Frequently Asked Questions


Are you accepting new clients?

How does confidentiality work?

Your privacy and right to confidentiality is a top priority at Sunshine Counseling. Information you share in our sessions will be kept confidential unless you have given written permission and consent to share. We’ll cover the exceptions to confidentiality in detail in our first session.

The rate for a 55 minute counseling session is $175 for an individual and $200 for couples. Individual sessions can be billed to insurance while couples therapy is self-pay. There is some variance depending on your insurance provider and the type of session. A full fee schedule is available upon request. Payment is due at the time of your session and cash, credit card, HSA card, or check are accepted.

Do you offer referrals?

If I’m not the right fit for you or do not have the particular training or expertise to assist you, I will provide you with alternative referrals.
