Frequently Asked Questions

I offer a range of telehealth services, including individual, partner/couples, and family therapy—whatever feels right for you! Just a heads-up: everything is done through video, and you’ll need to be in Virginia during your session. 

Services are only provided to Virginia residents.

I work with people from all backgrounds, including those in the BIPOC (Black , Indigenous, People of Color) community. While I'm especially passionate about supporting BIPOC clients, I welcome anyone who’s looking for a safe, compassionate space to grow and heal.

In your first session, I’ll ask some questions to get to know you and understand what’s bringing you to counseling. You’ll also have plenty of time to ask any questions you have about how the process works. And if it turns out we’re not the right fit, no worries! I’m happy to provide referrals or recommend other clinicians who might be a better match for you.

I am currently in-network with Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Cigna, Aetna, Carelon Behavioral Health, Quest Behavioral Health, and Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. 

Continue to check my Headway profile for real-time updates on what in-network insurance panels I am  credentialed with. Future panels include: CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, Oscar (Optum), United Healthcare, Oxford (Optum), and Independence Blue Cross Pennsylvania - Virtual National Network . 

NOTE: I use Headway to manage my billing and admin work. Headway manages everything related to payments and insurance to make things as easy as possible for you. 

For individual counseling the rate is $155 per session hour.

For partner/couples and family counseling the rate is $175 per session hour.

NOTE: I use Headway to manage my billing-everything related to payments and insurance to make things as easy as possible for you. Through Headway, you will be provided a superbill if I am not in-network with your insurance or you are paying the self-pay rate to submit to your insurance for reimbursement. 

Canceling or Rescheduling:

$100 per session cancelled within 24 hours 

NOTE:  Your insurance company will not reimburse for missed appointments. It will be your responsibility to pay for the fee. 

Running Late:

If you're running behind, not a problem—just let me know! However, please keep in mind that your session will still end at the scheduled time, and your copay or self-pay session fee will still apply.

Emergency Situations:

I understand that things come up unexpectedly. If there’s an emergency or something out of your control, just reach out to let me know what’s going on-we’ll figure it out together.

Regular attendance is key to making progress in therapy. If you’re missing sessions often, we might chat about how we can best support you moving forward. I'm committed to helping you make progress and appreciate your time and effort in showing up. Thanks for understanding!

I offer a free 15-minute discovery call to help you see if I'm the right fit for you! To schedule a discovery call, you can call or text 434-207-2193 or schedule through my Headway profile. 

NOTE: If you are seeking partner/couples and/or family counseling, a discovery call is REQUIRED prior to scheduling.

Headway is a trusted platform that helps manage the insurance side of therapy. Through Headway, I'm able to accept a variety of insurance plans and make the billing process easier for both of us. When you use your insurance for therapy with me, Headways: 

• Verifies your insurance benefits
• Handles all claims and billing 
• Lets you easily view your appointments costs 

All you have to do is: 

1. Use my unique Headway link
2. Create a secure profile and enter your insurance info 
3. Schedule your session 

That's it! Headway takes care of the rest so we can focus on your care, not paperwork!

• Make sure you have a charged device with stable internet, a camera, and a microphone (computer, tablet, or phone works).
• Find a quiet, private spot where you won’t be interrupted and can talk freely.
• Headphones are optional, but they can help with sound quality and privacy.
• Good lighting is key—make sure your face is well-lit so we can communicate clearly.
• And don’t forget to come ready with any notes, questions, or topics you’d like to go over during the session!

Friend Requests, Follows, Connections, and Page Likes

I don’t accept friend requests, follow requests, or connection requests from clients. On some platforms I can't really control likes or follows on business social media pages. If you want like or follow me on these accounts, that's totally fine! Just know that by doing so, your privacy isn’t 100% guaranteed. Because of that, I don’t encourage clients to follow me, and I won’t follow you back.

Comments and Interaction

If you’re a current or former client and you comment on anything I post, just know I’m not going to engage in those comments. I do interact with non-clients now and then, but I keep it casual—not for offering therapy advice or support.

Also, if you're not a client and you're thinking of asking for advice or help in the comments, I won’t be able to provide that there. If you need professional support, please reach out to a therapist you’ve already connected with or with me through the proper channels (call/text/email).
