Common Questions
How long does therapy take?
It totally depends on your goals for therapy. My intention is to help you achieve your goals as efficiently and effectively as possible.
What is your fee and do you take insurance?
My usual fee is $230 for a 50 minute session. Like most NYC providers, I do not accept in-network insurance benefits. However, if you have out-of-network coverage, the fee should be partially covered. For more information on insurance, please see the Fees and Insurance page.
Therapy hasn't helped in the past. How will this be different?
First, I'm sorry that you have been frustrated by therapy in the past. In our consultation, we will discuss what hasn't worked to make sure that we are a fit. And during our work, we will face obstacles head on and get underneath what is blocking the therapy.
How often do we meet and how long are sessions?
Sessions are 50 minutes long and my expectation is that we will meet weekly (outside of vacations and the occasional need to cancel.) I find that this cadence is best for accomplishing peoples' goals. I'm happy to try to reschedule a session during the same week.
How do I book an appointment?
Typically, we set up a 20 minute free Zoom consultation (although phone works too) so that I can get an idea of what you are looking for and you can get a feel for me and how I work. Just fill out the contact form or email me directly at annehellertherapy@gmail.com
