Frequently Asked Questions

My availability is flexible and is subject to change. When you contact me to make an appointment we will find a time that works best for you. I offer early-morning, evening, and weekend sessions if needed. 

You can book an appointment by e-mailing me at Laura@technicolorcounseling.com or calling me at 504-321-3562. I'll ask you a few questions to make sure we're a good fit and then we can schedule you for your first virtual appointment. 

At this time I do not take insurance. I offer reasonable rates and accept all major credit cards. 

Sessions last approximately 50 minutes. 

I am located in New Orleans, Louisiana however all of our sessions will be online via encrypted video chat. I am licensed to treat clients who reside in the state of Louisiana. 

Your privacy is extremely important to me,  I use a HIPAA-compliant video chat and health record system to ensure it. 

I am legally bound by confidentiality laws to keep what we talk about between us. The only time this may change is if you sign a release of information, I am subpoenaed by a judge, or I suspect you have a legitimate plan to hurt yourself or someone else. 

Sometimes between sessions I'll ask you to complete an assignment. However, this is not your typical homework. I will usually assign you an experience to have, and occasionally a writing assignment, reading, or worksheet. I create all of my assignments myself and they will ALWAYS be tailor-made to fit your needs. 

While I am well-educated about many of the common medications, I did not go to medical school and cannot prescribe you medication. However, I am happy to refer you to someone I trust who can, or help you find someone who takes your insurance.
