A BETTER YOU THERAPY / GETTING STARTED

Getting Started

Begin with a conversation.

Finding a therapist involves considering clinical expertise, therapeutic approach, and interpersonal compatibility. I encourage prospective clients to explore my approach and areas of focus before reaching out.

01 / BEFORE REACHING OUT

What to know before getting in touch.

In-person psychotherapy

My practice prioritizes in-person psychotherapy. The dedicated therapeutic environment and physical presence are important elements of my approach. Occasional telehealth sessions may be available to established clients when circumstances prevent in-person attendance, but I do not provide ongoing telehealth-only psychotherapy.

Recurring appointment availability

New client openings are listed as recurring weekly or biweekly appointment times. Availability can change until an appointment has been confirmed. If the schedule is full, you are welcome to inquire about the waitlist.

Inquire about beginning psychotherapy.

For an initial inquiry, please include your name, your preferred way to be contacted, and the recurring appointment time you are interested in, if applicable. You may also inquire about waitlist availability.

EMAIL THE PRACTICE

03 / WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

We can discuss whether an available recurring appointment fits your schedule and how to proceed with an initial appointment. An inquiry does not guarantee availability or establish a therapeutic relationship.
