What can I expect from therapy?

The first few sessions consist of getting to know one another at your own pace. I work to collect all the “intake” information that will be beneficial to your overall treatment plan. If it works for you and your schedule, I recommend that the first few sessions are once a week. The sessions can continue on a weekly basis or move to every other week, once a month, as needed, what ever is right for you.

Do you take Insurance?

No, I do not take insurance. However, I am happy to provide a receipt or superbill for you to submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement. Many insurance companies will reimburse up to 60%. I encourage all clients to explore their out-of-network benefits within their individual policies. I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement, but please note that the client is responsible for full payment prior to each session.

Please know that by requesting a superbill, insurance will require me to put a diagnosis on your medical record. I recommend calling your insurance and asking the following:

• Do I have out-of-network mental health benefits? If so, what percentage will be reimbursed to me?

• What is my deductible for out-of-network coverage and has it been met?

You may also use a HSA/FSA to pay for your sessions.

What is the expected length and frequency of therapy?

Everyone’s experience is different. Some view therapy as self-care, continuing weekly sessions on a consistent basis. Others are seeking help with a particular issue in which may start with weekly sessions and ultimately move to biweekly, monthly, and so forth. Therapy is meant to be what you need it to be. If it is no longer serving you, this is something to bring up in your sessions.

For all new clients, I recommend meeting on a weekly basis for at least the first 3 sessions if available. This allows us to build rapport and get to know one another in a more efficient manner.

What if we are not a good fit?

Not every therapist will or should be the perfect fit for you. If it’s not me, that is more than okay and I hope to get you one step closer to the right therapist for you. I am more than happy to provide referrals to other providers. This is also why I require all new clients to complete a free 15 minute consultation call. It allows us to decipher if we will be a good fit prior to even starting therapy.

What is the cancellation policy?

If you cancel less than 48 hours of our appointment time, I charge my full session fee. This allows for those on my waitlist for the same time slot to plan accordingly. You can cancel an appointment by sending me a text (713-701-7832) or email (lindseymannontherapy@gmail.com).

What if I’m running late?

If you’re running late, I ask that you let me know prior to your session start. If I do not receive any notice within the first 15 minutes of your session start time, I consider the session cancelled.

The session is also cancelled when there is less than 30 minutes left of your time, as this does not allow for enough time to complete a therapeutic session.

How do I get started? What’s a consultation call?

Call or submit a request to schedule a consultation call. This can be done here on my website under “consultation” or by contacting me via email (lindseymannontherapy@gmail.com) or text message (713-701-7832). If we seem to be a good fit, I will send you a small amount of paperwork to complete and set up your first appointment.
