FAQs

  • Please contact us if you would like to communicate via email to ask about our services or schedule here for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit and can work together.

    Once you schedule a phone intake, we will call you with the phone number you provided.

    After the phone intake and a new patient appointment is scheduled, you will be sent an email confirmation including appointment details and a link to register for the patient portal, where you can complete new patient paperwork.

    For in-person appointments, you will be given extra instruction on how to enter the building. Please complete new patient paperwork prior to your appointment otherwise it may cut into your scheduled appointment time.

    For virtual appointments, you will be sent a link to access the meeting the morning of the appointment after the paperwork is complete.

  • At this time we accept:
    +Sentara Health Plans (commercial and medicaid).
    +TRICARE (certified Out-Of-Network)

    We are in the process of credentialing with a select few insurances and we will update this section once we are approved.

    You also have the option to self-pay for services or use your out-of-network (OON) insurance benefits.

  • $230 for the initial consultation
    $200 for an individual 55 min+ session
    $175 for an individual 45 min session

    Please see our practice policy section for information on self-pay rates and informed consent to treatment.

  • The good news is that your insurance may have out-of-network (OON) mental health coverage.

    1. You self-pay for services up front

    2. We give you a superbill (basically a fancy receipt) for services

    3. You submit the superbill to insurance

    4. Insurance reimburses you directly anywhere between 40-80% of what you paid! That means if you paid $200 for therapy, your insurance may reimburse you between $80-$160. That’s a huge discount!

    Check your OON benefits here!

  • Yes! We are located at 900 Granby St, Ste 206 in downtown Norfolk (CEO building).
