If you’ve been considering seeking out
the support of a therapist, that’s often a good indicator that therapy is right for you. Many people seek out therapy
when they are struggling to cope with
life’s challenges, have difficulty managing emotions, are interested in personal growth, or to gain a deeper understanding of themselves. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, stuck, irritable, disconnected—or you’re facing any other difficult emotion—therapy can help you find a new way forward. I offer a free consultation so we can talk about your needs and determine whether therapy
feels like a good fit for you.

Finding the right therapist is a personal process, and it’s important to feel that they align with your goals, needs, and what you hope to gain from therapy. Things to consider include their background, experience, areas of focus, therapeutic approach, and whether you feel comfortable talking with them. Feeling safe, heard, accepted, and respected is key to a successful therapeutic relationship and alliance. Finding the right therapist can take time, and it’s okay to meet with more than one before you find the right fit.

Yes. Everything you share in therapy is
kept confidential. Your therapist will not share your private information without
your written permission. Virtual sessions
are conducted using a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform to protect your privacy and ensure your information remains confidential. 

However, there are a few legal exceptions where confidentiality may need to be broken to keep you or others safe.
These legal situations include:

· If there is a risk of serious harm to yourself
  or someone else
· If there is suspected abuse or neglect of a      child, elder, or vulnerable adult
· If it is required by a court order

Before your first session, your therapist
will explain these exceptions in more detail, to ensure your understanding.

The first therapy session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and start building the foundation for our work together—you’re welcome to share as much or as little as you’re comfortable with. You’ll learn more about my style as a therapist and my approach to therapy, and you’re welcome
to ask questions at any time. We’ll begin to identify your goals and discuss how we can work collaboratively to accomplish those goals throughout the course of treatment. The session will feel like an open conversation and is a space for you to see whether it feels like a safe and supportive environment for ongoing work together.

55 minutes in length.
