FAQs

The consultation is a brief, no-pressure call where I’ll share a bit about myself, my approach, and how my practice works. You’ll also have time to ask any questions that are important to you. If it feels like a good fit and you’d like to move forward, we can talk about scheduling your first session.

To get started, you can reach out via email or by submitting the contact form on the website. From there, we’ll begin email communication to discuss availability and schedule your first session.

Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance. Appointments cancelled within 24 hours of the scheduled time will be charged the full session fee. As a courtesy, clients are allowed one (1) cancellation within 24 hours of the scheduled session without incurring a cancellation fee. No-shows or missed appointments without prior notice will be charged the full session fee.

The fee for a standard 50-minute session is $110.

I do not accept insurance at this time.

Standard therapy sessions are 50 minutes in length. Longer sessions can be scheduled upon request and based upon availability.

The frequency of sessions is up to you and based on your needs and preferences. Some clients prefer to meet weekly, while others choose to meet every other week. We can discuss what works best for you and adjust as needed.

Your privacy is a top priority. All sessions, records, and communications are kept strictly confidential in accordance with professional ethics and HIPPA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) guidelines. I use a HIPPA-compliant platform for telehealth, scheduling, and billing to ensure your personal information is securely always protected.

To get the most out of your session, please find a private, quiet, and comfortable space where you can speak freely without interruptions. A strong consistent internet connection is important for telehealth sessions. Avoid distractions by turning off notifications and letting others know you’ll be unavailable. For your safety and confidentiality, do not attend sessions while driving or in public spaces.

Our first session is an intake session, where I'll gather a wide range of information to better understand your background, current concerns, and goals for therapy. It might feel like we’re moving quickly as we cover many topics, but don’t worry- after the intake, well slow down and take as much time as needed to explore anything in depth. I’ll also go over the forms you completed before our session and share more about my practice, so you know what to expect moving forward.

I use Ensora Health, a secure and HIPPA-compliant platform, for telehealth sessions, scheduling, billing, and note keeping. For Email communication, I use Proton Mail, which is also HIPPA compliant. While Proton Mail provides strong encryption, it’s generally recommended to keep confidential or sensitive information out of emails whenever possible to further protect your privacy.
