For your convenience, we accept a range of payment methods, including major health insurance providers and self-pay options.
Office or Virtual Sessions
NOTE: Self- pay ensures your confidentiality, as insurance companies require therapists to submit your confidential and private information. Also, insurance companies may try to dictate the length and type of treatment, which should be determined by the therapist and the client.
I accept all major credit cards as forms of payment. Payment is due at the time of service.
If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure to cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled session to avoid incurring a cancellation fee.
Please reach us at info@MentalUpLift.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
It gives us the ability to be 100% focused on what’s best for you, without having to cater to insurance regulations. The most common benefits are:
Privacy- When you go through insurance, your records are accessible
to the insurance agency. This can be particularly concerning when seeking mental
health care because there are certain fields—such as aviation, the army, politics,
and so on—where having that kind of sensitive information on your record could
come back to harm your career.
Get the Care You Actually Need- With private pay, you won’t be limited in your care. Choose any therapist you want, and get the care you need regardless of whether or not you have a
diagnosable condition. Because let’s face it: mental health exists on a wide spectrum, and there are millions of people who may not qualify for something like Major Depressive Disorder or Generalized Anxiety Disorder, but who still need support.
Get as Many Sessions as You Need- Insurance often limits the number of appointments you're able to have in a year—usually, this number is around 5 or 6. But we find that for most people, reaching your mental wellness goals takes 12-20 appointments on average.
Get Fully Focused Care- Remember that private pay clinicians almost always have fewer patients than those who take insurance—which means they have more mental bandwidth and can provide fully focused, thoughtfully individualized care (without having to constantly jump through hoops for the insurance company).

Counseling is conducted by licensed therapists with advanced education, counseling objectives include addressing mental health concerns, emotional healing and processing, developing coping strategies, and offering support and guidance.
Coaching is future-oriented, emphasizes goal-setting, enhancing performance, and boosting well-being to achieve personalized objectives. It differs from therapy in that it typically doesn't delve into deep psychological issues or past trauma but instead focuses on present challenges and future growth.
**Coaching is not a substitute for professional counseling or therapy. Each service is tailored to meet your specific needs, whether you're seeking therapy or guidance for personal growth.
You can expect a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts, emotions and experiences with a licensed therapist. Through active listening and empathetic understanding, your therapist will help you identify and address underlying concerns, process emotions and develop coping strategies to manage challenges. You'll gain insight into patterns and behaviors, and work together to establish personalized goals and plans for healing, growth and improved mental well-being.
You can expect a supportive and collaborative conversation tailored to your needs and goals. During a coaching session, you'll have the opportunity to explore your goals, challenges, and strategies for overcoming hurdles. Your dedicated coach will offer expert guidance, and accountability, empowering you to reach your full potential.
The duration of a wellness program varies significantly from person to person, depending on individual objectives and needs. While some programs may span just a few months, others may extend for a year or longer, allowing for personalized growth and transformative progress.
I'm thrilled to see you maximizing your sessions! Your engagement and commitment are essential to reaping the full benefits. By applying the insights and strategies from our sessions to your everyday life, you'll empower yourself to achieve lasting growth and meaningful success. Keep up the great work!
While friends and family can offer emotional support, a trained mental health professional provides invaluable expertise and objectivity. They offer fresh perspectives, new skills, and a non-judgmental listening ear, ensuring complete confidentiality and guiding self-reflection without emotional burden. Unlike confiding in loved ones, therapy avoids potential long-term awkwardness, allowing you to heal and grow without compromising meaningful relationships. By seeking professional help, you can navigate challenges with confidence and cultivate a stronger, more resilient self.
