***While I do not use a sliding scale fee schedule, I will consider your personal circumstances to determine if a fee reduction is possible***

 I do not currently belong to any insurance panels. Many people prefer not to involve their insurance companies for the sake of privacy or other personal reasons. If you like, I will give you an insurance form to submit to your insurance carrier. I would be considered an out-of-network provider. As I request that you pay at the time of service, insurance reimbursement will go directly to you. 

Appointment cancellation policy: 24 hours advance notice of cancellation is required. Appointments not cancelled within that time frame will be billed to you personally at the full session fee (insurance benefits will not apply). In the event of sudden illness, emergency, or death in the family, this fee may be waived or reduced at the discretion of your therapist.

An excerpt from above link:

EARLY SIGNS OF ABUSE:

Quick whirlwind romance

• Wanting to be with you all the time; tracking what you’re doing and who you’re with

• Jealousy at any perceived attention to or from others

• Attempts to isolate you in the guise of loving behavior (You don’t need to work or go to school; we

only need each other, criticizing friends/family for not caring about you)

• Hypersensitivity to perceived slights

• Quick to blame others for the abuse

• Pressures you into doing things you aren’t comfortable with (If you really love me, you’ll do this for me)

QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF:

• Are you ever afraid of your partner?

• Has your partner ever actually hurt or threatened to hurt you physically or someone you care about?

• Does your partner ever force you to engage in sexual activities that make you uncomfortable?

• Do you constantly worry about your partner's moods and change your behavior to deal with them?

• Does your partner try to control where you go, what you do and who you see?

• Does your partner constantly accuse you of having affairs?

• Have you stopped seeing family or friends to avoid your partner's jealousy or anger?

• Does your partner control your finances?

• Does he/she threaten to kill him/herself if you leave?

• Does your partner claim his/her temper is out of control due to alcohol, drugs or because he/she

   had an abusive childhood?

If you answer yes to some or all of these questions, you maybe suffering abuse. You are not to blame &  you don't need to face domestic violence alone.
