You may also be able to submit these statements to your flexible spending account. Please call your insurance company ahead of time to inquire about reimbursement for mental health services.

CONFIDENTIALITY

In general, everything discussed between client and therapist is protected by law as confidential. However, there are some specific scenarios in which I am mandated by law to break that confidentiality.

Exceptions include:

  • Suspected abuse or neglect of a child under 18 years of age

  • Suspected abuse or neglect of an elderly adult 65 years of age or older

  • Suspected abuse or neglect of a dependent adult 18 years of age or oder

  • If a client is threatening to harm himself or herself (The therapist will make every effort to enlist client cooperation in their own safety. If they do not cooperate and the therapist believes they are a danger to themselves the therapist will take further measures to ensure the client’s safety)

  • If a client threatens serious bodily harm to another person

HOW DO I KNOW IF YOU’RE A GOOD FIT FOR ME?

Great question, research shows this is one of the most important pieces of a successful therapy experience. An initial phone consult is the first step in getting a sense of working together. If you have specific questions or concerns I suggest you jot them down ahead of time and feel welcome to ask them.

How long does therapy take to work ?

The short answer is that there is no official timeframe. Everyone is different. The reason it can be hard to give a set timeframe is that it really depends on what brings you to therapy, what you’re hoping to accomplish, what your unique life experiences have been and how much you’re willing to participate in the therapeutic process.

I find it helpful to have an initial conversation on this topic to ensure we’re beginning our work on the same page.

Do you see couples?

At this time I do not see couples. I know some highly skilled clinicians locally that I would be more than happy to refer you to.
