Frequently Asked Questions
How do I begin services?
You can contact me directly via email (joeb@enlightenedmindllc.com) to schedule your FREE 20 minute consultation, or you can call me at 973-358-5379.
Also, you can reach me via the contact tab at the top of this webpage!
Do you offer Telehealth or In-Person Services?
I offer tele-health through a HIPAA regulated video meeting platform called Simple Practice.
I also offer in person services in Boonton, NJ. If you use Apple Maps the address is 550 Elcock Ave, Boonton, NJ. If you use Waze or Google Maps the address is 550 W Main Street, Boonton, NJ.
Do you accept insurance?
I do! I am in-network with Horizon BCBS, Aetna, and Cigna, United Healthcare, Oscar Health and Oxford.
What if I don’t have insurance?
I will happily still provide for you! I would charge you $130.00 per session out of pocket. If you have out-of-network coverage with an insurance that I do not work with then I will submit an out-of-network claim for you! Typically my clients with OON coverage receive reimbursement within 2-3 weeks of each session, and most clients get between 60-80% of the session cost back.
Which therapy approach do you rely on?
Typically in treatment I rely on DBT, CBT, and Existential Therapy. When providing trauma treatment I engage in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and ERP (Exposure Response Prevention).
I would describe myself as an “eclectic therapist” meaning that I find it necessary to adapt my approach to each client’s individual needs/desires.
What does the 20-minute consultation look like?
Typically I prefer to meet for our consultation virtually as it helps client’s determine whether or not they feel comfortable. I will, however, happily hold our consultation meeting via phone call.
The consultation generally consists of information gathering, a review of fees/insurance and practice policies, and most importantly the opportunity to determine if we are a good match!
