Please Read Important Information in its entirety before reaching out. 

Hello-

Thank you for considering Doors Of Growth to meet your therapeutic needs. I am very grateful for the opportunity to serve you, and for each one of my clients, past, present and future.   

At this time I am not accepting new clients  Please check back in May 2021.  Please accept my sincere apology for not being able to respond to you personally.

Insurance/Payment:Insurance/Payment:
A few things to note: I am an Out Of Network (OON) provider.  I do not accept any insurance, nor do I offer a sliding fee scale.  If you have a PPO, your insurance may, depending on your plan and deductible, reimburse you for a portion or all of session costs. My session cost is $130.00 per therapeutic hour (55 minutes) payable at start of session. 
I accept cash, credit card (except American Express) and FSA/HSA.  I then give you a superbill to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement (you may be reimbursed only if you have Out Of Network Benefits). Please call your insurance to confirm what these are.  Generally those with PPO on their insurance card have OON benefits but reimbursement rates and deductibles vary.  If you are a state worker, you typically have $100-$300 deductible and are then reimbursed at  70-80%.  Again, please call and confirm with your insurance company.

 

Intake Session:
The Intake session is an opportunity for you and I both to decide if my counseling is the best fit for you.  If either you or I deem that it is not, I am more than happy to provide referrals to other therapists.  It is important to me that you get the care that is most helpful and conducive to your well-being. Sometimes my counseling style is not the right fit and that is ok.  If this is the case, I would just like to help you find the best fit, as I fully believe in the transformative powers of good quality therapy.

Intake Paperwork:
Please make sure to email (dog@doorsofgrowth.com), fax ((609) 939-0510) or drop off intake paperwork two business days before intake appointment.  If I do not receive intake paperwork two business days before intake appointment, then unfortunately as a natural consequence of your delay, I will be forced to cancel the intake appointment and offer it to next person on waiting list.  Intake paperwork must be received two business days before intake appointment in order to have intake session.

Cancellation Policy:
It is also important to note that I do require 24 hours notice for cancellation of appointments.  If you do not give 24 hours notice, or are a no call/no show for your intake appointment, please know you have taken up a slot that somebody else could've used to get the help they want. In order to reschedule a missed intake appointment, if 24 hours notice is not given or a no/call no show occurs, I will require advanced non-refundable payment to reschedule intake appointment, as well as payment for missed intake.

ADDRESS:
If you put Doors Of Growth into your GPS it will take you right to the office. Address is 105 Market Place, Glassboro NJ.  Please park in main parking lot and take ramp up to Double Brown Doors labeled Suites 1-8.  Please head back to Suite 4 (waiting room) and help your self to coffee, tea, and snacks. (Come in turn to the left, past the conference table and straight down the hallway to Suite 4.) I will most likely be in session and unable to come out and greet you or answer the phone prior to your arrival.

COVID: 
Please do not come to your appointment if you are sick, running a fever or have had contact with anyone who has tested positive for COVID.
Please wear your mask into the office building and until you get to the waiting room.  You will be the only person in there, so please feel free to take mask off or keep it on, whatever you are most comfortable with. Upon completion of appointment please put mask back on to exit building.
There is hand sanitizer in both the waiting room and my office. Should you use a pen in the waiting room, please do not put back in container but rather please take it with you.

Release Of Information (ROI):
Please know, if you are writing to me about a loved one in treatment and there is no signed Release Of Information on file, I cannot respond, call, confirm or deny that I have a client by that name.  Thank you for respecting your loved ones right to confidentiality. 
 
Loved One’s Safety/Confidentiality:
Please note: In sharing information or contacting this therapist, please keep in mind that I do not keep secrets from my clients and they will be informed that you reached out to me. They will also be privy to whatever information you share with me. Thank you for understanding as it would be a HIPAA violation for me to communicate with anyone without a Release Of Information.  If you are worried about a loved one's safety, you need to call 911 and/or transport them to the nearest emergency room.  

I look forward to potentially building a supportive therapeutic relationship. 

I hope you are taking the day moment by moment-

Respectfully,

Kristina Ogilvie MA., LCADC, LPC.
