Right to Receive a Good Faith Estimate

Note: As of January 1, 2022, per the “No Surprises” Act, this information is required to be posted on our website.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.

You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 985-3059.

What can I expect during your free 15 minute consultation?

This is a casual conversation where we get to know each other a bit.

Some questions that I like to ask during this time include:

• What brings you to therapy?

• Have you gone to therapy before? How did that go?

• What goals would you like to reach by going to therapy?

You can ask me questions as well. You might be curious about about my approach, what a session will be like etc. The most important part of the consultation is that you feel I’m a good fit for you. If so, then we can schedule a time via Mindful Therapy Group.

Executive functioning therapy helps you develop practical strategies for planning, organizing, and taking action while understanding the factors that make these skills harder to access consistently. It is not about “fixing” ADHD or changing who you are. Instead, we work to understand how your environment, routines, habits, and nervous system affect your ability to follow through.

Therapy may help you:

• Plan: Clarify priorities, make decisions, and determine what needs to happen next.

• Organize: Create systems, routines, and environments that make tasks easier to manage.

• Take action: Reduce procrastination, avoidance, and overwhelm so you can actually get started and follow through.

• Build sustainable routines: Develop realistic approaches to sleep, nutrition, movement, and daily structure that support your ability to function.

• Understand underlying factors: Explore stress, emotional regulation, burnout, and other sources of dysregulation that can interfere with executive functioning.

• Challenge shame: Address beliefs such as “something is wrong with me,” “I should be able to do this,” or “I’m just lazy,” and develop a more accurate and compassionate understanding of your challenges.

The goal is not to make you perfectly organized or productive. It is to help you understand what gets in the way, build strategies that work for you, and create systems that make it easier to do what matters to you.

Yes. I work with people who are struggling with addictive or compulsive behaviors, while recognizing that some substance use and behavioral addictions require specialized addiction treatment. I do not diagnose or provide primary treatment for severe addictive disorders. When appropriate, I work alongside addiction counselors, medical providers, and other professionals to provide coordinated support.

My approach may include harm reduction, understanding the roots of addictive behaviors, and developing healthier ways to meet the needs those behaviors may be serving. We may explore shame, avoidance, disconnection, emotional dysregulation, and unmet needs that can contribute to addictive cycles.

I also draw from Robert Moore’s archetypal work, including the Lover archetype. In simple terms, the Lover represents our capacity for connection, pleasure, vitality, curiosity, and feeling fully engaged with life. Sometimes addictive behaviors become a narrow way of seeking these experiences, especially when a person feels disconnected, lonely, stressed, or unable to access them in healthier ways.

Rather than simply asking, “How do I stop doing this?” we can also ask, “What am I seeking through this behavior, and how can I build more of that into my life?”

The goal is not simply to tell you to stop a behavior. It is to understand what is driving the pattern, reduce harm, build greater self-awareness and choice, and develop healthier ways of regulating yourself, connecting with others, and experiencing vitality.

Yes. Therapy can help you understand your patterns around assertiveness, conflict, boundaries, and self-advocacy. This can be especially helpful if you tend to avoid conflict, become passive or overly accommodating, or find yourself becoming highly reactive or confrontational.

We can explore the difference between assertiveness, passivity, and aggression, and identify the patterns that tend to show up in your relationships. For example, avoiding conflict may protect you in the short term but can lead to resentment, while constantly putting others' needs ahead of your own can leave you feeling like a martyr.

The goal is to develop a healthier middle ground where you can express your needs, set boundaries, tolerate disagreement, and advocate for yourself without becoming aggressive, withdrawing, or losing yourself in the needs of others.
