Frequently Asked Questions

How does counseling work?

During the initial sessions, my focus will be getting to know you. I may ask you questions about your family background, developmental history and the challenges your are currently facing. After gathering information, I will give you some feedback and suggestions, then we work together on defining what you wish to gain from your counseling experience.

​

I value collaboration, clear communication and setting realistic expectations. We'll spend time to understand the sources of your specific stressors and identify your needs.  While I bring knowledge and skills that may be beneficial to you, I'm interested in seeing you grow in confidence and ability to handle life's challenges.

Do you take insurance?

I currently do not accept insurance. Please check with your insurance plan about any out-of-network coverage.

What is your rate?

My rate is $150 for a standard 50 minute session. 

I offer limited slots for sliding-scale clients.  If you believe we may be a good fit, but you are worried about finances, please feel free to reach out to discuss your needs.

How often do we meet?

I recommend meeting weekly for the initial sessions. After getting to know each other and establishing your goals, we can decide how often we meet based on your situation.

How do I get started?

I offer a 15 minute free consultation to discuss your needs and see if we are a good fit. Please feel free to send me a message on the contact page if you have any questions!
