​
Are you accepting new clients?

Yes I am always accepting new clients because I only see most clients for just a few weeks, not months or years such as is common in talk therapy.  Because I have fairly frequent client turnover, I generally always have openings within two to three weeks.

​

​

​

When do you schedule appointments?

I have appointments available beginning at 4:30 am Eastern Time Monday through Friday and three nights per week until 8:30 pm Eastern Time.

​

​

​

Do you provide EMDR for children?

I generally don't see anyone under 18 years of age unless there is a special circumstance arranged with a parent or legal guardian.  I have never performed EMDR with anyone under 11 years of age.

​

​

​

Is this entirely confidential?

Yes entirely and a big part of why I do not participate with insurance which requires the documentation of a clinical diagnosis which many people I've worked with prefer not to have on their record and insurance often shares info with the national clinical database which I consider a serious threat to privacy.

​

​

​
Do you take insurance?

In private practice I do not accept insurance but I can provide what's called a "super bill" which is an invoice with the appropriate treatment codes listed on it which you can submite to your insurance provider. Most insurance providers will reimburse you at the "out of network" allowable rate.  

​

​

​

Can I still submit your bill to my insurance?

Yes you can and most insurance will reimburse you at their out of network allowance amount.  I can provide an invoice upon request after all services are complete.

​

​

​

Do you provide letters for courts or other purposes?

Yes, letters and forms completed as requested by courts, housing authorities, employment, claims, or other purposes which will summarize any therapeutic activities we have completed together or following a thorough biospsychosocial assessment.

​

​

 

How many sessions do I need?

Treatment can be very rapid, however, the number of sessions will vary, according to the complexity of the issues being dealt with. After an EMDR session, there may be a strong sense of relief, a feeling of openness and healing. EMDR therapy is cost effective, requiring fewer sessions than traditional therapy. Relief from emotional distress often comes within the first few sessions.

​

Do you accept credit cards?

Yes including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover & Medical Savings Account (MSA) Cards
