All communication and new client requests should be directed to [email protected]. Please include a few relevant details about what's going on for you and what you're hoping to get help with working on.
I'll respond to these with whatever I can based on what you've written, including if I think there may be a fit or not, or if there are any resources I'd recommend for you if we don't get to work together. If it seems like there may be a fit, I'll extend an offer and give you the choice of either a first paid session or a free 20 min consultation.
IMPORTANT: If I have not responded within 3 business days, chances are I either have scheduled time off away from my computer, or I missed your message. If that's the case, I do apologize. I monitor my email quite closely but am not perfect. Please do not hesitate to resend the message or send a followup. I never take these personally, so do not hesitate if I have failed in my desire to manage all my email in a timely manner. I do aim to respond to every message received, so if I have not, do not assume I have seen it.
A Free 20 minute consultation is often the best way to begin determining if there's a good fit. To me, a good fit means we could work well together, I'm confident I can help you, and you feel great about it too. If any of these elements are missing, I will recommend you find another therapist or resource and wish you the best.
Life is too short to give up on overcoming important problems; but it's definitely too short to be trying to find a good therapist and stop short of a good fit. I know the search is not fun, but it is absolutely worth it. I'm in no hurry to work with a mass of clients. I'm interested in doing my best work with clients who I can uniquely and most effectively help.
A final note - my job is to assist you dramatically in a very high-leverage, important way based on your values and goals. This occasionally means I'm in your corner for several months or even a few years, and if often means I'm only in your life for a few months. Also common, clients will jump in and out of my practice over the years as they face new challenges and build upon the foundation we've already begun together.
I'm never going to over-recommend therapy. I don't believe in a mandatory amount or cadence of sessions. Not only are finances finite, but so is your time. I aim to be a tremendously helpful resource to you, and you are the ultimate decider of how and how much you utilize this resource. I support your decisions here 100%, and if I disagree, I'll tell you so, along with my reasons why and my complete support of your decision either way. Deciding to work with me after a free consultation will feel much the same. I'll give you my take, and honor your decision.
If you're ready to schedule a free consultation, go ahead and shoot me an email with a bit about what you're dealing with, and I'll get back with you shortly.
