“Courage is not an ability one either possesses or lacks. Courage is the willingness to engage in a risk-taking behavior regardless of whether the consequences are unknown or possibly adverse. We are capable of courageous behavior provided we are willing to engage in it.”
— Alfred Adler

FAQs
What is your rate? Do you take insurance?
The 15-minute consultation is free. My hourly rate is $150. I take Aetna, Anthem BCBS of GA, BCBS of Massachusetts, and Quest Behavioral Health for all three states. Superbills are available for out-of-network reimbursement. Payment is due at booking. Vocational Rehabilitation services are provided by referral with required documentation. Program evaluation and consultation fees determined by scope of project.
Are services available in Spanish?
Si, hablo español. Counseling, coaching, and trainings can be delivered fully in Spanish or bilingually.
What is vocational assessment?
A standardized evaluation of your work history, education, skills, and functional limits, paired with labor market data. Results outline realistic job targets, training needs, and return-to-work options. Reports can be shared with VR, physicians, or employers when permitted.
What is Reflective Documentary Supervision?
RDS is a conceptual framework that supplements humanistic supervision. Supervisees use personal artifacts (photos, journals, autobiographical notes) to examine identity, family-of-origin, and lived experience. Grounded in reflective practice, cultural competence, and family-of-origin awareness, RDS builds self-awareness, reduces bias, and aligns personal and professional identity.
What is your cancellation policy?
Cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours in advance to avoid a late fee equal to the session rate. No-shows are charged $75.
Do you offer telehealth?
Yes, where permitted. Sessions are delivered through a secure platform called Headway where you can access my profile and booking calendar. You will receive a private link before each appointment.
Where is your preferred modality for providing services?
Virtual sessions are preferred. I use private co-working offices when in New Orleans, LA; Newark, NJ; and Savannah, GA. Professional development events and retreats planned for Barranquilla, Cartagena, or Santa Marta, Colombia.

This practice does not provide emergency services. In crisis, call or text 988, or go to the nearest emergency room.
