Joel is not a licensed Counselor, but has over 36 years of experience in reflective listening, pastoral counseling, and problem-solving. Joel is a certified Life Coach and has had 40+ hours of training in CBT, DBT, Anxiety, Stress, and Anger Management.
Counseling Sessions are at a non-insurance status which means that you will pay for the session(s) and then you can decide to submit it to your insurance and see if they will cover any part. Your payment is linked through a secure Credit Card process. This is helpful for you in a couple of distinct ways:
You can get your counseling scheduled and paid for right away.
You can pay your total amount of Counseling at a pace that you can afford monthly as established by your credit card arrangements.
You will receive by email, an invoice for each payment received. This will help you with your financial records and should you decide to submit this to your insurance.
You can check out some training and counseling videos that Joel provides through his Youtube channel (click this link).
Counseling Process begins with your first session free! This is where a lot of information is gathered and presented by you to Joel regarding where you are currently finding yourself in order to move forward. Next, you will be able to choose if you want to schedule and pay for sessions separately, in a package of 4 Session (saving 10% off each session), or an 8 Session package at a discount too.
It's important to remember that getting unstuck, lowering emotional turmoil, and changing thoughts and behaviors takes concentrated and cooperative work with your counselor/life coach. Therefore, Joel has set up packages to save you some money and enhance your commitment to stay with the process so you can move forward and live life without further counseling / coaching.
