I have never been to therapy before. I am nervous. What can I expect?
Going to therapy for the first time can be nerve-wracking, especially if you are in a vulnerable, painful or numb place. Talking to a stranger about your inner life is challenging. Even making it this far to search for help takes bravery and courage! Thank you for making it this far. I offer a free initial 20 minute consultation either by phone or video chat - whatever you are more comfortable with. During this time we explore areas where you feel currently stuck in your life, and collaborate on potential ways we can support you to become unstuck. We also review fees, availability and confidentiality. You can ask or share any questions or concerns you have about starting therapy, explore if we are the right fit for each other and given what issues you are seeking support, what is the right approach for you.
Is everything you tell me confidential?
Everything you tell me is held as confidential, with the exceptions of: - if you are a danger to yourself or others - a case of elder, dependent or child abuse - a mandated court order
Do you offer teletherapy? What does this entail?
I offer telepherapy on my online confidential portal. It is a convenient way to get support in the security of your own home/office/private space. You need to have access to a private space, good wifi connection and a laptop/phone/tablet device with sound/video to support the call.
Do you offer in person sessions?
I have an office in Laurel Heights, San Francisco and I am available for in person sessions.
Do you take insurance?
I do not take insurance directly. I can provide you with a superbill which you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement.
