Depending on the nature of the relationship and the structure of the specific protocol being used, I will provide a recommendation most appropriate for both you and your loved one. If you are specifically seeking individual EMDR therapy, your loved one will likely not be included in the work. If you are interested in a blend of trauma work and family work, we can design a structure with those goals in mind. In family therapy, most motivated participants are encouraged to attend.

I am in network with Humana, Aetna, Highmark, and accept several EAP plans. I am an out-of-network provider with most other insurers. I can provide documentation for your insurer to reimburse you for the cost of our sessions. Check with your insurer for requirements. To note, PPO and POS plans often come with OON benefits. HMO and EPO plans often do not. I also offer a variety of payment options to accommodate individual financial needs. Rates: Comprehensive Intake Assessment: $200 60 Minute Individual Sessions: $165/$185 60 Minutes Family or Couples Sessions: $200 90 Minute Extended Sessions Available (common for EMDR therapy) EMDR Intensive: $1420 (Cost includes assessment appointment and closing session with follow-up recommendations)

A typical therapy session lasts an hour. However, some trauma processing sessions may be longer depending on the target being addressed, the client's response, and goals of the session. The client's safety is the number one priority. An EMDR intensive is scheduled for 8 session hours completed in 1.5 days.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) has 8 phases. During the first 3 phases we will develop a plan for treatment and prepare your body for the intensity of trauma processing in phases 4-7. During phases 8, we evaluate progress made and collaborate on the goals of future sessions. During phases 4-7, you may experience intense feelings, emotions, and gain new insights. Your body may react physically as it is changing and healing from your past. I will be with you every step of the way guiding you and helping you stick with it despite the discomfort you may feel.

Depending on the severity of your symptoms, I may recommend a different level of care. If you have stability and are able to address current problems in outpatient therapy, I may recommend various community-based programs, that could supplement your recovery. Recovering from addiction is a lifelong journey and not all methods work for everyone. I will help you explore options and develop a personal program you can commit to long term.
