IMPORTANT DETAILS BEFORE YOUR FIRST SESSION
Scheduling, Rates, and What to Expect
Scheduling
You may contact me at 682-429-6884 or email me at keriislistening@gmail.com to schedule an appointment. Please leave a message and I will try my best to get back to you within 24 hours. Please specify if you are having an emergency. If you consider your emergency to be life-threatening, please call 911 immediately.
Therapy sessions are available Monday–Friday from 9:00am–5:00pm and Saturday from 9:00am–12:00pm. I provide online counseling, phone sessions, and tele-health online services. Client comfort is a priority. At this time I am not offering in office visits.
Fees
I am an Out of Network provider and require payment in full at the time of service. I accept private pay only, and my fee is $175 for a 50 minute session. Be aware that insurance claims cannot be filed without disclosing your psychological diagnosis and sharing your personal information. Sometimes filing insurance claims require giving a client an unearned diagnosis, just to be reimbursed. Insurance can also limit the amount of sessions a client can attend, exerting illegitimate control over a persons care. These are all unethical standards in which I cannot comply.
I provide sliding scale fees to clients that would not be able to attend counseling due to financial constraints. There is an application process based on individual circumstances, and the sliding scale contract expires for re-evaluation after six months.
What to Expect
During your first counseling session we’ll focus on getting to know you and understanding what brought you to therapy. We’ll review confidentiality, talk about your goals, and explore what’s been feeling most challenging.
