Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide in-person sessions?

Yes, at this time I do provide a limited number of in-person sessions when appropriate. Social distance and mask protocols are also used to help maintain everyone's safety.

Can I start therapy even if my partner is not ready?

You can begin therapy at any time. If your partner is not ready, that is OK! We will get started on your goals and when your partner is ready we can discuss the best next steps to switching to relationship counseling, whether that's with me or a new provider.

I've never done therapy before, what is it like?

Therapy is a supportive process. In our first session I will get to know you and we will develop goals that you wish to achieve. At your pace, we will identify steps to achieving your goals while also working to overcome barriers that have gotten in your way in the past. You can expect to be supported, respected, and empowered when working with me.

Are you going to tell my parents everything I say?

No, however it does depend on safety. I take your privacy very seriously as I believe everyone has a right to a safe place to talk about issues without fear of it being repeated. Therefore, regardless of age, I will not share what you say with your parents UNLESS I have a safety concern. In our very first session we will discuss this in great detail so you understand confidentially and how I work to protect your privacy at all times.

You don't accept my insurance. Are there any other ways to make pay besides out of pocket.

Yes, please check out my cost page for additional payment options.
