The Practical Side of Healing Work
-
That's okay. Many of my clients are new. I move at your pace and welcome your questions.
-
Fit is relational. The consultation helps us mutually explore alignment.
-
After our call, we’ll set your intake appointment together, and you’ll receive your paperwork by email.
For follow-ups, we’ll book one session at a time, making space for what you need most in each stage of our work.
-
To offer relational, grounded work, I limit the number of clients I see. This supports sustainability and care.
-
Because I want to keep your care private and centered on what matters most to you. When insurance is involved, they require a clinical diagnosis and can review treatment records, which may limit what we focus on to what they consider “medically necessary.” This gives a third party a say in what we can address together.
By working outside of insurance, you and I decide the direction of our work so it can truly support your goals.
-
Because assessments for short- or long-term disability claims or FMLA paperwork require an objective, unbiased, and detached assessor, they are the opposite of my role as a therapist, which is to be warm, empathic, and engaged in your care. These assessments also involve providing a legal definition of disability and conducting extensive investigative interviewing, practices that are not part of my therapeutic approach.
I may consider leave documentation if it only requires a psychological diagnosis and verification of treatment attendance.
-
Because this work is intentional and paced, I’m not equipped to provide emergency or crisis support. If you're in need of immediate care, I can help connect you with resources that are better suited to support you in this moment.
