Counseling is typically pretty laid back. We basically just talk. I try my best to be a better listener than a talker. I try not to give advice, but to listen and walk alongside you as you process the situation and arrive at the best possible solution.

Sometimes the younger (and occasionally even the older) crowd prefers to fidget while we talk. I have a number of fidget toys in my office. I often find that this helps make the process less awkward for middle-high school students (and even adults) who may not be used to this process.

Yes. Everything that is said in the office stays there. Anything I write down is locked up at the end of the day and there are at least three locks separating it from outside our office.

The only exceptions to the rule are:

• A client tells me they are going to hurt/neglect someone else
• A minor tells me they are in imminent danger (or suicidal), at which point, caregivers are notified and appropriate action is taken.

Once per week, I meet with my supervisor who can see my progress notes for each client. Sometimes we collaborate on the best treatment options for clients. This is all done in a clinical setting and is strictly confidential.

I can offer both telehealth and in-person services. Whichever works best for you. We can meet at my office in Fortville, or online using a secure, HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing platform.

No. But I can provide a "Superbill" for insurance reimbursement. Some things to note:

• This will require an official diagnosis
• I will not bill insurance directly. After your payment is processed, you will receive a "Superbill" to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
• The exact percentage of reimbursement will vary based on your insurance policy

Sessions are $100 each
I am able to accept HSA (Health Savings Account) cards as well as debit, or credit.
