Practice Policies
48-Hour Cancellation: Cancellations with less than 48 hours’ notice are charged the full session fee. Insurance companies do not cover missed sessions or late cancellations, therefore the fee is the responsibility of the client.
Late Arrivals: Sessions end at the scheduled time, using whatever duration remains.
Illness Adjustments: In-person sessions can switch to video or phone if you are feeling unwell.
Communication & Safety
Administrative Email: Email is reserved for scheduling and logistics. Therapeutic processing happens exclusively in session to give your care the focus it deserves. Expect a response within 24 business hours.
Crisis Support: I do not offer emergency services between sessions. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, call 911, or go to the nearest emergency room.
