FAQs

Once you have made a decision to see a therapist, you still might be apprehensive about the process. Many people feel nervous before their first appointment. Therapy is a shared journey; a shared process. And, although you and I will travel together, it is ultimately your journey and you will make your own decisions. I do not have answers to all your concerns, but I do have the ability to listen carefully and will ask thoughtful questions. Your answers to these questions will help shape the direction of our work. You can expect to be respected. You can expect that I will offer opinions and suggestions from time to time but I will not tell you what to do. I aim to help you reflect and decide a course of action and then cheer you on and hold you accountable to the changes you’ve intentionally sought to pursue.

Finding the right therapist is so important - I offer free 15 minute consultations over a video call to see if we are a good fit. If we work together for a bit and you’re finding it to be what you’re looking for, I also encourage you to let me know.

I work with individuals in California facing anxiety, depression, and compulsive behaviors — and with those digging into what's underneath: trauma, low self-esteem, old relationship patterns. My aim is helping you understand yourself and live in line with what actually matters to you. I especially enjoy working with fellow neurodivergent folks navigating sensory needs, communication differences, and emotional responses across everyday life.

I offer virtual sessions via HIPPA compliant Zoom and Google Meets.

Appointments are 50 minutes. This is the standard length of a counseling session. If you are interested in a longer session (75 minutes) please contact me regarding availability and pricing.

To begin, we will meet once a week. I find it’s important to gain some momentum in the beginning by meeting weekly or progress can stall out. Once we've build solid rapport and some or all of your goals are met, we will titrate our session frequency.
