I’m happy to talk about how this would work.

55 minutes.
Virtual or in-person?
I primarily see people virtually. I have limited availability for in-person visits in Kirkland, WA.
What is your cancellation policy?
You must cancel your appointment a minimum of 48 hours in advance or you will be charged a $100 late cancel fee. Please feel free to reach out if you have extenuating circumstances which prohibit you from being able to cancel in that timeframe and I will do my best to honor and support that.
How does paying out-of-pocket work?
If you chose to pay out of pocket for your therapy sessions, I will send you a required Good Faith Estimate that will explain what you can expect payment to be going forward and the maximum amount you can be charged.
I will provide a Super Bill that you may submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Reimbursement is at the sole discretion of the insurance provider.
How often should I come to therapy?
To start, I recommend coming weekly ideally or at least every other week. This will give us the opportunity to get to know one another, for me to get a good grasp on what you need and want. From here we will look at a projected plan for moving forward. Connection and safety in the therapeutic relationship are foundational to good work going forward.
How long can I expect to be in therapy?
This is, mostly, an impossible question to answer without more information. Ultimately, it is up to you. I can tell you that we will work together to identify your goals for therapy, where we want to start and next steps. We can take on a lot or a little. Therapy mostly leads itself as we explore and unpack what is here in the present day and what may be deeply rooted in history. For some, they want to do it all. For others, they want to work on one piece at a time. Either approach is fine. I will advise you and be your guide, but also follow your lead. Taking breaks from therapy here and there can be very helpful. It will evolve over time and I will always honor what you want.
