Service Fees and Policies
I am accepting new clients but have a waitlist for intakes that will open up in MAY 2024.
Length of Treatment
A typical therapy session lasts 53 - 60 minutes, with the possible exception of the initial assessment session, as it may take more time to gather information depending on the complexity of the case. Therapy sessions are usually recommended on a weekly basis and we can discuss your needs and preferences. Therapy can be short term, lasting eight weeks or less, or as long as six months or more. Once treatment goals have been reached we will discuss a transitional plan to help you continue to receive the support needed with community resources and follow up sessions on an as needed basis.

Cancellation Policy
A block of time is reserved for your appointment, so if you need to cancel or reschedule, please give at least 24 hours of advance notice. If a cancellation occurs less than 24 hours from the scheduled appointment, a $50 cancellation fee may occur. Should you fail to appear (“no show”) for your appointment, you will be charged the full fee for the visit. Exceptions are made when an emergency arises.
Confidentiality
Therapy sessions are confidential. However, it is required by law for therapists to report suspected child abuse, dependent adult abuse, elder abuse and threats of physical harm to others.
