Therapy FAQs | EMDR & Trauma Therapy in Scottsdale, AZ | Loran Wallace, LPC

The first step is scheduling a free 20-minute consultation. You can schedule a time that works best for you directly on my calendar. From there we’ll connect, make sure we’re a good fit, and get your first appointment on the calendar.
Yes! I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation for all new clients. It’s a no-pressure conversation to see if we’re a good fit before you commit to anything.
The first session is an intake. I will ask a lot of questions to get a full picture of what’s bringing you in, your history, and what you’re hoping to get out of our work together. We’ll also start talking about goals and what our work might look like going forward. It’s normal to feel a little nervous - most people leave feeling relieved.

My office is located at 6609 N Scottsdale Rd, Suite G102, Scottsdale, AZ 85250. I also offer Telehealth to clients anywhere in Arizona and Texas.
Yes! I offer secure, HIPAA-compliant Telehealth sessions to clients located anywhere in Arizona and Texas. As long as you have a private space and a reliable internet connection, we can meet virtually.
I require 48 hours notice for cancellations or rescheduling for all sessions, including extended and intensive sessions.

Individual therapy sessions are $225 per 50-minute session. For EMDR, ART, and other trauma processing work, I recommend extended or intensive sessions, which are priced at $225/hour. For example, a 2-hour session is $450 and a 3-hour session is $675.
I am an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. However, depending on your plan, you may be eligible for reimbursement through your out-of-network benefits. You can use the benefits checker listed on the investments page to explore your personal out-of-network benefits.
A superbill is a detailed receipt of your sessions that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. I provide super bills upon request at the end of each month. Your insurance provider can tell you what percentage of out-of-network costs they cover.

I work on two tracks simultaneously - a day-to-day track focused on helping you function better right now, and a trauma track that goes back to the root of your patterns and does the deeper healing work. I use evidence-based and experiential approaches including, EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Post Induction Therapy, Parts Work and Inner Child Work, tailored specifically to you.
Standard sessions are 50 minutes. For EMDR and deeper trauma processing, I recommend extended sessions - these can be scheduled for 2, 3 or more hours depending on what’s needed, and are billed at $225/hour.
This varies a lot depending on what you’re working on and how you respond to treatment. Some clients reach their goals in a few months, others prefer ongoing support. We’ll talk about this in your first session and check in regularly to make sure our work together is moving in the right direction.
I primarily work with adults. I specialize in trauma, attachment, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem and addiction. If you’re unsure whether I’m the right fit for what you’re dealing with, the consultation is the best way to find out.
