Therapy sessions typically involve confidential conversations between you and myself. Together, we'll explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a safe and non-judgmental space. The goal is to help you gain insight, develop coping strategies, and work towards your personal goals for growth and healing.

Therapy sessions usually last 55 minutes but shorter or longer sessions can be accommodate as needed.

The frequency of therapy sessions can vary based on your individual needs and goals. Initially, sessions may be scheduled weekly, but as progress is made, they may become less frequent. We will determine together the best schedule for your needs.

Yes, therapy is confidential. Your privacy is of the utmost importance, and everything discussed in therapy is kept strictly confidential, with a few exceptions outlined in my confidentiality policy.

Therapy can help with a wide range of issues, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, self-esteem issues, and coping with stress. My clinical interests include: artistic expression, mindfulness, sexual and gender identity exploration, sex positive approaches, existential questioning, trauma recovery, couples therapy, harm reduction, religious trauma, and body image.

Therapy can be beneficial for anyone seeking support, guidance, or personal growth. If you're experiencing emotional distress, struggling with relationships, or feeling stuck in certain areas of your life, therapy may be helpful. It's normal to have questions or reservations about starting therapy, and I can address any concerns you may have during an initial consultation.

Before your first session, you may want to think about what you hope to gain from therapy and any specific goals or concerns you'd like to address. It's also helpful to arrive on time and with an open mind, ready to engage in the therapeutic process.

If you find that we're not the right fit for therapy, it's completely okay. Just like any relationship, the therapeutic bond between a client and therapist is essential for progress. If it's determined that we're not the best match, I'll gladly assist you in finding another therapist who better aligns with your needs and preferences. Your comfort and progress are top priorities, and finding the right therapist is key to a successful therapeutic journey.

To schedule an appointment, you can contact me directly via phone or email. I will work with you to find a convenient time for your initial consultation and subsequent sessions.

My standard session rates are $160 for individuals and $200 for couples. However, I understand that financial circumstances vary. I offer sliding scale options to ensure therapy remains accessible. Sliding scale means that the fee for therapy sessions can be adjusted based on individual financial situations. I encourage individuals to contribute what they can, enabling others to receive the support they need.

If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, please notify me at least 24 hours in advance. While I understand emergencies happen, sessions canceled within 24 hours are subject to a cancellation fee, typically half of our agreed-upon session rate, except in specific extenuating circumstances.
