Frequently Asked Questions

Finding the right therapist is an important part of the process. I encourage you to schedule a free consultation so we can talk about what you’re looking for, what you hope to get out of therapy, and whether my approach feels like a good fit.
I work with adults (18+) who are navigating life transitions, chronic illness, grief, anxiety, depression, or burnout. Many of my clients are doing their best to keep it together while feeling emotionally drained, overwhelmed, or unsure of what comes next.
The first session is about getting to know you — your background, what’s bringing you to therapy, and what you’d like to focus on. We’ll also talk through your goals and what you hope therapy will help you achieve. There’s no pressure to share everything right away; we’ll go at your pace.
That’s completely okay. You’re in control of what you share and when. Therapy should feel safe and collaborative — we’ll work together to build trust so that, when you’re ready, you can explore things more deeply at your own comfort level.
Yes! I offer a free consultation to ensure we’re a good fit and answer any questions before you begin. You can reach out directly through my contact form. Once I receive your message, I’ll get back to you within 24–48 business hours to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Most clients start with weekly sessions to build consistency and momentum. As progress is made, we can adjust to biweekly or as-needed sessions based on your goals.
It depends on your needs. Some people come in for short-term support around a specific issue, while others benefit from ongoing work. We’ll regularly check in to make sure therapy continues to meet your goals.
All sessions are currently held virtually, allowing you to attend from the comfort of your home or any private space in Texas.
I ask for at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged the full session fee of $175.
Sometimes! We might use journaling prompts, mindfulness exercises, or gentle self-reflection tools to support your goals between sessions.

Virtual therapy (also called telehealth) allows us to meet online through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. It offers the same level of care and connection as in-person sessions, with added flexibility and convenience.
Find a quiet, private space where you feel comfortable talking. Headphones can help reduce distractions. You’ll receive a secure link before your session — just click and join from your computer, tablet, or phone.
For virtual therapy sessions, you must be physically located in Texas at the time of each appointment. Even if you reside elsewhere, I’m only able to provide services to clients who are in Texas during our sessions due to state licensure regulations.
If you’re unsure whether this applies to you, feel free to reach out and I’m happy to clarify.
Yes. Research shows online therapy can be just as effective as in-person care, especially when you feel comfortable in your own space.
Online therapy offers flexibility and convenience, letting you attend sessions from anywhere in Texas without travel or scheduling stress. It can help you stay consistent, especially when managing chronic illness, life transitions, or a busy schedule. Many clients also find that being in a familiar environment makes it easier to feel safe, focused, and fully present during sessions.

You may notice small changes first - feeling more aware, lighter, or hopeful. We’ll check in regularly to track progress together.
Every therapist and approach is different. My goal is to meet you where you are move at your pace, and create a space that feels safe and effective for you.
