 FAQs

  • There are MANY benefits to group counseling, but to name a few- Groups allow participants to connect with others in a similar phase of life or struggling with similar issues. This can reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness, increase social connection and support, and even improve confidence and self-esteem.

  • The fee for group counseling is $50 per person per session. For clients who are financially limited, group counseling can be a cost effective way to find support while not adding financial strain.

  • I accept clients insured with Aetna, and private pay. I can provide a superbill for clients who wish to be reimbursed by their insurance using out-of-network benefits. I also offer sliding scale on and limited basis.

    Group counseling often does not fall under covered services with insurance companies, unless the client has a specific diagnosis that is being treated with group therapy.

  • The length depends on the type of group, but typically groups are 60-90 minutes long. Groups meet weekly for a specific length of time (6/8/10/12 weeks).

  • For individual sessions, I always allow moms to bring their baby. For in-person group sessions, I ask that babies are left with another caregiver, unless the group is specifically for moms and babies. If you are attending a virtual group, you are always welcome to have baby with you!

  • While I am bound by legal and ethical codes that require I keep all client information confidential, I cannot guarantee that group members will do so. However, as a group we foster an atmosphere of trust and agree as a group not to share anything that is said outside the group, unless they are sharing their own information and experience.
