Our therapy sessions are usually 50 minutes to 90 minutes long but can change depending on your needs.

Sessions are by appointment only and are organized weekly, twice weekly, every other week, or monthly depending on your needs.

This is a completely valid question to ask, and it is one of the most difficult questions to answer.

The easiest answer is that it ends when you feel you have completed the work you sought therapy for.

This determination is always ultimately in your hands. Some benefit from a single session, and others choose to come in for weeks.

Each person’s therapy is naturally unique and personal, and it moves at its own pace.

Our first visit is a chance for us to meet and get and to know each other.

In our first session, we will work to develop an understanding of both your concerns and hopes that bring you to therapy and to get an initial understanding of whether I can be beneficial to you.

It is likewise an opportunity for you to get a sense of how I see therapy and if you feel comfortable with my approach.

Since the process and outcome of therapy are so connected to the therapy relationship, it is important that the decision to work together is mutual.

Confidentiality is the bedrock of any psychotherapy; it protects your privacy to communicate freely and openly in your sessions. Your sessions and all details you disclose are always confidential.

Except for the instances expressed below that are required by law, I will not share any information or respond to questions of any kind from any source without your written consent:

I am mandated to report any suspicion of child or elder abuse or neglect to the proper authorities.

Also, the courts may subpoena my documents or testimony. In rare instances, I am forced to honor such subpoenas.

If you or others are in danger, I may need to take action to ensure that you are safe. Additionally, if your provider suspects abuse of children, elderly, or disabled, I am required to report their concerns to the appropriate protective services.

If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, you should immediately call 911.
