Group therapy is offered periodically or organized based on interest. If you’d like to learn more or join a future group, please reach out — I’d be happy to connect with you.

Do you offer virtual therapy?

Yes. Sessions are offered via a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform. Therapy from the comfort of your home—no commute, no stress.

What can I expect in the first session?

The first session is a supportive space to share what’s bringing you in. I’ll ask about your history, goals, and concerns so we can begin shaping a treatment path that fits your life. You’ll also have a chance to ask questions and get a feel for our fit.

How long are sessions and how often do we meet?

Sessions are typically 50-60 minutes. Most clients meet weekly, but we can adjust based on your needs and goals.

The self-pay rate is $200 per 50-minute session. I also offer limited sliding scale spots based on financial need and availability.
