FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • We are not contracted with any insurance panels. We feel this allows us to provide the most comprehensive care to best meet your needs. We, otherwise, provide superbills for those with out-of-network coverage seeking reimbursement. If you are uncertain if your plan includes reimbursement options for out-of-network services, we encourage you to contact your insurance carrier to inquire about your coverage, and specifically, if they cover CPT codes 97802 and 97803.

  • We recommend starting with weekly sessions for building rapport, trust, accountability and consistency. As you’re progressing, we’ll decrease appropriately. We find that clients who begin meeting less frequently tend to feel less connected to the work and may struggle to make progress. That said, we also understand weekly sessions may not feasible for you at this time, and will work with you to find a frequency that both ensures you receive the support you need, and honors your circumstancial needs.

  • The Alliance for Eating Disorders defines eating disorders as “psychological conditions that affect your relationship with food.” Eating disorders affect people of all ages, genders, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations and cultural backgrounds. The behaviors through which an eating disorder manifests include: restricting, overeating/bingeing, purging (via vomiting, laxatives, diuretics), compensatory exercise, and obsessive thoughts about weight or body size. It is not uncommon for someone struggling with an eating disorder to vacillate between more than one of these behaviors over the course of their life.

    Disordered eating can include any of these behaviors and may begin with a focus on “healthy” eating and/or dieting. While dieting may seem harmless, or even temporary, it can set the stage for a deeper obsession with “healthy” eating (often referred to as orthorexia) or the development of an eating disorder, both of which have a profound impact on one’s quality of life.

    In many cases, an eating disorder or disordered eating may go unnoticed due to the associated secrecy and shame. Seeking support can feel incredibly scary for a number of reasons, which often prevents those suffering from getting the help they need and deserve. If any of this rings true for you, we invite you to reach out to learn more about how we can help.
