Session Policies & FAQ's

​

Do you accept insurance?​

 

No, Karina is not a licensed professional counselor or social worker and therefore cannot bill insurance companies. She has a MA in East/West Psychology from Antioch University and has worked as a holistic therapist and IFS inspired coach since 2009. Karina can accept HSA payments, and works on a sliding scale for those in need of financial assistance.
 

​

How does your sliding-scale work?

​

For Private Sessions:
Most coaches of Karina's education and experience charge thousands of dollars up front. ​This sliding scale aims to create equitable access with the purchase of single sessions at a reduced rate. Please consider the amount that will allow you to value your investment in the work, and that you can commit to paying:
​

  • 2024 Sliding Scale Rates: $90-$150

  • Please confirm amount via email prior to scheduling

  • Sliding scale payments must be cash or via App Payment

​

For Sangha Healing Circles: 

​Sliding scale aims to create access for those seeking group support with limited finances. If the lowest amount of the three payment options is still not accessible, please email Karina.

​

​

How do I make a sliding scale payment?

​

  • If you are meeting in-person, cash is preferred.

  • Karina also accepts, Venmo, CashApp, and PayPal

  • Payment links and QR codes can be found under here (under Resources)
     

​

When is payment due?​

​

  • For virtual sessions, payment is due 48 hours before the appointment. This acts as confirmation of your session.

  • For in-person meetings, payment is due at the appointment.

  • Discount packages available for pre-payment.

 

​

Do pre-paid packages expire?

 

Yes. Karina cannot accept new clients until all outstanding packages are fulfilled, therefore packages cannot be left open ended. If you purchase a discount package of five individual sessions, they need to all be scheduled within six months. This work is most effective when consistent every 2-4 weeks.

​

​​

What do I need to do to prepare?

​

New Clients, please fill out the Intake & Consent Form. You may want to wear clothes you would be comfortable moving or lying down in, but this is not required. Have a notebook and pen available to take notes!

 

What is your Cancellation Policy?

​

Karina's livelihood depends on fulfilling scheduled appointments. Short notice cancellations result in lost wages. 
 

  • If you cancel an appointment within 48 hours, please make a donation to stay in good standing for rescheduling.

  • Most clients donate 50% of the session fee.

  • Donations can be made via Paypal, Venmo, or CashApp. 

  • Karina reserves the right to terminate service for those who do not honor this policy.
