New Clients Begin Here
Welcome! I'm glad you're here.
I am currently accepting new adult clients for individual telehealth counseling. Before beginning, please review the information below to determine whether my services, availability, and practice policies are a good fit for your needs.
Important to Know Before Inquiring
Session Fee: $175 per 50-minute counseling session.
Insurance: Private pay only. Insurance is not accepted or billed directly. Superbills to submit to your insurance can be offered upon request after prior discussion of diagnosis with Tyler.
Payment: A valid payment card must be securely maintained on file for automatic payment processing. Payment authorization is completed during intake.
Telehealth: Individual counseling for adults ages 18 and older in eligible locations within Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina.
Counseling Availability
Tuesday: 9:00 AM – 7:00 PM Eastern
Wednesday: 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM Eastern
Appointment availability within these hours may vary.
Insurance & Out-of-Network Benefits
Although I do not accept or bill insurance directly, I accept Health Savings Account (HSA) cards and can provide superbills for clients who wish to seek potential out-of-network reimbursement.
Please be aware that reimbursement depends on your individual insurance plan and is not guaranteed. A clinical diagnosis from Tyler is required for reimbursement, and clients remain responsible for the full session fee regardless of insurance benefits.
If you intend to seek out-of-network reimbursement, I encourage you to verify your benefits with your insurance provider before beginning counseling.
Telehealth Counseling & Eligibility
I provide individual telehealth counseling for adults ages 18 and older. In-person, couples, family, and minor counseling services are not available.
I am licensed in Tennessee, North Carolina, and Georgia, and am a Registered Telehealth Professional Provider in Florida and South Carolina.
Clients must meet applicable residency and telehealth eligibility requirements and be physically located in a state where I am authorized to provide counseling at the time of each session.
To protect confidentiality, adult clients are asked to initiate their own counseling inquiries and scheduling requests.
Attending Your Sessions
Counseling sessions are conducted through Google Meet from a private location with a reliable internet connection.
Computer: Access your session using Google Chrome.
Mobile device: Download the Google Meet app before your appointment.
Meeting link: Your link will be emailed at the time of your appointment and cannot be sent in advance.

Communication & Your Client Portal
Email is our primary method of communication.
Our office uses the secure SimplePractice Client Portal for scheduling, messages, paperwork, and billing.
