cancellation policy
I offer one free cancellation every four months. Beyond that, sessions can be rescheduled based on my current availability. To reschedule, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice. You may move your appointment to any available time in the week before, the week of, or the week after your originally scheduled session.
frequency of sessions
Therapy typically begins with 2–3 sessions to understand your history, clarify goals, and see if we’re a good fit. I only accept new folks who can commit to weekly sessions for the first eight weeks, after which we’ll decide whether weekly or every-other-week sessions work best. Most people notice shifts within 8–15 sessions and often continue for 6–12 months or longer.
I see therapy as a garden we cultivate together: preparing the soil, planting new insights, and pruning what no longer serves you. That upfront investment allows meaningful growth to take root. Once you’ve reached a place where you feel ready, we plan a closing session to prepare for life without regular therapy. You’re always welcome to return later for check-ins as needed.
I do not directly work with insurance. Many folks choose to use their out-of-network benefits or pay out-of-pocket, which gives more freedom to choose a therapist who fits your needs and allows us to work more flexibly toward your goals. For those seeking insurance reimbursement, I provide a Superbill that can be submitted to most plans.
