The First Steps
After we have talked and you have decided to move forward with the counseling process I will forward you the intake paperwork and consent to treat. These can be completed and emailed back to myself or brought in at the first session.
Session times:
I will provide you with times avaialble to meet and set you up so you will receive a text reminder for when you are scheduled
When you arrive at the office please wait in the lobby and I will come and get you when available.
If you are meeting online a link will be sent for you to join ad the time scheduled.
Sessions will generally run 50 minutes.
How do payments work?
Payments can be made by card, cash, check or Zelle. If by card there is a $3 fee included . Cards can also be saved for future use. Checks need to be made out to Grace and Peace Counseling, Zelle payment contact info is my email kevin@graceandpeacecounseling.org If you have any questions about the costs or are using a scholarship provided by work/church/etc please let me know before so we can set up the arrangement. Session rate is $150.
Expectations
If you are needing to cancel, reschedule or are running late please let me know as stated in the consent forms
Please be honest and transparent in sessions as to make this a productive useful time
Payments are made at the time of sessions and a receipt will be provided
