A consultation allows you to tell me briefly what issues you are facing and for us to explore together if you will be a good fit for online counseling services offered with Balancing Eden Counseling LLC. This is typically 15-30 minutes.
An initial intake assessment identifies and explores your “chief complaint”, takes personal history and info, and reviews your current functioning. This intake interview helps the counselor begin to create a treatment plan to help guide the counseling sessions. This session typically lasts 90 minutes. All clients, regardless if you wanting a brief, video, or phone appointment, have to be available to attend this initial intake assessment through video or phone for 90 minutes at its normal rate.
Online video and phone individual sessions are where ongoing clients work one-on-one with a counselor in a safe, caring, and confidential environment. Counseling allows individuals to explore their feelings, beliefs, and behaviors, work through challenging or influential memories, identify aspects of their lives that they would like to change, better understand themselves and others, set personal goals, and work toward desired change. This session typically lasts 30-60 minutes.

Payment
I do require a credit card on file when the initial assessment appointment is made.
Electronic Self-Pay Only
All Major Credit and Debit Cards Accepted
Insurance
Balancing Eden Counseling LLC does accept insurance. I am currently accepting Cigna, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, United Health Care, and Optum.
For those with out-of-network insurance, I am also happy to provide you with an invoice or super-bill for services that you can provide to your provider for direct reimbursement should that be a possibility.
I can also provide a curiosity of billing out-of-network insurance companies, while you only pay your copay and coinsurance. However, if your insurance company does not cover the charges for your session, you will be billed the remainder amount.
Sliding Scale
I offer a sliding fee scale and a reduced fee scholarship to clients without insurance. Contact me to learn about Balancing Eden Counseling LLC’s policies.
Cancellation Policy
If you are a no show for your scheduled therapy appointment, and you have not given notification at least 24 hours in advance, you will be required to pay the full cost of the session.
