My fee is $300 for a 50 minute individual therapy, consultation or Supervision session. 

$355 for a 50 minute Couples Therapy session. 

For 3+ people in a Relationship Session, a minimum of 60 minutes together is required for $385.

I also offer 60 & 75 minute sessions depending on my schedule. Lets discuss this option if you are interested in longer session times.

I work with clients on a weekly or bi-weekly basis.

This is one of the hardest questions to answer! At minimum 1 - 2years as this type of therapy takes time. Its deep self & life changing work I do with clients.

It also depends on what you are looking for support around, if you’ve done therapy before, have a trauma history and so many other factors. The work I do is typically long term and  in depth. It's not formulaic or a set number of sessions.  We can talk more about your unique circumstances in your consultation and first few sessions.

Research from the Journal of the American Medical Association as well as the National Institute of Health (among many others), demonstrates that a minimum of 1 year of weekly sessions (50 sessions), frequently extending to 2–3 years or more for complex patterns. Studies also show a clear dose-response relationship; Meaning clients gains continue to compound the longer they remain in therapy that endure and grow years after the therapy ends.

I have a No Cancellation Policy; instead we reschedule appointments within the week before, during, or week after the initial booking, allowing a generous three-week window. You also get two free cancellations per year. This pacing allows for the consistency and frequency needed in your therapy to get the relief and results needed.

For any subsequent missed appointments not rescheduled, clients are charged the full session fee. Video options provide flexibility, and an online scheduler simplifies appointment changes.

If you need to reschedule, please let me know as much in advance as possible. If you provide less than 48 hours notice, do not show up or have used 2 free cancellations, you will be charged a full session fee- no exceptions.

Good Question! Consults give us a sense of fit - how I show up there is how I am in sessions too. I get to know how you show up too, what's bringing you to seek therapy and if I am trained and qualified to help you. AND a consult is brief so it typically takes between 3 to 10 sessions to really know if a therapist is the right fit for you.

I hold sessions during daytime hours ending at 430pm with 1 evening spot per week  at 440pm.

In your first few appointments, we go slow, starting to get to know one another. I listen attentively to what you are coming to therapy for, assessing the challenges, learning your relational, bodily, family and cultural experiences and history.
