I also offer self-pay therapy sessions for those who do not carry mental health insurance or individuals who wish to receive psychotherapy without using their insurance. Self-pay therapy provides a straightforward session fee and enables you to seek mental health counseling without submitting therapy claims to your health insurance plan. For many, this translates to greater privacy from their insurer and the freedom to select a therapist based on the relationship and approach that resonates with them.
Self-pay options allow for flexibility in planning our work together, free from an insurer’s limitations. Depending on your goals and clinical needs, we can choose from standard, shorter, or extended sessions and meet at a frequency that suits you. Additionally, we can incorporate nutrition counseling if that aligns with your treatment needs. We will discuss the fee for each personalized therapy solution option before scheduling.
Our work together in mental health counseling is aimed at understanding who you are now and who you want to be. We may learn how to face conflicts, make tough decisions, or try new things. Other times, we uncover strengths and resilience, finding the light and purpose in our experiences. I tailor the work to your interests, needs, and comfort level. Real work can include laughing, creating art, finding interests, doing something you are scared of, or imagining possibilities in personalized therapy solutions.
You can expect to create a partnership and work as a team to identify and reach your goals. Develop a deeper understanding of yourself and aim to find balance among life’s challenges and joys. As you learn to navigate the world as your authentic self, we will discover the skills and tools that work best for you. These tools will help you feel more comfortable and confident in your relationships, abilities, and endeavors.
Every individual is unique, which is why Awaken Wellness Therapy offers personalized therapy solutions tailored to your specific needs. Whether you are facing ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, or navigating life transitions and relationship issues, we also provide nutrition counseling and stress management to help you navigate your challenges.
Before committing, I offer a free consultation call lasting 15-30 minutes where we will discuss your previous treatment, if applicable, and your current needs. Whether you are seeking mental health counseling or looking for nutrition counseling, we will explore personalized therapy solutions that suit you. If we determine that therapy with Awaken Wellness Therapy is the right fit, we'll discuss insurance coverage or fee for service and schedule your first appointment.
Once you are scheduled for mental health counseling or nutrition counseling, you will receive an email granting access to the client portal on the Simple Practice platform.

These important intake documents include the Notice of Privacy Practices, Informed Consent for Psychotherapy, Practice Policies, Assignment of Benefits, Consent for Telehealth Consultation, and an intake form designed to provide insight into your history, symptoms, and the current reasons for seeking personalized therapy solutions.
You can expect to be introduced to the space and given an opportunity to get comfortable. We will gently uncover more about you and your goals for treatment through both mental health counseling and nutrition counseling. During our discussions, we will explore different approaches and what you can expect from your personalized therapy solutions in our sessions.
