Frequently Asked Questions

How many sessions does it take to get results?

 

Each situation is different. Some clients see results in one session while others need five or six. In the cases of severe trauma longer treatment may be needed.

 

 

How long is a session?

 

A typical session is about 50 minutes. Intake sessions may be a few minutes longer.

 

 

What insurance do you take?

 

I take reimbursement from several large insurance companies either directly or through their mental health plan. Consult your insurance web page to determine if I am a provider.  Private pay fees fall within the typical range for this area.

 

 

Will Dr. Atchison tell my friends or family that I'm coming to counseling?

 

No information is released without a signed authorization except in case of life threatening emergencies.

 

 

How do you work with so many difficult situations?

 

I try to keep a balance in my life by going to church, the gym, and creating a sense of happiness. I participate in a monthly peer support group and surround myself with friends and family. This firm foundation helps me stay balanced.
