Scheduling
About Scheduling
Each therapist schedules appointment times individually on different days of the week. All therapists keep some evening and/or weekend hours for your convenience. While we will do our best to accommodate your scheduling needs, we do ask for you understanding that it may take a few weeks to find an available time that works for you. To schedule an appointment, please contact your therapist directly. If you are new, please use the general contact information.
About The Therapy Process
Psychotherapy services typically begin with an initial evaluation to discuss your history and presenting concerns, as well as to discuss treatment goals. After this first session, we will ideally try to schedule you for a 45-minute session on a weekly basis, although this frequency can be adjusted as needed..
About Appointments
Typically, appointments will last from 45-50 minutes. However, family sessions and marital sessions, as well as group sessions require longer sessions. When extra time is needed, these sessions are billed as extended sessions to the insurance companies and charged a slightly higher fee. Psychological testing is billed at the hourly rate based on the number of hours required to complete the testing and the report.
Cancellation Policy
When you have scheduled appointments, we do ask for 24 hours notice if you need to cancel. For testing, which is usually done in 2 hour blocks, we ask for 48 hours. Otherwise, the session is billed at the full fee, and insurance companies will not pay for these charges. This policy allows us to offer that time slot to other clients who are waiting for an opening. If you need to cancel late due to circumstances beyond your control, such as weather, illness, etc., we certainly do understand and will not charge you, provided you let us know.
