Andrea Earle, LPC-MS, Therapist & Public Speaker

“there's nothing more intimate in life than simply being understood. And understanding someone else.“

I do not take insurance for a variety of reasons but most insurance companies do allow you to file out of network reimbursement paperwork which is commonly reimbursed at 50 percent of your cost. However you will need to verify this information with your insurance company and you will be responsible for all paperwork completion and submission to your insurance company. I will sign any forms necessary for submission.

Types of Therapy Offered

“You can't stop the future
You can't rewind the past
The only way to learn the secret
...is to press play.”

There are three basic categories of therapy. The first is Individual Therapy. This type of therapy is between you and the therapist. The work done is exclusive to you, your goals and your objectives. While others are a consideration, they are not an active or consistent participant in your therapeutic process. 
The second type of therapy is Couple’s Therapy. I specifically do not call this marriage therapy because in truth your beliefs may not embrace the idea of marriage but you may be in a long term and committed romantic relationship with a significant other. In addition this therapy may not be about romantic commitments at all. This therapy can focus on any and all connections under the umbrella of relationship that involves two active participants. That can be romantic, familial, friendship, professional relationship or a variety of other examples I haven’t mentioned. What is important to understand is this therapy is about no single person, but two separate individuals and their joint relationship. No one person is the therapeutic concern but rather the dynamic relationship between the two people involved is the focus. Both people involved are given active and equal voices in goal setting and forward momentum. 
The last form of therapy offered is Family Therapy. This does focus on the familial relationship of the family dynamic and when practicing this role consideration and client ages must be considered. Often this involves parents and children, with a mixture of children, adults and adolescents being involved. However this can also be a tool utilized for small group outreach where the active participants are peers. The main focus here is the number of individuals involved in these sessions. Family therapy involves at least three and no more than six people. Everyone involved will be given the opportunity for personal input and individual concern consideration. Goal setting and participation is addressed on a case by case basis, specialized to fit the needs at hand.
