Appointments and Cancellations. During the initial consultation, your therapist will attempt to gain a general understanding of your situa- tion and determine the most appropriate treatment. We believe it is important for clients to take an ac- tive part in their treatment, so don’t hesitate to ask questions.

While it is likely that you will make progress, there are no guarantees.

Insurance will not cover charges for unkept/late cancelled appointments, so you will personally be responsible for such charges.

If you have a contagious illness, do not come to the office. Call to cancel, even without 24 hours notice. You will not be charged. FEES AND HEALTH INSURANCE Most health plans cover part of our fee.
