Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the therapy process, scheduling, and what to expect on our journey together.
Therapy is a gift you give yourself. Whether you're facing a specific crisis or just feel a general sense of "stuckness," having a dedicated space to process your thoughts can be life-changing. If you're wondering, it's usually a sign that you're ready.
Our first meeting is about connection. We'll discuss your goals, your history, and most importantly, we'll see how it feels to talk together. There's no pressure to have it all figured out on day one.
Healing isn't linear. Some clients find what they need in 12 sessions, while others benefit from years of ongoing support. We will check in regularly to make sure you're getting exactly what you need from our time.
Standard individual therapy sessions are 50 minutes long. This is often referred to as the "therapeutic hour," which allows for 50 minutes of direct contact and 10 minutes for administrative tasks and session preparation.
I am currently an out-of-network provider. I can provide you with a monthly "superbill" which you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. I recommend contacting your provider beforehand to understand your out-of-network mental health benefits.
I require 24 hours' notice for all cancellations or rescheduling. Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours' notice will be charged the full session fee, except in cases of true medical emergencies.
Yes, confidentiality is a cornerstone of therapy. Everything discussed in our sessions is private and protected by law. There are a few legal exceptions to this (such as risk of immediate harm to self or others), which we will discuss in detail during our first session.
