FAQs

  • Before we schedule our first session, I offer a complimentary 15 minute intro call to all potential clients. It's a great opportunity for us to connect and get to know each other a bit better. Here's what you can expect during our call:

    • I'll ask you about what brought you to therapy and what you're hoping to achieve.

    • I'll share a bit about myself and my approach as a therapist, so you can get a feel for whether we'd be a good fit.

    • If you have any questions that I didn't cover, feel free to ask away! This is your chance to get all the info you need.

    • We'll also chat about practical stuff like rates, insurance, and my availability, so you have all the details you need to make an informed decision.

  • Check out my out-of-network reimbursement calculator on my Services page for a personalized estimate! Typically, if you have out-of-network benefits, your insurance will cover around 60-80% of each session's cost.

    I'm not in network with any insurance company. As an out-of-network provider, I offer the complimentary services of checking your benefits and submitting claims on your behalf. This means you receive direct reimbursement from your insurance without adding another thing to your to-do list!

  • I bring an empathetic, non-judgmental, and relatable style to sessions with my clients. In our first session, I'll ask questions to understand your life experiences and listen without judgment. Together, we'll set goals for what you hope to achieve and define how we’ll know therapy is working for you. In subsequent sessions, you'll have the opportunity to vent, gain different perspectives, challenge your thoughts, receive feedback, and develop new coping skills. Therapy can sometimes be difficult while also feel fun and relieving. I'm here to support you in achieving the change and growth you desire.

  • How often we meet totally depends on what works best for you. Usually, I recommend new clients start off with weekly sessions as we're getting to know each other, but as you start feeling more comfortable and making progress, we can switch things up to every other week or even once a month. It's all about finding a rhythm that feels right for you, and we'll figure it out together as we find what helps you make the most out of our time together!

  • I kindly ask for at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. Without this notice, you'll be responsible for the full fee. I understand life can get busy and plans can change, but this policy ensures we can make the most of our time together and I can accommodate all of my clients effectively. If you're running a bit late, just give me a heads-up, but please note that arriving more than 15 minutes late may result in rescheduling and the full session fee.

  • The length of therapy is different for everyone, depending on what you want to achieve and the challenges you're facing. For some, a few months might do the trick, while others might find that longer-term support works better for them. Together, you and I will figure out together what timeline feels comfortable and effective for you!

  • To ensure your privacy and maintain clear boundaries, I don't follow back current and former clients on Instagram, but welcome anyone to follow me if my content is meaningful to you. I believe it's super important to keep your confidentiality top-notch and our therapeutic relationship on track. If you ever have any questions or concerns about this, feel free to bring them up during our sessions. Your trust and privacy mean the world to me!

  • I totally get that endings can be tough. That's why I think it's important to have a clear process for ending our work together. The length of our termination will depend on how long and intense our sessions have been. If I feel like therapy isn't quite hitting the mark or if there are any payment issues, I'll have a conversation with you first before making any decisions. If, for any reason, we decide to part ways or you'd like to explore other therapists, I'll give you a list of therapists to connect with or you can find someone yourself if you prefer. Lastly, if we haven't seen each other for three weeks without any plans in place, due to legal and ethical reasons, I'll have to consider our professional relationship has ended.
