I invite you to reach out to me via email to schedule a free consultation phone call. You can ask for this by simply writing something like, "I am interested in starting therapy and I'd like to schedule a consultation." When I see your email, I'll reply with some days/times and we'll get a phone call scheduled!
During that first phone call, we'll talk a bit about what's prompting you to seek therapy now and I'll share a bit about how I work and how might be able to support you. You'll have opportunity to ask any questions you may have as you navigate this path. If we decide to move forward together, we'll schedule our first visit and I'll email you some paperwork to complete beforehand.

I ask everyone to plan for weekly visits, where we meet on a mutually agreed-upon day and time each week. This type of routine helps create the rhythm and momentum for therapy. As your self-understanding deepens and you find yourself routinely experiencing a greater sense of relief from what troubles you, we can shift to bi-weekly or even monthly visits.
Therapy does not have to be forever, nor does it involve a pre-determined deadline. Your therapy can end when you decide you have met your goals or otherwise feel ready to move forward without professional support.

We will meet online and, in that visit, we'll review paperwork and confidentiality, go over some logistics about our visit, and I will ask you to share openly about what is bringing you into therapy. I will ask some gentle questions, we will touch on important parts of your history, and we'll begin building some mutually agreed-upon goals for our work together. While there are some nuts-and-bolts we do have to cover, especially to meet insurance's requirements, I ensure there is enough space in our visit for you to share whatever is on your mind that day.
It's not uncommon for the first visit to be a bit nerve-wracking, but once we get started it's likely to feel like a big exhale as you notice things beginning to shift. It's never too late to start.

This is a common self-description for adults seeking therapy! Maybe you've been socialized to “hold it together” in work, relationships, or daily life while internally you feel anxious, disconnected, exhausted, or stuck. Therapy is a great place to address what's happening beneath the surface, even when you're unsure how to put it into words. If you find yourself feeling "off", that's a valid reason to reach out! You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. You deserve care when you're quietly holding it together.

If you're still unsure about whether or not therapy is for you, let's talk about it! I am happy to be part of your exploration.
