Frequently Asked Questions
Appointment times are 50 minutes, 1.5 hours, or 2 hours.
I recommend individual sessions to be 1.5 hours and couple's sessions to be 2 hours.
The time in session goes very quickly. Over the years in my experience, individuals do not start the session with the most challenging part of their issue. The first 10 or 15 minutes are spent getting comfortable and focused before discussing the issues. By then, there are only 35 minutes left and the client can walk away from the session feeling less productive.
YES! Ethically and legally I must adhere to HIPPA regulations and keep your information confidential. Also, self-pay therapy increases your privacy from insurance companies.
No. You can talk about what you believe is important. With that said, I would encourage you to consider exploring some of the things you learned in your childhood that continue to repeat themselves into adulthood and hold you back.
Only the people you deem relevant to meeting your goals. I may have a suggestion, but ultimately it is your session.

I offer telehealth (video) to help individuals who would rather have their appointment during the day but can't leave work or live hours away. I prefer in-person, but will do telehealth over no therapy at all.
There are two options.
