You can choose to book a consultation or a full first session.
Here is some information that may help you choose what is best for you:
15–20 minute phone consultation:
This can be a great fit if you have a clear sense of what you’re working through and feel emotionally grounded enough to share a brief overview of your concerns and therapy goals. It gives you space to ask questions, get a feel for my style, learn about my approach, and see if it feels like a good fit.
Full first session:
If you’re carrying a more complex or trauma-related story—especially if it might feel activating to try to summarize briefly—I often recommend starting with a full session. This allows us to move at a more supportive pace and begin more thoughtfully. We can then use the first few sessions to assess for fit.
I’ll leave the choice up to you—whatever feels most supportive is the right place to start.
Limited income based sliding scale appointments are an option. Income verification is needed to apply.
24-hour notice is required for rescheduling or cancelling an appointment or there is a charge of the full fee.
PAYMENT
I take cash, checks and credit cards. I do not accept insurance, however, I can provide you with an invoice called a Superbill that can be submitted to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.
Questions to ask your insurance provider:
Do I have mental health insurance benefits? What are my out of network benefits?
How much will be covered per session? Is couples therapy covered?
What is my deductible and has it been met?
How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
Is approval required from my primary care physician?
