A Few Words From Allison:

Hi, my name is Allison, and I am so excited that you are here. Simply taking the time to search for a counselor marks a huge step in the journey towards healing and demonstrates commitment and willingness to prioritize self-growth and well-being. It is my privilege to walk with you through your journey, whether you are facing challenges, seeking self-discovery, seeking to improve upon interpersonal relationships, or looking for help with goal setting and attainment.

Throughout our lives, our identity is built upon stories that we tell ourselves based on our perception of the world around us. That could include societal influences as well as labels that others have placed upon us. This identity that we develop can facilitate growth or hinder it. Throughout our journey together, it is my hope that we work collaboratively to re-author your story in a way that aligns with your authentic self while developing upon your many strengths and disconnecting from unhealthy thought patterns. Everyone’s journey is unique to themselves, and it is my goal to meet each client where they currently are at each step of the way while creating a safe and comfortable environment where clients feel free to demonstrate authentic self-expression.

“Mental health problems don’t define who you are. They are something that you experience. You walk in the rain, and you feel the rain, but you are not the rain.”

FAQs

HOW MUCH DOES A SESSION COST?

My fee for an intake session and a 50-minute session is $95.

Rise Therapy Center is an out-of-network provider with many insurance companies, which means that we do not bill insurance companies directly. Your counseling services may be eligible for reimbursement through out-of-network benefits, medical spending (FSAs), or health savings accounts (HSAs). Health insurance plans and benefits vary. If you are interested in using your health insurance, please call your insurance provider to inquire about reimbursement for out-of-network counseling services.

Our Practice Director will provide you with a document on request called a "superbill," which is like an invoice but contains the service codes, dates of treatment, and monies paid during therapy. You would submit this to your plan directly, and your plan would reimburse you directly.

HOW ARE MY RECORDS STORED?

We utilize a HIPAA-compliant, encrypted, electronic medical record called TherapyAppointment that holds all of my clients' mental health records safely in it. You will get a link to a client portal where you fill in demographic information and can access your paperwork and scheduling. You can aslo find the portal login on our website.

DO YOU HAVE A CANCELATION POLICY?

I have a 24-business-hour cancelation policy. You will be responsible for an entire session fee if the change is made in less than 24-business-hours' notice. Exceptions may be made for emergencies—such as sudden illness or accident—at my discretion. It should be noted that insurance does not reimburse for canceled sessions, and HSA and FSA cards can't be used in these cases.
