FAQS
HOW LONG IS EACH THERAPY SESSION?
Every session is 50 minutes long. Our first intake session will include review of necessary forms and what brings us together. After that, we will have a structured session based on your needs and goals
WHAT TYPE OF THERAPY DO YOU USE?
I use CBT, DBT, and ACT. Depending on what brings you to therapy, we will tailor our treatment to what is best for you!
WHAT IS THE 15 MINUTE INFO SESSION FOR?
If you are curious and have questions and would like to chat live
If you want to have a quick conversation to see if we may be a good fit
If you want to schedule via phone instead of online
To discuss appointment availability if you don't see a time offered when you need.
WHAT IF I HAVE NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT, OR AM NOT READY TO TALK ABOUT "IT" YET
We take it at your pace. We will begin by getting to know each other. I will direct the conversation by asking questions and as we get to know each other, our comfort level increases. I know that what brings you here is very personal and sensitive information and you may not be ready to talk about it right away. That's ok. We will get there when you are ready.
DO YOU PRESCRIBE MEDICATION?
As an LCSW, I am unable to prescribe medication. However, talk therapy is an important addition to treatment when medication is also prescribed. Medication will help with chemical imbalances and help in taking the "edge" off, while talk therapy helps get to the root of the issue, teaching coping skills to combat what is challenging you.
