Frequently Asked Questions

Where are you located?

All the services I provide are through video/Zoom.

My office is in Northern New Jersey, USA. However, I am willing to explore travel for a client who truly wants it.

    •     Coaching & Group Therapy: I have created several coaching and group programs for situational, less severe problems, where we can solve non-clinical problems.
          Therapy: If you want therapy with me, I take most insurance plans – but must be in NJ at the time of the session. Click on this link https://familywellnesscoaching.com/contact/ to book a free 15-minute consultation first and we can check on your insurance afterward.

I typically have openings between 10 am and 7 pm Monday through Friday. Saturdays can be an option under special circumstances.

You want to be in a quiet place without distractions. For your safety, please, no meeting while you are driving. I also recommend you keep a notepad with you.

When we change, everything else changes. The expectation is that with a revised point of view and new information, you can begin thinking, feeling, and behaving differently after the first meeting. 

Coaching: These will likely be 60 minutes long. However, together we can review your needs and agree on the ideal meeting length for you.

Group Therapy: These will likely be 90-minute sessions – 3-5 men.

Therapy: 60-minute weekly Zoom sessions are the norm for most clients.

Coaching & Group Sessions: I accept all major credit cards and charge your card at each meeting’s conclusion. You will be able to keep your credit card on file.

Coaching: Coaching or Group sessions are not covered by insurance.

Therapy: Yes, I take insurance when providing therapy. I accept most insurance carriers. After our consultation, I will send you a link to fill out your insurance information.

I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. Clients who cancel less than 24 hours in advance are subject to the appointment’s full fee. If you email within this timeframe, I will consider your appointment canceled.

However, I understand that life happens. Should you have an emergency and be unable to cancel before 24 hours, I will waive the cancellation fee.

Yes! I strive to do my best to maintain integrity in serving a diverse client base, including continuing education around cultural competence, anti-racism, body neutrality, and other forms of discrimination that clients may face.

Coaching does not require formal psychotherapeutic education. Coaching is for working with more situational, less severe problems. It is not covered by insurance. It does not require a diagnosis. We can use it to solve non-clinical problems.

Psychotherapy requires a master’s degree and that the clinician be licensed by the state and the work focuses on the presenting problem and healing from the past through psychodynamic work. Therapy is for working with a medical necessity, it will require a diagnosis, and that we treat the diagnosis.

Coaching: I have created a variety of coaching programs you can choose from. However, if what you need isn’t listed, we can develop it.

Therapy: I generally recommend new therapy clients meet weekly for the first six to twelve sessions, as we set the foundation for success and create momentum. From there, some clients choose to continue every other week. Long-term clients can set various schedules that meet their therapeutic goals while continuing to have regular check-ins about their progress, as well as whether they should continue therapy and with what frequency. I also welcome back previous clients who are ready for another layer of healing.
