WhAT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE YOU TAKING DURING THE CURRENT COVID-19 PANDEMIC?
The following precautions are being taken to minimize risk of infection within my office suite:
Seating in the waiting room has been arranged for appropriate physical distancing.
Safe distancing (6 ft minimum) is maintained in common areas.
Face coverings are strongly encouraged in common areas and will be available if needed.
Restroom soap dispensers are maintained, and everyone is encouraged to wash hands.
Hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol is available in the waiting room and in all therapy/testing rooms.
Appointments are scheduled to minimize the number of people in the waiting room.
All clients are asked to wait in their cars or outside until no earlier than 5 minutes before appointment time.
Commonly touched areas including doorknobs, pens, payment systems, faucets, etc. are sanitized frequently.
Tissues and trash bins are easily accessed. Trash is disposed of on a frequent basis.
Common areas are cleaned routinely.
Anyone with a sore throat, cough, or fever will be asked to leave. Follow up arrangements will be made as appropriate.
All clients are expected to inform their clinician if they or any of their close contacts test positive for COVID-19. Likewise, if any clinicians working in the suite or their close contacts test positive for COVID-19, all clients with likely exposure will be notified.
These protocols have been initiated for the health and safety of all clients and clinicians. Please note that each clinician in the suite operates independently and may have additional protocols regarding COVID-19 precautions. However, each clinician has agreed to the above regulations for the common areas of the suite (i.e., waiting room, hallway, and restroom). These protocols were implemented May 28, 2020 and are periodically reviewed and are subject to change.
Where are you located?
My practice is located at 3660 Dauphin Street, Suite A1, Mobile, AL, 36608.
Do you have evening appointments available?
I am unable to offer evening appointments at this time. My current openings are Tuesdays and Thursdays between 8:30 AM and 12:30 PM.
How long does each therapy session take?
Each session lasts approximately 50 minutes, excluding the intake session, which is 90 minutes.
How much does it cost?
The initial intake session (90 minutes) costs $135 and all subsequent sessions (50 minutes) cost $100 each.
Do you accept insurance?
At this time, I do not accept insurance. I can accept cash, check, and credit/debit cards.
Do you offer sliding scale rates?
I have a limited amount of sliding scale slots available. I charge a flat initial fee of $135 for the intake session, but provided that I have a slot available, I am happy to adjust your subsequent fee based on your household income and the number of people living in your home. To qualify for the sliding scale, please bring documentation demonstrating your level of income (pay stubs, tax documents, etc.) to either the first or second session.
Do you charge for phone consultations?
I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation prior to scheduling your first appointment to help us both discern whether we would be a good fit moving forward.
How long can I expect therapy to last?
My hope is not to keep you in therapy forever. I want to equip you with what you need and send you on your way. Therefore, therapy will be as short as possible and as long as it takes. Most clients are able to see progress within a few months.
