How it works
To get started working together, here are some things to consider:
1 / Free Initial Consult: 15 minutes (optional)
Choosing the right therapist is an important step. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to help us determine if we’re the right fit to work together. During this call—whether by phone or video—we’ll briefly discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals, and any questions you may have about my approach. This is a no-pressure opportunity to see if my style and expertise align with your needs.
2 / Initial Consultations Appointments:
60 - 90 minutes
​
Some individuals come in with a clear idea of what they are looking for and others are less sure.
Together we can discuss various options and come up with a plan that works best for you.
Includes:
-
Psychological Intake & Evaluation
-
Treatment recommendations
3 / Follow Up/Ongoing Visits
45-50 minutes
​
Cadence and focus of follow up visits are determined by your customized treatment plan. Typically, once weekly therapy is recommended.
