I am thinking about starting therapy but want to make sure my therapist is the right fit. How do I make that decision?

Feeling like your therapist is a good fit for you is an essential part of the therapeutic process. I offer one free 15-minute consultation to discuss treatment and determine if we are the right fit for each other. From there, you may determine whether you would like to set up your initial, 50-minute appointment, or seek other options for therapists. Ultimately, it is up to you to determine how your therapist can address your needs -- I am happy to answer any questions or address any concerns you may have to help you make your decision!

​I am interested in starting treatment with you! What are the next steps?

Prior to your first session, I will send you over a few forms to fill out via email. These forms include practice policies, payment information, and a brief intake form. These forms should take no longer than 10-15 minutes to complete. 

​This is my first time trying out therapy! What can I expect from the first visit? 

Whether is your first time in therapy or not, the first session is what I like to call a "get to know you" session. During this time, we will primarily focus on the why of your decision to seek therapy and like I said -- get to know each other! We will work together to determine some treatment goals and discuss the frequency for your sessions. 

​How long are sessions?

Individual sessions are 50 minutes. 

​How often do people typically attend therapy? 

It depends! I typically suggest that the first few weeks of treatment be weekly so that we can build a relationship and get the ball rolling with working on your goals. From there, we can determine if that frequency works for you or if you would like to meet bi-weekly. I offer monthly frequency, as well. 

​Do you accept insurance? 

While I am not in-network with any insurance providers, I can provide a Superbill for out-of-network reimbursement. It is your responsibility to submit the appropriate forms for reimbursement. I recommend checking with your provider to confirm your out-of-network benefits. 

​What forms of payment do you accept? 

At this time, I accept payments via credit card or cash (if in-person). Sessions are $150 each and are due at the time of session.
