Question 1

Do you provide in person therapy?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I provide in person therapy and online therapy. Typically, it is whatever feels convenient and comfortable for the client.

Question 2

What is the length of therapy?

Accepted Answer

There is no definitive answer to this question. Though it’s safe to say some individuals find a few sessions are sufficient, while others choose to continue long-term (over 20 sessions). Often individuals choose to continue to work with me through additional layers as they arise while others choose to address additional items outside of the therapeutic context. We can collaborate together to help you make the ultimate choice for yourself.

Question 3

What do I need on my first appointment?

Accepted Answer

Prior to your appointment, please complete and sign the consent form, intake form,  and good faith estimate.

Question 4

Why choose online therapy?

Accepted Answer

Online therapy is special in its own way because you can sit and chat with me from the comfort of your own home, office, car, or where ever feels most comfortable for you. Life is busy and full of commitments. Online therapy saves time on commute, relieves stress on rushing to make your appointment, and helps with worries of childcare. Also, sometimes it is hard for others to open up in an office setting. Online therapy is a great alternative and it allows you to sit in a place of your choosing that might help relieve those barriers.

Question 5

Why don't you take insurance?

Accepted Answer

I like the ability to be flexible and customize my clinical approach based on my clients needs in a way that benefits my clients without being limited by insurance companies. Insurance companies require mental health professionals to provide diagnosis and treatment plans reducing confidentiality. In addition, insurance companies can limit the number of sessions and can deny request to increase number of session a client can have.
