What are your office hours?
I am typically in the office Monday through Thursday, 9am – 3pm.
Do you take insurance?
The short answer is no. Patients pay me directly for my services.
Why don’t you take insurance?
Without involving insurance companies, I am able to eliminate the intrusion of a third party into your treatment and maintain your privacy. I also do not believe insurance companies have your or my best interests at heart.
However, if you have out-of-network benefits with a private insurance company, you may be able to submit a claim and get reimbursed directly.
Can you help me file with my insurance?
Yes, if you have private insurance, I can provide you with a receipt and the codes required for you to file with your insurance, but I won’t file a claim for you. I can’t do this for Medicaid or Medicare.
What are the costs?
Please expect an investment of $4000-$6000 for the first 4-6 months of treatment. Some patients opt for a payment plan.
Do you offer a sliding scale?
I do not.
How do I pay?
You can pay online via credit card.
How often will I come?
Anywhere from weekly to every other week.
Do you do psychological testing?
No, but I can recommend folks who do.
How do I make an appointment?

Can I cancel an appointment? Do you have a cancellation policy?
Because I do not overbook my time, I ask that you give two business days’ notice when canceling an appointment.
Without appropriate notice, I charge for missed appointments.
Are you licensed?
Yes, I am licensed by the Kentucky Board of Medical Licensure and am board-certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
How long have you been in practice?
I became a physician in 2010.
What age ranges do you work with?
My specialty is seeing women 30 and older.
Is our work confidential?
Yes, with a few exceptions – if you say you’re going to harm yourself or someone else, or if I hear about anyone being abused or neglected, I am obligated to intervene for safety reasons
How long will we work together?
It depends.
If we’re a fit, we’ll agree to work together for at least four months. Many of my patients end up working with me for close to a year. The focus is working intensively to help you reach your goals, however long that takes!
