What can I expect during our sessions? 

Expect a welcoming and non-judgmental atmosphere where you can come as you are and be your authentic self.

I view the counseling relationship as a collaborative relationship, with you (the client) having the ultimate power for change. I am there as a guide to assist you in navigating your path towards your ideal self.

Do you offer traditional therapy, such as telehealth or office-based therapy?

Trouvaille recognizes that non-traditional approaches may not always be preferred and offers traditional counseling as well, including office based and telehealth talk therapy.

What is non-traditional therapy?

Trouvaille aims to provide an alternative option to those who have difficulty in traditional counseling settings.

Trouvaille’s offers non-traditional therapy by way of a variety of outdoor therapeutic strategies such as Adventure Therapy, Walk and Talk Therapy, Equine Assisted Counseling, and Outdoor Mindfulness. Trouvaille also takes into consideration the mind-body connection and encourages behavioral activation throughout the therapeutic process.

What is the time commitment for therapy?

The overall time you spend in therapy is really up to you, but most people spend from 8 weeks to a few months in the process. 

Therapy sessions are 45 minutes long. If we meet for a longer period of time, we will discuss that ahead of time. 

Most people prefer to meet weekly or every other week, but we will be sure to find the rhythm that meets your needs the best.  

What types of clients do you see?

Trouvaille offers individual and group mental health services with a focus on building resilience in youth ( ages 13-17) and young adults (ages 18-25) to assist in managing and adapting to various adversities and life experiences to create a fulfilling future.

I work a lot of adolescents and adults struggling with adjustment and life transitions, emotional disturbances, and trauma and PTSD.

I work with children ages 8 and up.

How much does therapy cost?

My standard rate is $100; $120 for couples; and $125 for equine assisted counseling.

Although I do not accept insurance, I offer a sliding scale that is dependent on financial circumstance. If you cannot afford my standard rates, please contact me and we will discuss various options.

 What are my rights under Good Faith Estimate Law?

1. Under the No Surprises Act, clients who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage of the “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges for care.

2. Trouvaille will actively strive to provide this at or near the beginning of all new treatment programs for new clients. By law, you have the right to receive this information within 1 business day of your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider for an estimate before service. However, given that an intake session is required to identify the underlying therapeutic problems and thus provide a good faith estimate, this may be difficult to provide. We will of course do our best to provide what we can based on best practices. If extenuating circumstances cause us to forget, you have the right to remind us of this duty and we have the obligation to provide it to you. Please do not hesitate to reach out if there is a mistake and we will correct it promptly.

3. The “Good Faith Estimate” is an estimate of the total costs of the overall care. Due to the nuances and fluidity of therapy, this can be very difficult to project. Nevertheless, we will work to provide accurate estimates so that you can make an informed decision that is in your best interest.

4. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

5. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 or more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

6. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
