What to Expect

1

Begin with a conversation

A 15-minute consultation considers whether there appears to be a reasonable fit to proceed. It is not a clinical evaluation or acceptance into treatment. The practice may use administrative review instead when a consultation is unnecessary.

2

Understand the next step and fee

If there is a reasonable basis to proceed, we explain the service, self-pay fee and financial terms. After you choose to proceed, the practice can invite you to schedule an intake.

3

Attend the Intake Evaluation

The 90-minute intake is the clinical evaluation where treatment appropriateness and care planning are considered. An invitation to intake does not guarantee acceptance into ongoing treatment.

4

Plan ongoing appointments

When treatment is established, the practice arranges recurring 60-minute appointments or specifically authorizes flexible follow-up scheduling. Booster or return appointments are 60 minutes and may require renewed review.

Understanding is where meaningful change begins.

I believe meaningful psychological care begins with seeing the whole person, not simply the challenges that bring them here. Through thoughtful assessment, evidence-based therapy, and genuine collaboration, I help people better understand themselves so they can move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and confidence.
