Good Faith Estimate

I am not paneled with any insurance companies, but I do have superbills automatically generated on the first of every month that can be submitted to insurance companies for reimbursement.

If you would like to seek reimbursement for services, you can call their insurance company before beginning treatment to ask if the you or the child has out-of-network mental health benefits, if those benefits cover in-person and telehealth sessions with procedure codes 90791, 90837, 90834, 90832, 90846, and 90847 and what portion of payments they will be responsible for.

It would be up to you to submit superbills to the insurance company if you are seeking reimbursement.

In the beginning of treatment, I meet with children individually once a week for a 50 minute session. These are in person at my office in Scottsdale.

For therapeutic reasons, I won’t be able to check in with parent or guardian in front of the child as I’ve found this disrupts the process and rapport.

For every three sessions I have with a child I will have a parenting session via telehealth. This usually works out to once a month meetings with the parent or guardian. These appointments include me providing an update about what the child is working through in the playroom and gathering an update from you about how they are doing at home and school.

This often leads into modeling and discussing different techniques or strategies that help parent and/or guardian feel more confident responding to and helping the child at home.

We can have parent consultations more often if you feel it’s needed.

You can let them know that they’ll be coming to play with me, Kathryn, in my playroom, which is filled with lots of toys.

If they ask why, you can explain that special playtime can sometimes be helpful. It’s also more beneficial to encourage children by saying something like, "This is your time and you can play however you need to." This reinforces the idea that therapy is a safe space for self-expression without any imposed expectations.

Depending on the child's age and how much they understand about their behaviors and challenges, you might also mention that my job is to support kids with their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. That it can help to have someone to talk to or play with when things are hard or you’re having a tough time.

I provide both in-person sessions at my office in Scottsdale and online/telehealth therapy options for those across Arizona.

This would only be offered for individual therapy or parent coaching, I do not provide play therapy services virtually.

Sandtray therapy, like art therapy, is a creative and flexible way to explore thoughts and feelings. It can be adapted to fit each person’s unique needs and can work well with many different therapy styles.

The experiential component of sandtray therapy is one of its most powerful and transformative aspects. Unlike traditional talk therapy, which relies heavily on verbal communication, sandtray therapy engages clients on a sensory, emotional, and physical level—making it a deeply felt, hands-on experience.

I offer this therapy to children and adults if appropriate.
