**NOT ACCEPTING NEW COUNSELING CLIENTS AT THIS TIME**
counseling mission
To cultivate respectful spaces where clients can safely explore, grow, and heal by experiencing emotions in new ways.
Counseling process
You can request a complimentary consultation (20min.) if you are a potential new client so we can chat and address any questions or concerns you may have prior to a first session, and make sure we’re a good fit for counseling work.
During the assessment process (our first few sessions together), we'll collaboratively co-determine some healthy goals. You'll recognize that our counseling work together is complete when your goals have been achieved.
For most clients, typical counseling work with me looks like 1hr weekly sessions to begin. As clients begin to achieve some of their initial goals and feel more confident, it is common to switch to bi-weekly sessions, then eventually move to monthly before termination.
Intensive weekend workshops for couples are 9am-4pm (w/ 1hr lunch break) Saturday and Sunday—limited by my availability. Appreciate your understanding that at this time, a direct referral is required to book a weekend intensive (e.g., your individual or couple therapist is a colleague of mine and refers you), and there is a pre-screening process to determine if the process is appropriate for your relationship. Inquire via email with any questions!
