Therapy can last anywhere from a few months to several years, depending on the goals and needs of the client.

Many of my individual adult clients come to therapy to address long-standing patterns and thus make the investment of longer-term, depth therapy work.

For children, therapy usually lasts between six months and two years, depending on a large variety of factors.

I am happy to give you a more specific estimate based on your goals and presenting issues during a consultation call or initial visit.

I tend to be genuine, grounded, open, curious, present, active, collaborative and engaged. I make use of humor and lightness as well as being with my clients as they explore harder emotions and experiences. Clients describe me as warm, accepting, consistent and non-judgemental.

Sessions are different for everyone, but in general you can expect to have a space to talk (or, in the case of kids, play) about whatever feels important to you in the moment. I offer questions and comments to encourage deeper reflection.

Great question and one that I invite you to ask me again on a consultation call.

It is important that you feel safe and comfortable bringing your whole self into the therapy room. I welcome any questions you have in determining how and if that is possible with me.

I am a white, American-born, cisgender, female-identifying, monolingual English speaker.

I work with people with a wide range of identities including LGBTQ+, straight, BIPOC, white, ethnic and multi-ethnic people, people with disabilities, people with traditional and alternative family and/or relationship structures, spiritual, religious and nonreligious people.

Another great question!

There is a parking lot and clients can expect to find a spot close to the entrance of the building. There is one accessible parking spot with a sidewalk ramp.

My office is on the second floor and with a ramp or stairs that you can use.

There is a low-traffic, shared waiting area with magazines, children’s books and a small bin of toys and fidgets.

There is one bathroom that is all-gender and large enough to accommodate a parent and child.

In addition to in-person meetings, I see clients virtually over video call. This requires clients to have a private space to meet and a device that has a camera, speaker and stable internet connection.

If I have a cold and/or a client requests it, I will wear a KN-95 mask in session. I have masks available for both children and adults to wear if they are feeling sick. We can also switch an appointment to virtual in case of sickness.

There are several sound machines throughout the space that make soft, consistent fan noises. My office is lower scent, however scented cleaning products are sometimes used and people may be wearing scented products in the shared waiting area.

If you have other questions about accessibility, please ask!
