How therapy with me works

Free 15 min. Phone consult 

• We start with a scheduled phone consult in which we will discuss a little about what brings you to therapy and the ways in which I can help. I use SimplePractice, a HIPPA compliant electronic health record and platform for telehealth. 

Sessions:

• I see patients on a weekly basis for 50 minutes at the start of treatment. It is important that you allot the time in your day and are in a private safe space for your own comfort to make the most out of your time in therapy. All you will need is internet connection, privacy and some extra materials that we can discuss prior to use. 

I am an out of network provider and do not accept insurance. Payment is accepted through all major credit cards. 

Treatment: 

• In our first few sessions we will focus on building a trusting therapeutic relationship, in my opinion this is one of the most important aspects for therapy to work. During this time we will also be setting the goals we will be focusing on. Treament goals are important in therapy because they provide us with a structure to work on together in session as well as outside too. Therapy is 50 minutes of your week, the rest of your time is yours to implement changes as process occurs in the therapy session. 

Continuation of treatment:

• The theoretical approaches I use in my practice are not quick fixes. If you are someone that is looking for a solution focused treatment, working with me may not be the most suitable. In my approach I dive in with you as far back as you want to go and believe that only you can determine when you no longer need therapeutic services. Because each human in nature is different, treatment duration will depend on a case by case basis.
