FAQ

Questions people ask before reaching out

Starting therapy comes with practical questions. Here are the ones Anne hears most. If yours isn't here, just ask.

Who does Anne work with?

Teens and adults, in individual counseling. Anne specializes in affirming care for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent people and in trauma-informed work, and she sees people for anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, chronic illness, and more. See the full list above.

Can I meet in person or online?

Both. Anne sees clients in person at her office at 10683 South Saginaw Street, Suite B, in Grand Blanc, and by secure telehealth anywhere in Michigan.

Do you take my insurance?

Anne is in network with most major plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Blue Care Network, Medicaid, Medicare, Priority Health, and UnitedHealthcare. She is not in network with Cigna. Please call your insurance before your first session to confirm your mental health benefits. See the full list.

What does it cost without insurance?

The self-pay rate is $200 per 50-minute session. If you have out-of-network benefits, Anne can give you a superbill to submit to your insurance. You also have the right to a Good Faith Estimate of your costs. See fees and payment options.

Do I have to talk about my trauma?

No. Anne never asks you to retell your trauma. You decide what you share and when, and plenty of meaningful work happens without going through the details.

Do you write letters for gender-affirming care?

Yes. Anne writes letters for gender-affirming medical care through a supportive, informed, and respectful process. Reach out to talk through what your provider needs.

Is everything I share confidential?

Yes, with a few exceptions required by law, such as a serious risk of harm to yourself or someone else, or suspected abuse of a child or vulnerable adult. Anne goes over these at the start so there are no surprises.

Will Khufu be in my session?

Only if you want him there. Sphynx cats are not hypoallergenic, so if you have allergies or would just rather not, tell Anne and Khufu will nap elsewhere. Meet Khufu.

How do I get started?

Call or text (810) 246-1948 or email Anne. Keep your first message brief: your name, the best way to reach you, and whether you are looking for therapy or supervision. Anne will get back to you to set up a first conversation. Contact details.

What if I'm in crisis?

This practice can't respond to emergencies. Call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline any time, or call 911.
