The Therapeutic Process
Sessions are individualized and tailored to your chosen goals and needs.
The steps are as follows:
Free 15-minute consultation: introduction, brief discussion of goals/needs, review of granted access and approval procedure.
*Remember, the necessary element to an effective treatment process is your relationship with your therapist—this is an opportunity to consider if I can be a good fit for you at this time.Intake completion: review of consents and forms, submission of paperwork and medical documentation, and access to the client portal.
Scheduling first session: 53-60 minute initial session to gather information on your background and story of what led you here now for the Initial Evaluation, also known as the “Biopsychosocial Assessment.”

Out of Network Insurances — accepted with a credit card on file. A receipt, called a “Superbill,” can be provided per each appointment. This receipt may be presented to your insurance for reimbursement purposes for your appointments.
Private Pay Services — my rate is $150 per Individual Therapy Session. There is limited availability for patients requesting sliding scale rates.
*Please note: if you do plan to utilize insurance, it is strongly recommended to check with your insurance company beforehand to confirm coverage of therapy services, any deductible requirements, possible copays/coinsurances, limits and/or access to services (some of my patients have been eligible to receive two individual sessions weekly).
Cancellation Policy
Due to high demand and limited availability, patients are responsible for their scheduling, attendance, and timely communication. The standard policy calls for a minimum of 24 hour notice, since the appointment time is otherwise lost. No shows, misses, cancellations, lateness (15 minute given grace period) are considered absences. Special case scenarios, i.e. emergencies, are taken into consideration. The cancellation fee is $150.
Advanced notice (ahead of the 24 hour period) for any requests for changes in scheduling will work most favorably—via HIPAA compliant email at adnanmunshi@amazepsychotherapy.com.
*Please note 24 hours is also required for rescheduling.
