How to Begin:
I offer a complimentary fifteen-minute phone consultation before setting up any initial appointment. During this call you’ll have time to ask me questions, share what you would like to work on in therapy, and get to know me. Because it is important to feel comfortable and understood, if you decide to make an appointment I’ll be checking back in with you to make sure that we’re a good match and working well together.
