Whether it’s your first time seeking therapy or not, it can feel like a nerve-wracking process.

Here at Mindful Mental Health Counseling, we take the time and effort to learn about you. From there, we can create a personalized treatment plan that works for your life.

Initial Intake Session

During this first session, we will explore your background and explore the factors that led to you seeking therapy. We will also outline what you hope to accomplish through treatment to ensure we have a full understanding of your goals.

Individualized Treatment

Following our intake session, we will create a treatment unique to your specific needs, using the following tools and techniques from the following therapy practices:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)

/ Individual Therapy Sessions

We will meet for 50-minute sessions to dive into treatment. The total number of therapy sessions is dependent upon each individual. 

Questions About Therapy Services for Anxiety in NJ

Before scheduling a full-length 50-minute intake session, we offer free 15-minute introductory calls with all potential new clients. During this call, we’ll discuss why you’re seeking therapy, and I’ll share logistical information about rates, insurance, and scheduling.

Prior to the initial 50-minute intake session, you’ll complete the practice’s intake paperwork. The first session is intended for us to get to know each other and talk about what you’d like to accomplish in therapy. We’ll ask you questions about your background, your mental health history, what current problems you’re facing, and what you want out of therapy.

If we’re a good fit, we will create an individualized treatment plan that is unique to you and your specific needs, using tools and techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness.

All individual therapy sessions are 50-minutes.

We meet with most clients on a weekly basis. We ask that new clients commit to weekly sessions at the start of treatment, and depending on how things progress over time, we may recommend that we increase or decrease the frequency of sessions to best meet your needs.

Currently, we offer online sessions only.

Online therapy is delivered via a secure video platform. Online therapy provides all of the benefits of traditional therapy in addition to flexible scheduling and the convenience of participating in sessions from home.

50-minute individual therapy sessions, including intake sessions, are $250, and 90-minute group therapy sessions are $80.

Mindful Mental Health Counseling is out-of-network with insurance. Private pay is a great option for people who want maximum privacy, confidentiality, and flexibility.

If you do not opt for private pay, you may also be eligible to use out-of-network benefits in order to receive reimbursement for sessions. Often, out-of-network benefits cover anywhere from 70-80% of the full session fee. Check with your insurance company directly to ask about out-of-network benefits.

  • Do I have out-of-network benefits for outpatient mental health services?
  • What is my out-of-network deductible?
  • How much of my deductible has been met this year?
  • How much will I be reimbursed for a 45-minute psychotherapy session (CPT code: 90834)?
  • How do I submit claim forms for reimbursement?

If you plan to utilize out-of-network benefits, we will provide you with a monthly invoice to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

Yes. If you are unable to pay the full session fee and do not have out-of-network benefits, please contact us to discuss a sliding scale rate. We reserve a limited number of sliding scale spots for new clients.

If the sliding scale rate is still not within your budget, we can refer you to other local providers in the area.

24 hours notice is required for all cancellations. Otherwise, you will be charged for the full fee for the canceled or missed session.

At Mindful Mental Health Counseling, we are licensed in New York and New Jersey. Clients must live in either New York or New Jersey to work with our team.
