Frequently Asked Questions

Do you accept insurance?

Internal Freedom LLC is a private-pay practice however, if you are located in NJ, I accept insurance through the Headway platform. If located in NY or you are out of network you pay directly for each session at $150. Many clients find that private pay gives them more privacy, flexibility, and a deeper therapeutic relationship free from insurance restrictions. I provide monthly superbills so you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement many plans cover 50–80% of the session cost.

What is nervous system regulation therapy?

Nervous system regulation therapy helps you understand and work with your body's automatic stress responses the fight, flight, freeze, or fawn states that keep many of us stuck in survival mode. Using somatic, polyvagal-informed, and mindfulness-based approaches, we build your capacity to feel safe, present, and grounded in your own body and life.

What does a typical session look like?

Sessions are 55 minutes via secure video. We move at your pace. Some sessions are more conversational; others involve somatic exercises, grounding practices, or parts work. There's no one-size-fits-all here the work unfolds based on what your nervous system needs that day.

Do I have to be in NY or NJ to work with you?

Yes , telehealth licensing laws require that you be physically located in New York or New Jersey at the time of each session. I am currently licensed in both states. If you're located elsewhere, I'm happy to recommend resources.

How do I get started?

The first step is a free 15-minute consultation call. This gives us a chance to meet, for you to share what you're looking for, and for me to share how I work so we can both feel good about moving forward. No pressure, no commitment.

What if I've tried therapy before and it didn't help?

You're not alone in that experience. Talk therapy alone doesn't work for everyone, especially when unresolved stress or trauma lives in the body. A somatic and nervous system-focused approach works differently and for many people, it's the missing piece. Our free consult is a great way to explore whether this feels like a different kind of fit.
