Question 1

What is reproductive mental health?

Accepted Answer

Reproductive mental health focuses on the emotional and psychological well-being throughout the entire reproductive cycle —whether you're trying to conceive, pregnant, postpartum, or navigating experiences like infertility, miscarriage, or pregnancy loss. Reproductive mental health care helps you feel supported and understood, no matter where you are in your journey.

Question 2

Can I still work with you if I'm dealing with issues outside of reproductive mental health?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. While my specialty is in reproductive mental health, I work with clients who are navigating a wide range of emotional challenges, including anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and other challenges. Together, we can explore and address what matters to you most in a safe and supportive space.

Question 3

Where are you licensed?

Accepted Answer

I'm licensed in Florida and New Jersey, which means that if you are currently living in either of those states, I can be your therapist!

Question 4

Do you offer a free consultation?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I offer a free 15-minute consultation to help us get to know each other and see if we're a good fit. This is an opportunity for you to share a little about what's bringing you to therapy and to ask any questions you might have about my approach or the process.
Starting therapy is a big step, and I want you to feel as comfortable and supported as possible. If you'd like to schedule a consultation, feel free to reach out. I'd be happy to connect with you.

Question 5

What can I expect during therapy?

Accepted Answer

Therapy is your space to explore, process, and grow at your own pace. Each session is 50 minutes long and tailored to your unique needs and intentions. My goal is to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where you feel safe to share openly and feel supported as we navigate your journey together.

Question 6

Do you offer virtual therapy?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I exclusively offer virtual therapy sessions. This allows you to receive support from the comfort of your home or wherever you feel most at ease.

Question 7

How will virtual sessions take place?

Accepted Answer

Our telehealth sessions will be held on Google Meet, a secure and HIPAA-compliant platform. This means your privacy and personal health information (PHI) are fully protected during our sessions.
I'll send you a private link, which you can easily access from your computer, tablet, or smartphone. Your comfort and privacy are my top priorities.

Question 8

How can I communicate with you between sessions?

Accepted Answer

I provide a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform through my electronic health record (EHR) system for all communication related to therapy. This ensures that your private health information (PHI) is protected at all times. You will receive a login to access the platform, where you can securely message me.
Additionally, you're welcome to text me for quick updates (e.g., if you're running late or need to reschedule). However, because texting is not HIPAA-compliant, you'll need to sign a consent form before we can communicate this way. Please avoid sharing any personal health information (PHI) in texts.
You can also email me. I check my email regularly and will respond as soon as I can.

Question 9

Do you accept insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I am currently in network with the following insurance providers-
Florida: Aetna and Quest Behavioral Health
New Jersey: Aetna, Horizon BCBS, and Quest Behavioral Health.

Question 10

What if you aren't in-network with my insurance?

Accepted Answer

If your insurance provider offers out-of-network mental health benefits, I can provide you with a superbill after each session that will allow your insurance provider to partially reimburse you for the cost of the session.

To find out whether you have out-of-network mental health benefits and those benefits cover, contact your insurance provider.

Question 11

What if my insurance isn’t accepted or doesn’t cover out-of-network services?

Accepted Answer

If I am out-of-network with your insurance and you have confirmed that your insurance does not offer out-of-network mental health benefits, we can still work together.

My standard out-of-pocket fee is $200 per session. If this fee presents a barrier but you’re interested in working together, please don’t hesitate to reach out—I'd be happy to discuss options to make it more accessible.
