I offer an initial free 20 minute phone consult, so that you can get a better sense of who I am and my approach to therapy. This brief phone call will also allow me to determine whether your needs fall within my scope of practice and expertise. It will also give us a chance to get a sense if we are a good fit together.
In the beginning, I see clients weekly or bi-weekly. Therapy is a process, and insights or coping strategies often build gradually. Weekly or bi-weekly sessions help maintain continuity, so we can work on issues while they’re fresh in mind. Gaps between sessions can slow progress, especially when working through trauma, grief, or deep emotional patterns. Frequent sessions provide a consistent brave and safe space to process difficult material. Plus, the predictability of weekly or bi-weekly sessions helps regulate the nervous system and maintain stability and progress.
