I know the beginning steps of therapy can often be the hardest part. I do my best to make the beginning as stress fee as possible, while still beginning on a solid foundation.
It usually begins with a free consultation where we discuss why you are seeking therapy, and if we will be a good fit. If you choose to continue, we will schedule our intake session. Prior to this, you’ll have a few short documents to review and complete.
The first 1-2 sessions are semi-informal intakes, where we discuss presenting concerns, explore your history and background, and establish a solid relationship that becomes the backbone of our work together.
After that, we begin planning your treatment tailored to you, and begin the work! I usually recommend to begin weekly to keep the momentum and start strong, however some folks may need to come bi-weekly or more sporadic.

I currently accept Cigna, Aetna, United Health Care, Colorado Access, and Colorado Community Health Alliance (CCHA) / Colorado Medicaid insurances, and their subsidiary plans.
Psychedelic sessions are not currently covered by insurance.
If you have insurance that I am not in-network with, I am happy to provide you with a “Superbill” that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement. Check your out-of-network benefits to see if this is a viable option.

I’m open to having a discussion with potential clients to try to find a fee that works for you. Sliding scale sessions are an option, depending on availability.

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 bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or 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.
