I provide a complementary 15-minute phone consultation so we can discuss your particular goals and challenges so we can decide on what might be the best fit for you. If I provide a service that will be helpful for you and in alignment with what you need, we will figure out a time to collaborate. If I don’t offer what you need, I will try to help you find someone that does.

During the first session, we will be covering a lot, and I will ask a lot more questions than I normally will in a regular session! We will talk about what is going on in your life currently, as well as begin to talk about your history. We will also talk about what your goals are for therapy.

For individual therapy, we usually take the first 2 or 3 sessions to do a full intake assessment where we go into detail about your history and formulate a treatment plan together. For family and couples therapy, after the first meeting with everyone together, I will meet with each family member individually for a session to take their history. Once I have completed this, we reconvene, and I will provide feedback, and we will set treatment goals together. This process can take a few weeks.

This depends on your situation, needs, and goals. Sometimes I do short term work that lasts a few months or less. More often, a longer process of therapy is necessary to reach your desired goals. If you have questions about treatment length, I will do my best to give you an honest estimate once we've completed the initial assessment.

Weekly sessions are most common and often recommended when starting therapy. Sometimes biweekly sessions are necessary or a better fit for your needs. We will discuss this together to determine what is best.

Therapists are people too, and finding one that is a good “match” is an important part of the work. Feeling comfortable with and trusting your therapist are both vital to a good relationship. If something that I’m doing isn’t working for you, I am more than happy to hear your thoughts and trying a different approach. If that doesn’t help, and if it feels like we aren’t a good match for whatever reason, I will try to find you someone who is!

I do not participate with any insurance plans. However, you may have “out-of-network” benefits through your insurance company. These benefits will usually cover a portion of my fees. I can provide you with a “superbill” that you will need to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Because I am not contracted with insurance, I can provide services in the most flexible way possible, as we are not constrained by the mandates of an insurance company.

Yes, I ask for 24-hours notice if you need to cancel a session. This allows me enough time to offer the spot to another client who may need it.

My fee for a missed session or late cancellation is the full session rate if we can’t find another time to meet in the same week. Keep in mind that my availability is limited, and I may not be able to put you in a new time slot in the same week.
