Question 1

Hours and Location

Accepted Answer

I am physically located in New Orleans, Louisiana. Louisiana residents can receive therapy in-person or virtually. Florida residents can receive therapy virtually.  I am available virtually Monday-Thursday from 9-4 pm. I am in-person at my office (Spyre Center, 1772 Prytania St.) on Mondays and Tuesdays.

Question 2

Payment & Insurance

Accepted Answer

50 minute sessions for individuals are $225.
80 minute sessions for couples and/or individuals are $300.

**I do not accept insurance, communicate with insurance companies, or complete insurance paperwork. This means it is your sole responsibility as the client to pay in full at time of our scheduled appointment. All clients are expected to provide method of payment which will be kept on file and will automatically be charged after scheduled session (usually between the hours of 12am-2am).

**I provide Superbills to clients upon request. It is not guaranteed that your insurance will accept Superbills or that you will receive reimbursement from them for our sessions. It is your responsibility as the client to communicate with your insurance company about out-of-network benefits or utilize a third party like Thrizer (www.thrizer.com)to handle the claims and reimbursement process for you.

Question 3

Consistency & Commitment Policy

Accepted Answer

I have a strict Consistency and Commitment/48-Hour Reschedule policy. This means if you are unable to attend a scheduled session and do not reschedule it, you are still financially responsible for the session cost and will be charged regardless of whether or not you attend the scheduled session.

This policy is mutually beneficial in that it a) strongly encourages you as the client to maintain your therapy appointments as a consistent priority in your life schedule and helps holds you accountable to do so, and b) allows me as the professional to more effectively anticipate my income and schedule and plan my life accordingly.

You are able to reschedule appointments as often as needed via the online Client Portal, provided you do not consistently engage in a pattern of rescheduling that impedes our ability to effectively engage in the therapeutic process. You can request a new appointment up to 48 hours before your originally scheduled appointment, and you will have access to my calendar availability up to 2 weeks into the future.

*Please note it is not guaranteed there will be an appointment time available for reschedule - appointments are booked on a first come, first serve basis.

Question 5

What is your therapeutic style? What kind of techniques can I expect to be used?

Accepted Answer

Therapeutic Style: My therapeutic style is very Humanistic: it focuses on self-discovery, empowerment, and finding meaning. Sessions are unstructured, my number one goal is to meet the client (that's you!) where they're at. It's really important to me that you set the pace and direction, I'll follow your lead. I truly believe my clients are the experts in their own lives, I'm someone with lots of training on how to help you apply the innate knowledge and skills you already have.

I love this way of doing therapy because it teaches you the tools for a lifetime. We might be talking about fighting with your coworker- but the lessons you pick up from that interaction will apply everywhere.

Techniques: I have quite the toolbox for techniques! Most often I'm using a mix of psychodynamic theory to explore how we got here, Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT) to shift unhelpful thoughts, and Somatic Theory to help regulate our bodies so we can stay present to deal with the tough stuff. My technique blends top-down (brain-led) as well as bottom-up (body-led) to create whole body healing. I also like to use Inner Child/Parts work, Coaching, and Energetic Principles as well.

Question 6

Do I have to identify as female?

Accepted Answer

Nope! I have specialized training in working with women and people who identify as femmes, however I can provide services to anybody regardless of gender identity or expression.

Question 7

How long will I be in therapy?

Accepted Answer

I require a 6 month commitment with either one of the following options:
Weekly 50 or 80 minute sessions.
Biweekly 80 minute sessions.

My style of therapy is highly relational and requires consistency to change your life! If you want something you've never had, it's time to do something you've never done.

If you struggle with putting the needs of others before your own- the act of setting aside time each week just for you is progress all in itself.

*Side note*: If you're already in therapy and are looking for a sex therapist to work on a specific issue with, you are eligible for more spaced out appointments on a case by case basis. Reach out today to learn more!

Question 8

Do you run groups?

Accepted Answer

Yes I do!

Currently, I co-facilitate a once/month Sex Worker Support Group (the only one in NOLA). Check out the link under the "Services" tab for more information.

To stay up to date on upcoming groups and workshops, be sure to join my newsletter!

Question 9

How do I get started?

Accepted Answer

Book a free 20 minute consultation!(https://eleanor-hamilton-wohl.clientsecure.me)

A credit card is required to hold your consultation time. As long as you attend the consultation or cancel outside of the 48-hour window, you will not be charged.

If you "no-show" or late cancel your consultation, you will be charged a fee of $9.99.

Even if you come to the consultation and decide I'm not the right fit, that's totally fine! You still won't be charged.
