Getting Started

Making the decision to start therapy often comes after you have put in a great deal of effort thinking about if therapy is for you or if this is the time to start. You’ve also put in a great deal of effort to find a therapist who is skilled, helps you feel safe, comfortable, and is available.  Now that you’ve done the work to get here, let me make it as seamless as possible for us to get into the work. The process is the same for online therapy and in office sessions (when available).

To schedule an appointment follow these simple steps

Step 1: Request a free 20 minute consultation.

Step 2: Once I accept your request I will send a brief screening for you to complete prior to our consultation to learn more about you.

Step 3: If we decided we’d like to work together, look at my availability and let me know what you would like for your recurring appointment time. 

Step 4: I will send my practice documents to you via the secure client portal where you will complete an intake, informed consent, and learn about my practice policies, and update payment information for automatic payments BEFORE your first appointment.

You will have access to scheduling, secure messaging between sessions, and access to your billing documents. 

You may feel all kinds of feelings before your first appointment. That’s ok. We’ll take it slow and learn about what is going on for you that led you to counseling and what you want to accomplish while you are here. 

Sessions are 50 minutes.

I recommend weekly appointments in the beginning of our work and we will discuss what feels helpful as we move through your care. You get to decide the duration of therapy. Some people come and get down to the work they want to do, and some take a meandering approach. I am here to collaborate with you on what makes sense for your situation.
