FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing for all services provided through Life Essentials is based on a sliding fee scale. In our first meeting, the client and I will come to an agreeable fee for the services being provided. Fees range from $10-$125/session based upon income, ability to pay, and individual client circumstances. To provide the best care possible and remove stigma from counseling-related services, insurance is not accepted.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When a new client contacts Life Essentials, a short assessment will take place to establish the client's reason for services, goals, and service recommendations. For services based on a sliding fee scale, the assessment will involve questions related to income and ability to pay to determine the session fee for that individual.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Clinical Psychology and Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have several years of experience working with clients aged 5 to 70 years old presenting with a variety of issues. My particular areas of expertise are depression, anxiety, eating disorders, sexuality, and trauma.
