Psychotherapy Services FAQs

I provide in-person and telehealth psychotherapy to adolescents (12+), teens, and adults, addressing a range of mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, gender identity, self-esteem, and life transitions. I ensure session confidentiality and offer transparent mental health fees for all clients.

I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to discuss your mental health needs and availability, and to determine if I am a good fit for you regarding telehealth psychotherapy. Please fill out the contact form or email me at laura@fantaccipsychotherapy.com to inquire about session confidentiality and mental health fees.

Each telehealth psychotherapy session typically lasts 50 minutes. During our first session, we’ll explore what brought you to therapy and begin setting goals while ensuring session confidentiality. Ongoing sessions focus on deepening insight, building coping strategies, and making progress toward your goals, all while discussing mental health fees.

Yes, your privacy is our top priority. All telehealth psychotherapy sessions are confidential, and your information is safeguarded by professional ethics and legal standards. However, there are exceptions related to safety concerns or legal obligations (e.g., situations involving danger to self or others, abuse). As for mental health fees, we ensure transparency throughout the process.

I do not accept insurance because insurance companies often dictate the number of sessions you are permitted and the types of therapy that are deemed acceptable. I believe that your mental health fees should reflect your personal needs rather than decisions made by an insurance representative. By not working with insurance, I can avoid spending hours on paperwork and battling for coverage. This approach also allows me to ensure session confidentiality and dedicate more time and energy to my clients, including those utilizing telehealth psychotherapy.

My standard fee for telehealth psychotherapy is $140 per 50-minute session. A limited number of sliding scale spots may be available based on financial need, so please feel free to ask about this during our consultation. Additionally, if you have out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for potential partial reimbursement, depending on your plan. Rest assured, session confidentiality is a priority throughout our work together.
