4. How do I prepare for an online therapy session?
Before your online therapy session, make sure you have a private and quiet space where you won't be interrupted. Test your internet connection and any equipment you'll be using, such as a webcam or microphone. Finally, take some time to think about what you want to talk about during the session.

5. Do you take insurance?

Depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for services to be covered in full or in part. Please contact your provider to verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services.

I’d recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:

  • Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?

  • Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?

  • Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?

  • Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?
