Frequently Asked Questions

Thank you for considering me as a potential partner in your healing journey! Determining whether we would be a good fit is a crucial aspect of the therapeutic process, and I so appreciate your awareness of its importance. Additionally, everyone’s unique experiences and needs require a tailored approach. To address this concern, I offer consultations at the beginning of our therapeutic journey, where we can discuss your specific goals and explore whether my therapeutic approach aligns with your needs.

The process of determining fit doesn't end after the initial consultation; it's an ongoing dialogue throughout our work together, and we will regularly check in on your progress and feelings about our therapeutic relationship. Ultimately, my goal is to create a safe and trusting space where you can tell your healing story and become the author of your own narrative.

A collaborative and compassionate therapeutic journey that prioritizes your well-being and growth.

Our work together will begin with an initial consultation to discuss your goals and needs, allowing us to determine if we are both a good fit for your unique situation. I tailor our sessions to address your specific challenges. Our therapeutic relationship is built on trust, empathy, and open communication, and we regularly review your progress to ensure therapy remains effective. In this supportive environment, you can gain insight, develop coping strategies, name the unnameable, and help you be seen and heard for exactly who you are.

Yes, therapy is confidential! I prioritize your privacy and adhere to strict ethical and legal standards that ensure all information shared during our sessions remains confidential. Your trust is of utmost importance, and I cannot disclose any session details without your explicit written consent, except in circumstances where there is a risk of harm. I'm committed to creating a safe and confidential space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings openly, and if you ever have any questions or concerns about confidentiality, please don't hesitate to reach out for clarification.

My therapy practice is entirely online to maximize accessibility and convenience for individuals in the 37+ states where I am authorized to practice.

My psychological assessment practice primarily conducts assessments in-person, with the exception of bariatric and immigration evaluations which can be conducted entirely online.

I am authorized to practice in 39+ states across the United States through PSYPACT (Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact). This allows me to offer my services to individuals in those states, ensuring that you can access the support you need regardless of your location. If you reside in one of these states or have any questions about whether I can provide services in your area, please feel free to reach out, and I'll be happy to assist you.

At this time, we do not have any staff members trained to prescribe medication. If medication is something you are considering, the practice will be more than happy to provide appropriate referrals for you to explore your options. If you are on medication, with your permission, we will work collaboratively with the prescriber to provide the best treatment possible for you. In some cases, a combination of medication and psychotherapy has shown to be an effective course for treatment.
