New Patients

Your First Appointment

During your first appointment we will spend time beginning to understand your goals, completing paper work, and assessing if we are a good fit to work together. I will ask you about what brings you to therapy and get information about your history.

FAQ

Do you prescribe medications?
I do not prescribe medications or diagnose physical conditions. If you or I think that medication could be helpful for you then I will provide you a referral to a psychiatrist or nurse practitioner for an evaluation. I have specialty training in collaborative care and I am committed to coordinating your care with your other providers to give you the best care possible.

Do I need a referral?
Some insurance plans require a referral from your Primary Care Physician. Please make sure that a referral is in place before our first meeting if your insurance plan requires one or you may be responsible for paying for sessions out of pocket.
