Frequently Asked Questions
What are the steps I need to take to begin psychotherapy with Conscious Connections if I want to use my insurance?
First you call the main line and talk to the receptionist Gizelle. If she doesn't answer, you leave a voicemail with your name and phone number. When you talk to her, she will guide you to create an account on our HIPAA compliant system called Theraplatform, so that you can submit your insurance verification safely. After your benefits are verified and explained to you, and you fill out your consent forms and intake paperwork online, you are matched with a therapist and they will contact you to set up your first appointment.
How long will it take after my first phone call to begin therapy?
On average it takes about a week to two weeks, depending on how quickly you are able to supply your insurance information for verification and be matched with a therapist
