that represents our true essence. 
 
This Self has the ability not only to observe our inner world but also to serve as a compassionate energy, fostering healing and harmony within our internal system. 
 
The Self embodies many of our most valuable qualities, such as compassion, curiosity, creativity, calmness, courage, clarity, confidence, and connectedness—the 8 C's. It can also provide healing to exiled or burdened parts of ourselves. 
 
With IFS, individuals can connect with their core Self and become familiar with their internal system.

More about Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy 

The Internal Family Systems (IFS) model is an evidence-based approach that aims to achieve balance and harmony among internal parts that carry extreme beliefs, reactions, or emotions resulting from trauma and attachment injuries.

IFS psychotherapy is based on three main assumptions:  

  • 1

    Everyone has parts, also referred to as sub-personalities, who engage with one another in an internal community functioning as many families or larger groups. In IFS, having multiple sub-personalities expressing their own beliefs in their own way is normal (Sykes & Sweezy, 2023).

  • 2

    Parts can be polarized or even form allegiance in the system. Some parts are more reactive than others, creating a power struggle in the system and causing extreme reactions, intensifying emotional pain. In IFS, all parts are good and welcome, even those considered destructive and harmful (Schwartz & Sweezy, 2020).

  • 3

    All parts, even those driving harmful behaviors, hold positive intentions for the system. Healing through Unburdening occurs when parts release burdens—extreme roles taken on due to trauma. The Self is the essence and center of every person; an internal natural leader of the system.
