Getting Started & The First Session:

 

Call 315-317-2537 or Email KSheffieldLPC@gmail.com

  • Client and therapist identify a day and time that is mutually agreeable and set up a first session.

  • The first session is an overview of presenting concerns that bring you to counseling as well as the history that may contribute to how you are feeling. 

  • Counselor and client collaborate on the therapeutic goals.

  • Sessions are approximately 53 minutes weekly or biweekly depending on the needs and availability of client/therapist. Intensives and/or retreats available for premarital/couples.

  • Supplemental resources and outside session material provided as needed/wanted

  • Collaboration with other professional providers available (psychiatrist, past therapist, etc.)

  • Fees: Individual $135 Couples/Pre-Marital $150, $100 Official Documents. Some Insurance Accepted. ​Payments can be made in the form of cash, check, or credit card.

    • ​Checking your benefits

      • Before your  first session, please call your insurer to find out about your individual plan.  You can learn about your benefits by asking the following questions:

        • Do I have mental health insurance benefits?

        • Do I have a mental health deductible and has it been met?

        • How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?

        • Is approval required from my primary care physician?

  • Cancellation policy: If you do not show up for your scheduled therapy appointment and you have not notified your therapist at least 24 hours in advance, you will be required to pay an $80 cancellation fee.  Insurance benefits do not cover the cost of missed appointments.  Therefore, the cost is your responsibility.
