The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me, to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed.
Luke 4:18 ESV

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHY PASTORAL COUNSELING?
The theological and clinical psychotherapeutic training Pastoral Counselors receive equips them to listen beyond the psychological and physical concerns of a client. As tripartite beings (body, soul, spirit), a panoramic exploration into the spirituality of a client is necessary to identify the root source of a client's issues. Eliminating the spirituality of a person is equal to eliminating a primary color from the rainbow. One does not obtain a full illustration of a person without it.
HOW OFTEN WILL I NEED COUNSELING?
Initially, I will recommend weekly sessions to establish rapport with the client. As a client progresses, I will recommend pushing appointments into bi-weekly, tri-weekly or monthly in accordance with the client's developmental progression. How long you are in counseling is totally dependant on "you".
WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?
WHAT ARE YOUR FEES?
I work strictly on a Sliding Fee Scale:
Gross Monthly Income + Number of Family Members in Household= Fee.
*Fee range :$45 - $130
Clients are asked to complete a Temperament questionnaire. The cost for the questionnaire is $30.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT?
DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?
1) Clients will fill out intake documents to establish a personal file in a HIPAA secure system. If requesting Marriage counseling both husband and wife will complete their own individual documents.
2) Clients will receive a link via email to complete the APS questionnaire. The assessment provides a detailed snapshot of a person's strengths and weaknesses The report provided establishes the strengths and weaknesses within the individual's temperament providing assistance in personal growth issues and improvement of relationship dynamics.
3) During the first session (also known as the "intake" session) I review client information and clients discuss their presenting problems. A counseling schedule is established. *Be advised some intake sessions may require an additional session.
No, I do not take insurance. I am able to provide an invoice with appropriate coding for clients to submit to their insurance company. However, I do not file insurance forms for clients. Please contact your insurance to verify coverage for out-of-network providers.
HOW LONG IS A SESSION?
A clinical hour is 50 minutes however, sessions are scheduled in 60 minute increments.
An appointment for you is a time exclusively scheduled and dedicated to you. When I have a 24-hour notice, I am able to offer the time slot to another person.
If cancellations come with more than 24 hours, or you reschedule the appointment there is no charge for the cancelled appointment.
With less than 24 hours or a no-show you will be charged for the full hour.
