Getting Started
If you are interested in discussing the possibility of working together, contact me using one of the contact forms on this site or click the button at the top right schedule a free phone consultation. This will allow us to briefly discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and whether what I offer may be a good fit.
If we decide to proceed, we will then schedule an intake session. This first session is an opportunity for us to discuss your reasons for seeking therapy in greater depth, and continue the process of determining if working together will be a good fit.
