What truly sets this practice apart is the deep understanding that healing isn't one-size-fits-all. From my very first session, I felt seen—not just as a client, but as a whole person with a unique story. The space is supportive and safe, allowing me to move at my own pace. I was met with compassion, and a deep respect for my experiences. My healing has felt collaborative, and deeply personal. ​

Frequently Asked Questions
Is therapy right for me? What kinds of people go to therapy?
Therapy is for everyone. You don’t need to have a specific diagnosis or be in crisis to benefit from speaking with a therapist. Whether you’re navigating a major life transition, coping with stress, unpacking past experiences, or simply looking for personal growth, therapy can support you.
​
There’s no issue too big or too small to bring into the therapy space. What matters most is finding a therapist who feels like the right fit for you. Many therapists offer free consultations to help you get a sense of whether you feel comfortable working together. It often takes a few sessions to really know if it’s a good match.
What can I expect in the first session?
The first session is often called an initial assessment. It’s a chance for you and your therapist to get to know each other. During this time, your therapist will ask questions about your background, life experiences, and current concerns in order to better understand your needs and goals. This helps lay the groundwork for a personalized plan moving forward.
​
Therapy is your space and you’re welcome to talk about whatever is coming up for you. It's also a space for you to ask questions, share anything that feels important, and begin building trust together.
Is therapy confidential?
Yes. What you share in therapy is private and confidential. There are a few rare exceptions to this (such as if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others), and these limits will be clearly explained in our first session.
What is your cancellation policy?
If you need to cancel or reschedule, I ask for at least 24–48 hours' notice. Cancellations made with less notice may be subject to a cancellation fee. This helps me keep the schedule available and fair for all clients.
Do you accept insurance?
We do not offer direct billing at this time. However, many insurance plans do cover psychotherapy provided by a registered therapist. I recommend checking with your insurance provider to confirm your coverage. If sessions are eligible, I’ll provide you with a detailed receipt after payment that you can submit for reimbursement.
