Spirit Moves LLC | How We Begin

How We Begin: Couples

How We Begin:
Our first session is an initial consultation—a time to explore what brings you here, what’s possible, and what support might help you move from the dance you’re in to the dance you long to be in. We'll look at the inner and outer resources available to you, and begin orienting toward your intentions. During our initial meeting, we’ll both assess whether we’re a good fit to work together. If we decide to continue, we’ll schedule follow-up sessions and begin the process. If it seems you would be better supported by someone else, I’ll be happy to offer referrals to trusted colleagues who may be a better match for your needs.

Level of Care:

Note: My practice can not meet meet the high acuity needs of individuals or couples where one or both people are actively suicidal, homicidal, have an untreated addiction, are engaged in domestic violence, have needed psychiatric hospitalization in the past year or are seeking a legal evaluation for custody.

Rescheduling:

If you are unable to keep your scheduled appointment for any reason, please contact me by phone. My cancellation policy is no fee for more than 48 hours and the full fee for less than 48 hours of notice. Medical emergencies are the exception. If it is possible to reschedule within the same business week, the fee is waived.

Insurance:
Please note that couples therapy is not billable service for any insurance plan. While some therapists will bill couples therapy using a code for family therapy, I do not. I can offer an invoice for reimbursement from your HSA or Flex Spending Account.

Investment:

Receiving the support of a devoted, experienced and well trained couples therapist or coach requires an investment on your part. The biggest investment is your openness and willingness to grow beyond your current level of development as individuals and as a couple.

It also requires an energy exchange of a set fee for the time we share together.
