Frequently Asked Questions

  • Therapy can benefit anyone who feels they need support, whether facing specific challenges or simply wanting personal growth. An initial consultation can help determine if my approach is a good fit for you.

  • Getting started is easy. You can book an initial phone consultation through this website or reach out directly via phone or email. A consultation lasts 15-20 minutes, is free of charge and provides us an opportunity to begin discussing what you want to focus on in therapy and determine whether I would be a good fit in helping you to achieve your goals.

  • I do not accept insurance directly. However, I will provide you with a detailed monthly invoice that you can submit to your insurance provider for potential out-of-network reimbursement. I recommend contacting your insurance company to understand your mental health coverage and reimbursement options. 

  • My approach draws heavily from psychodynamic theory, harm reduction, motivational interviewing, cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapy and is tailored to meet the unique needs of each client.

  • In your first session, we’ll get to know each other, discuss your reasons for seeking therapy, and outline some potential goals. 

  • If possible, I will make every effort to reschedule cancelled appointments within the same week. I ask that you notify me about a cancelled session at least 24 hours in advance, or you will be expected to pay the full cost of the session.

  • Yes, I offer virtual sessions via secure video conferencing. This allows you to attend therapy from the comfort of your home or wherever you have privacy.
