What to expect

My hope is that in counseling, you feel safe, heard, and understood.  Therapy is intended to give you the healing tools and confidence to move forward in your life.  
What may start out as a strange experience (especially if you’re new!) of sharing your internal thoughts and feelings with someone new, will shortly turn into a comfortable place that you look forward to visiting each week. Counseling will allow you to safely unpack life’s puzzle pieces and feel partnered with to put them back together in a healthy and healing way.

phone consultation

It is important to get to know each other over the phone before we meet in person. Typically, a 15 minute phone consultation will let us introduce ourselves and allow me to hear a bit more about why you or your child is interested in counseling. We will schedule from there if it feels like a good fit.

Initial Appointment

Our first appointment, whether me meet in person or online, is always a whirlwind! It’s a chance to get to know one another better, to help me gain a better understanding of what has brought you to counseling, and for us to create initial goals to work towards together. We will meet for 50 minutes, unless we need more time, in which case it will be 80 minutes.

From There

We will decide together what frequency of counseling works best for you. Each individual session lasts 50 minutes and extra time can be added if we feel it is necessary. Beyond that, we will determine how frequently (once or more/week, biweekly, monthly, etc) will be necessary for you or your child.

Payment and fees

Fees available upon request

This is considered a private pay practice. Payments are processed directly and confidentially through your client portal access or via an onsite card transaction. FSA and HSA is accepted.

Unfortunately, we do not accept insurance of any kind. We are, however, considered an Out of Network provider for many insurance companies and we are happy to provide a Super Bill invoice for you to submit for potential reimbursement.

We believe counseling should be affordable and accessible to all who need it. Sliding scale fees can be negotiated based on need and availability and will be provided by supervised Associates and interns. Inquire within.
