Frequently asked questions.
-
Everyone can benefit from therapy. We all have our “stuff”, rocks in our emotional backpack we carry through life. Let’s figure out what those rocks are that hold you back from being the person you want to be and work to lighten the load together.
-
Couples are ready for therapy when they're both committed to the relationship and willing to put in the effort to grow—no matter how stuck things feel. If you're open to honest conversations, ready to take responsibility for your part, and willing to learn new ways of connecting, therapy can be a powerful step toward lasting change.

I provide family therapy on a case-by-case basis. If you are looking for family therapy, please contact me for a consultation call and together we will see if I am a good fit for your needs. Please note, I do not work with minors.
-
I recognize that therapy is a meaningful investment of time, energy, and resources. My fee is $175 for individual sessions and $200 for couples or family sessions (55 minutes).
While I don’t bill insurance directly, I can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement through your Out of Network benefits. If this is something you may need, I recommend you contact your insurance company to discuss your benefits and coverage.
-
I recommend meeting weekly in order to get a good understanding of your needs and goals for therapy, and to develop a strong therapeutic relationship. Once symptoms and problems stabilize, we could decrease our frequency of meetings. Of course, I understand that weekly meetings may not be possible with scheduling and cost, but going longer than 2 weeks between sessions will impact the momentum of your progress. I strongly recommend couples in particular do not go longer than 2 weeks between sessions as the work will become more of a review and “catch up” on what’s happened between sessions, rather than proactively working on deeper issues that are impacting your dynamic.
-
That all depends on you! Like most things, you get out of therapy what you put into it. Understanding that change doesn’t happen 1 hour per week on my couch, you determine what change looks like and at what speed based on how you employ the insights and skills we discuss in session outside of session.
-
Yes! I want therapy to be as accessible as possible and if it works best for you to meet virtually, let’s do it! With one caveat…
I strongly recommend couples and families come for in-person sessions when possible. I find couples and family therapy to be much more effective in-person as it allows me to witness and feel your “dance” (dynamic), and intervene more effectively. If needed, we can start virtually, however it may be requested in certain circumstances that we move to in-person meetings if our work together is not conducive for virtual sessions.
