What happens when I contact you?
When you contact me via website, phone, or email, I will respond to set up a time to chat briefly by telephone. If I don’t have availability, I’ll let you know and offer you referrals.
What will we talk about on the first call?
We’ll start by addressing potential logistical barriers: your schedule, insurance & payment. Then we’ll talk briefly what you’re looking for and your reasons for seeking therapy. There is also an opportunity for you to ask questions.
What happens next?
If we decide that we might be a good fit to work together, I’ll send you a link to get registered.
Before confirming an appointment, I’ll check your insurance benefits (if applicable), and contact you via the portal to let you know your estimated cost per session.
Will we meet in-person?
The majority of my practice is teletherapy. I see a limited number of people in person and this is determined on a case by case basis.
What happens in the first appointment?
In your first appointment, we will meet for 45-60 minutes. This appointment is one that will help us start to assess what kinds of goals you have, and for me to learn more about you. There will also be time for you to ask questions.
