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:

My fee is based on what insurance you may have. I participate with all Blue Cross Blue Shield plans, UPMC, Aetna, Magellan, Value Options, and Medical Assistance.  My fee is $150.00 without insurance.

I also accept VISA, MASTERCARD and DISCOVER.

Thanks, Joan
