FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I traditionally start off with a free 10 to 25 minute phone call or video conferencing consultation whereby I introduce myself, obtain an understanding of the individual or families therapy goals, and explain my process and approach. This allows potential clients to “try before they buy” and experience the therapy process without any pressure or obligation. The free consultation allows the client and I to determine if we are a good fit
