Services & Fees

Initial Consultation

The initial consultation is an opportunity to meet and see if we would be a good match. You will have the opportunity to ask me any questions you may have, and what you can expect if you choose to work with me. 

If you are unsure about what kind of somatic work (therapy, adjunct therapy, coaching) would be best suited for you, we can discuss your unique situation, your needs, and what you would like to get out of our work together. 

Free

15-20 minutes

Therapy

I offer traditional talk therapy, and weave Somatic Experiencing into our work based on the client’s needs and requests. We can work in person at my office in Asheville, NC, or via telehealth. 

$150

50 minute session

$225

80 minute session

Adjunct Therapy

In addition to traditional therapy, I offer Somatic Experiencing adjunct therapy. This means that you have a primary therapist, and you meet with me separately to receive additional support to complement the work you're already doing.  

Adjunct therapy is especially helpful if:

  • You want a body based approach to address the impact of specific traumatic events.

  • You could benefit from somatic skills for self regulation in order to do the hard work of healing and growing through therapy. Therapy is hard work!

  • You are feeling stuck with specific issues in talk therapy and would like a different, complementary approach to addressing these, without interrupting work with your primary therapist. 

  • You are ready for a greater sense of awareness and choice when it comes to your nervous system states and responses. 

 I am available to collaborate with your therapist on your treatment goals.

Coaching

Somatic Experiencing coaching has a narrower focus than traditional therapy and adjunct therapy work. SE coaching centers education, skill building, and practice. It is appropriate for folks who are not experiencing significant struggles with their mental health. SE coaching can be particularly supportive when folks have had a recent overwhelming experience, or when they want an effective set of tools for living in their body in a way that feels more supportive and sustainable.  By learning the language of our body and our nervous system, we can also expand our capacity to cultivate safety, orient to pleasure, and more meaningfully make room for our full experience. Coaching clients will be working with me under the umbrella of Quynza Coaching LLC.

Sliding scale

Sliding Scale

I believe in community care, and it is important to me to make my services as accessible as possible to my community. For this reason I offer a limited number of sliding scale fee spots for clients who have difficulty affording my full fee. I can work with clients to find a fee that is financially accessible depending on the availability of reduced fee spots in my caseload. The sliding scale fee starts at $50 per session.

If you cannot afford my full fee, please ask about my Sliding Scale Fee slots. Be aware that there is currently a waitlist for these slots. Reach out if you'd like to get on the waitlist.

Do I take insurance?

I do not accept insurance at this time, but if you have Out Of Network (OON) benefits through your insurer I can help you get reimbursed. I work with a platform named Thrizer, which can help you access OON benefits. Thrizer will automatically submit a claim after every session, and once your deductible is met you can expect a reimbursement of 50-80% for every appointment; reimbursements are deposited directly into your bank account. Thrizer will work with you to help you understand your benefits and what to expect. For more information, you can visit https://www.thrizer.com/.

Do you have a client working through trauma, or the impact of a traumatic event? 

 

Are you and/or your client feeling stuck? Do you suspect that a different, complementary modality may help your client break through?

 

Do you suspect that a greater capacity to be with their present moment experience and tolerate distress could support your client as they work towards their therapeutic goals with you?

 

Your client may benefit from somatic skill building and practice through Somatic Experiencing adjunct therapy!

 

Somatic Experiencing adjunct therapy can offer additional support to you and your clients by complementing your ongoing therapeutic work. 

 

SE adjunct therapy can help clients build present moment awareness and improve distress tolerance. 

 

Through SE adjunct therapy clients can develop a more compassionate understanding of their nervous system responses, as well as how these responses relate to their emotions and behaviors. 

 

Your clients may experience a greater capacity for self-regulation, and a more flexible relationship to nervous system states. 

 

SE adjunct therapy can also support trauma healing work by gently unwinding incomplete responses to overwhelming events. 

 

SE adjunct therapy can help clients address and prevent burnout by developing greater self-awareness and practical tools for stress management. 

 

Somatic Experiencing adjunct therapy is not meant to replace or interrupt your ongoing therapy work with your client. It is meant to complement the important work you are already doing together, without interrupting it. 

 

I can provide flexible scheduling for Somatic Experiencing adjunct therapy. While traditional therapy is most effective when consistent, SE adjunct therapy can be effective even when meeting less frequently.

How Adjunct Therapy

can help your clients

Join me for a free weekly peer consultation group for BIPOC therapists. This affinity space is designed for us to meet and connect, for processing the unique experiences of being a person of color in the field, and for peer case consults. Most of the therapists who join center social justice and anti-oppression work, and we often talk about the impact of systemic oppression on our clients and on ourselves.

We meet Fridays 10-11am, virtually. 

 

To join and get on our BIPOC referral list, send me an email at diana@condorcounseling.com

Good Faith Estimates

The No Surprises Act

Effective January 1, 2022, health care providers need to provide clients who are not using insurance an estimate of cost they can reasonably expect to pay for the care and services that will be provided.  The Good Faith Estimate (GFE) is the expected cost of any non-emergency items or services, and does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. You may accrue additional charges if complications or exceptional circumstances occur. The final cost of services may be higher. If you receive a bill at least $400 more than your GFE, you may dispute or appeal the bill.

You may contact the health care provider or facility listed to let them know the billed charges are higher than the GFE. You may ask them to update the bill to match the GFE, negotiate the bill, or ask if financial assistance is available. 

 

You may also start a dispute resolution process with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). If you choose to use the dispute resolution process, you must start the dispute process within 120 calendar days (about four months) of the date on the original bill. 

 

There is a $25 fee to use the dispute process. If the agency reviewing your dispute agrees with you, you will have to pay the price on this GFE. If the agency disagrees with you and agrees with the health care provider or facility, you will have to pay the higher amount. 

 

The Good Faith Estimate is not a contract, which means you are not required to obtain the items or services listed in the Good Faith Estimate.

​​

To learn more about disputes and get a form to start the process, go to www.cms.gov/nosurprises  or call 1-800-985-3059.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate or the dispute process, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises  or call 1-800-985-3059.
