How do I schedule a session?
The first step is to call me for a 15-minute consultation, where we’ll determine if my skill set meets your needs and also to see if we’re a comfortable therapeutic fit.
If we decide to move forward, I’ll send you a link to my secure client portal, where you'll register and complete intake paperwork. At the scheduled time, you'll log into your client portal for our video session to begin. This first session is a comprehensive 75-90 minute assessment, focusing on understanding your current concerns, history, and goals for therapy. Clients are required to keep a credit/debit card on file, which will be charged at the end of each session.

Do you offer in-person therapy?
At this time, I provide online therapy (telehealth) only. This allows for greater flexibility and accessibility while maintaining high-quality care.
How do online sessions work?
Sessions are held via a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You’ll receive a private link before each session—just click and join. No downloads required.
What is your cancellation policy?
I require at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations or no-shows will be charged $150 fee.
What if I’ve never done therapy before?
Whether you’re new to therapy or returning after some time away, I’ll guide you through the process at your pace. Think of it as an open, judgment-free space where you can explore, process, and grow.
I’m not sure if I'm a 'feminist.' what does this actually mean?
Feminism, at its simplest, is just the belief in equal rights and opportunities for all genders. For me, it’s about fairness, autonomy, and respect for each person’s lived experience, and while this perspective informs my work, therapy with me isn’t about ideology or labels. You don’t need to identify as a feminist or know anything about it to work with me. What matters is that you feel comfortable, understood, and supported in your own growth. I believe it’s important for clients to choose a therapist whose values align with them, so I want to be transparent about what informs my approach. At the end of the day, therapy is about you—your experiences, your goals, and what matters most to you.
I’m not sure if therapy is right for me. can we talk first?
Absolutely. I offer a free 15-minute consultation where we can discuss your needs, answer any questions, and see if we’re a good fit.
