Frequently Asked Questions

Session rates depend on the type and length of session. I offer a sliding scale for clients who need it, because cost should not be the reason someone does not get help. We can discuss rates during your free 15-minute consultation.

I ask for at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. Late cancellations and no-shows may be subject to a fee. Life happens, and I understand — just let me know as early as you can.

Yes. I offer telehealth sessions for clients located in North Carolina. Virtual sessions use a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. Many clients find telehealth just as effective as in-person sessions, and it removes the barrier of commuting.

Individual sessions are typically 50 minutes. As for how many sessions you will need, that varies. Some people come for a few months to work through a specific issue. Others find ongoing therapy helpful for longer periods. We check in regularly on your progress and adjust as needed.

During your first session, we will talk about what brought you in, what you are hoping to get out of therapy, and I will explain how I work. There is no pressure to share more than you are comfortable with.

It means your sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression are welcomed and respected — not treated as something to fix or overcome. An affirming therapist understands the unique stressors that LGBTQIA+ individuals face and creates a space where you can be fully yourself without needing to educate your therapist on the basics.
