The first session is called an intake assessment. We will take some time to answer any questions you may have, review intake paperwork, and then we will dive into a bio-psycho-social mental health assessment so that I can get to know you and the experiences that you have had in your life. This appointment will take approximately 60 minutes.
The second session I will introduce an art therapy directive to help us explore treatment planning. This gives us an opportunity to have a conversation about what you would like to achieve in therapy, and how I can assist you in those goals. This appointment will take approximately 50 minutes.
The third session will start to feel more like what a typical session is like. We will be done with all of the up front formal aspects, and can really start to dive into the work.
Sessions last approximately 50 minutes.
*Due to the pandemic, all sessions are currently being offered virtually.
We prefer to work in person due to the nature of our work, however virtual appointments are also available. These can be helpful during the winter when weather is dangerous, during long-term travel, when sick, after birth, and many other situations.
At Root to Crown, we use Doxy.me, a HIPAA compliant online platform.
You will be given a link to our virtual waiting room prior to your session.

You may also choose to seek reimbursement from your insurance independently. Please verify specific requirements for reimbursement with your insurance provider prior to your first session.

Why doesn't Root to Crown accept insurance?
The decision to not accept insurance was made intentionally to be better able to serve clients at Root to Crown. Choosing to bypass insurance allows me to work with you in a way that I find more effective than what insurance sometimes limits. Some of the benefits or fee-for-service care include: keeping your personal mental health information private by avoiding submitting a diagnosis to your insurance provider, individualized length of services/non-time-limited services, more productive time together instead of using our session for insurance required tasks, and straightforward payment. Additionally, some clients find that due to high deductibles with their insurance plans, they end up paying a high portion of the cost of their therapy sessions, and find more benefit in working with someone who they feel is a good fit for them, rather than who their insurance plan dictates for them.
