Preparing for a Session:

Make a list of ideas you want to talk about.
Don't be afraid to ask me questions.
If feelings come up, stay with them and express them.
You are interviewing me when I am interviewing you.
When the session is over, you should feel you were heard.

Fees:

I participate with all Blue Cross Blue Shield plans including Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield and UPMC health plan. If you do not have these insurance plans my fee is $150.00 for the initial assessment and $95.00 for counseling and energy psychology treatments. You MAY be reimbursed by your insurance company for out of network counseling. It is your responsibility to contact your insurance company to see if they reimburse for out of network counseling.  I accept Mastercard, Visa and Discover.
