What is an LPC?
Licensed Professional Counselors meet educational and training requirements including at least a Master's degree, three years of supervised professional clinical experience and successful completion of a state examination. After receiving licensure, LPCs are required to earn 35 continuing education units bi-annually to maintain their status.
Counselors are regulated by the State of Georgia and accountable to the Georgia Composite Board of Professional Counselors, Marriage and Family Therapists and Social Workers. LPCs work with children, adolescents and adults in short or long-term therapy based on clients' needs and in a variety of different settings.
What are your hours?
I see clients in the evenings between 5pm and 8pm.
What are your fees?
My fee is 100 dollars per session. A session generally lasts 50-55 minutes . I do not bill insurance in most cases, so you would be responsible for the fee. in some cases, if you would like to utilize my services on an out-of-network basis, I can provide you with a statement that you can submit for reimbursement of my fees. You need to check with your insurance company to see if you have out-of-network benefits.
What about confidentiality?
Your visits with me are confidential. However, there are certain situations involving abuse, neglect or the intent to harm yourself or others that I am legally obligated to disclose.
Will you be in contact with other professionals involved in my care?
With your permission and agreement I will contact any psychiatrist, doctor, school counselor, teacher etc. that should be involved in your care. I believe it is important that all professionals involved work together to provide the best possible treatment. I will not contact anyone without your written permission.
What is your stance on medication?
Many of my clients seek therapy as a way of avoiding medication and are often times successful in doing so. On the other hand, there are those who feel strongly that the combination of medication and therapy is right for them. I will talk with you individually and provide input to help you make a decision about the use of medication. I cannot prescribe medication.
