Office hours vary. New clients can contact me by phone at 773.425.6652 or by email faysolutions@gmail.com in order to set up a 10 minute time slot to speak on the phone.
Setting up the appointment:
The purpose of our initial phone conversation is to briefly discuss the reason for seeking therapy, scheduling and payment options. The sessions are generally 50 minutes in duration but an 80 minute intensive session is also available if set up in advance.
Your first visit:
At the end of our intial session and assessment we can discuss the frequency with which sessions will be scheduled. It is often helpful to meet weekly for the first three sessions and many clients prefer to meet weekly, but I do offer alternate scheduling in order to suit your needs. Possibilities include sessions, bi-weekly, monthly or as needed.
Insurance and Fees:
$125 per hour Individual Therapy
$145 per hour Couples and Families
I accept BCBS PPO. I will also accept other PPO insurance as an out-of-network provider.
Payment is due at time of session. I accept checks, cash or credit cards.
Benefits of fee for service (Private Pay):
Each insurance system has rules of operating and goals that may be different from therapist/client goals. Those who wish to be in control of their treatment often chose fee for service in order to partner with me to bring about the change they desire. This allows for the opportunity to schedule extended therapy sessions and provides additional confidentiality, as there is no paperwork to file with an insurance company.
