New Clients

If you are seeking therapy, please contact me first to see if I currently have availability. Email is the easiest way to reach me. Please include a brief description of what you would like to address in therapy so I can begin to assess if I can meet your needs.

I offer a risk-free, 60-minute initial consultation. You are under no obligation to pay for your first session unless you continue therapy with me, in which case you would pay for both the first and second sessions at the second appointment.

Prior to our first appointment, you will receive an invitation to my client portal where you can fill out the forms necessary to get started. The invitation will include information on where and how we will meet (either in-person or via telehealth).

Scheduling

I see clients Monday through Friday via telehealth from my office in Tacoma. Sessions are by appointment only. After an initial 60-minute session, I offer two standard session lengths: 60 minutes and 75 minutes. Although anyone can schedule a session of either length, 75 minute sessions are intended to accommodate couples, partners and parents and young children.

For your convenience, I offer an online scheduling system where you can schedule and change appointments. The system is available through my client portal, to which you will gain access after our initial contact. You will receive an automatic email and/or text confirmation of any scheduling changes you make, as well as a reminder prior to an upcoming appointment. Appointments can be changed or cancelled up to 24 hours prior to the scheduled time without incurring a fee. If you have any questions about scheduling, I am always happy to assist you.

Fees

My rates are as follows:

60-minute appointment - $160

75-minute appointment - $200

I do not bill insurance companies directly, but can provide a statement that you can submit to your insurance carrier for reimbursement. Please check with your payer that they cover out-of-network providers.

Please be prepared to pay in full following each session. I accept payment primarily by major credit card through Simple Practice, which uses Stripe as its payment vendor. Payments by cash or check can also be arranged.

I recognize that therapy is a significant investment of time and money. In addition to offering a risk-free initial session, I offer therapy at a reduced rate for a limited number of client slots. If my published rates pose a financial burden to you, please talk to me about fee options.
