 Everyone’s needs are different, and therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Some clients attend weekly sessions, while others prefer bi-weekly or monthly support. I also work with clients on an as-needed basis after regular therapy has ended. Sessions are available both in-person and virtually, or as a flexible hybrid. Together, we’ll decide what best supports your comfort, consistency, and goals.

Individual therapy sessions start at $160/session. For more information on couples/group rates, contact us. 

Session payments may be made using all major credit cards, HSA/FSA cards, or through most major health insurance plans. We can discuss payment and insurance options in more detail one on one to find the best option for you. 

I work with clients ages 13 and older. If you’re looking for a pediatric therapist, I recommend Pleasant Psychology in Mount Pleasant, which specializes in working with children and adolescents.

 Yes. Confidentiality is one of the most important parts of the therapeutic relationship. What you share in session stays between us, and you’ll receive informed consent paperwork outlining exactly how your privacy is protected. I will never share information with anyone, including other providers, without your written permission.

There are, however, a few legal and ethical exceptions where I may be required to disclose information to help keep you or others safe. As a mandated reporter, I am required to act if:

• There is suspected abuse or neglect of a child, elder, or vulnerable adult
• You are at serious risk of harming yourself or someone else

If these situations ever arise, we will navigate them together with care and transparency whenever possible.

Your first session is a chance for us to slow down, get to know each other, and begin exploring what brought you to therapy. 

We’ll discuss:

• What’s been feeling difficult lately
• What you hope to change or better understand
• Your goals for therapy
• Relevant background information from your intake paperwork

I’ll guide the conversation with thoughtful questions, but never in an overwhelming or rapid-fire way. You’re always welcome to share at your own pace and ask me questions, too.

There’s no universal timeline for therapy. Some clients meet their goals within a few months, while others continue therapy for years as part of ongoing support and self-care.

My goal is to support you for as long as therapy feels helpful and meaningful to you. When you feel confident in the progress you’ve made, we’ll collaboratively discuss whether it feels like the right time to reduce sessions or wrap up our work together. Some clients pause therapy and return later during periods of transition or increased stress, and I’m always happy to reconnect when needed.

Ending therapy is always a collaborative decision. I will never simply tell you, “I think you’re done.” At the same time, I may gently reflect when I notice growth and ask how you feel about spacing sessions out or taking a pause.

When we decide together that it’s time to end therapy, I typically recommend a closing session to reflect on your growth, process the ending, and discuss next steps.

Great question! I call this seeing your therapist in the wild. If we happen to run into each other outside the office, I’ll follow your lead. To protect your privacy and confidentiality, I won’t initiate contact or acknowledge our therapeutic relationship unless you choose to.

If you say hello, I’m always happy to say hi back. And if you’d rather not interact, that’s completely okay too. Your comfort and privacy will always come first.

Your appointment time is reserved specifically for you. I require at least 48 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling requests. Without 48 hours’ notice the full session fee of $160 will be charged. No-shows are also charged the full fee. That said, life happens. I offer one grace late cancellation or no-show per client. After that, late cancellations, reschedules, and no-shows will be charged in full, and of course, exceptions may be made in cases of emergency or sudden illness at my discretion.
