Licensed Professional Counselor

Our practice is founded on the mission of providing authentic and evidenced-based services. We prioritize meeting patients where they are, allowing them to be the experts of themselves, and providing resources and insight to help them meet their goals. The therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of the therapeutic process. We take an interest in our patient's goals and use various modalities to help them be successful.

We provide the following for our therapists:

• Credentialing Across Multiple Payers: We facilitate credentialing across a range of payer networks. Providers typically gain approval and become in-network with most insurance companies within a matter of weeks.
• Efficient Billing: We ensure prompt billing and file claims and monitor their progress. Compensation is provided for no-shows and late cancellations.
• Flexibility in Practice: You have autonomy over your schedule, which patients you see, and the choice between telehealth or in-person sessions.
• Comprehensive Support System: Access to consultation and administrative support to assist you in navigating any challenges.
• Referral Network and Marketing Support: We actively promote your services to maintain a consistent caseload. Additionally, opportunities are available for you to engage in marketing initiatives to enhance your brand visibility and connect with your target patient.
