Frequently Asked Questions
Who do you work with?
I work with new moms, women and couples of all walks of life — LGBTQIA, folks of color, and folks of other marginalized identities — and encourage you to bring your whole self to therapy.
As an ever-aspiring anti-racist practitioner, it’s essential to me to support my BIPOC clients in feeling seen, held, and understood within the context of the unequal power, privilege, and oppression that shape our world. I aspire to support and create safe space for my clients, and always welcome feedback as to how to ever-better see, respect, and support you in your wholeness and complexity.
How long is each session, and what are your fees?
Individual sessions are 50 minutes for $135, or 75 minutes for $160.
Couples sessions are 50 minutes for $160, or 75 minutes for $200.
Some clients appreciate the extended sessions of 75 minutes either when they’re in a particularly tough place, and could use more support, or simply because the increased spaciousness allows their nervous systems to unwind and respond with more ease. Couples in particular often request longer sessions.
I have several sliding scale spots, and offer them as they become available.
What are your hours?
Monday through Friday between 10am and 5pm. To balance work with family and raising a little one, I don’t currently work evenings or weekends.
Cancellations
To support both of us in having predictability in our scheduling, I request 24 hours notice of cancellation, and will offer the same at a minimum. I otherwise charge my full fee for the session missed.
How often would we meet?
To establish safety and trust between us, and to develop momentum in our work, I like to meet with clients either weekly or every other week to start. This is what allows us to get to know each other, and you start to see and feel changes in your life. After 4-8 weeks, some clients who are currently weekly will feel ready to move to biweekly. After working together for some time, some clients will choose to see me for "maintenance" on a less frequent basis. The frequency of our work is something we discuss together, and we co-create a plan that works best for you. You are always free to discontinue therapy for any reason.
Where is your office?
115 NE 7th Avenue
Gainesville, FL 32601
I am currently meeting clients in-person at this location on Mondays only. It’s a beautiful old Victorian, right across the street from the Thomas Center. You can park in the lot or on the street, and go for a walk under the oak trees when you’re done. Unfortunately, it is not handicap accessible.
Do you take insurance?
No. I do not bill insurance companies directly, but I can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for my services as an out of network provider. It’s important to call and confirm with your insurance company in advance that they will reimburse you for my services. If they do, you will then pay me directly, submit the superbill I provide you to your insurance, and be reimbursed by your insurance company.
Do you offer a free consultation?
Why yes I do! I offer a 20 minute consultation by phone for me to get to learn more about you, for you to get to ask any questions, and for both of us to get to see if therapy together feels like a good fit.
Telehealth (Online Sessions)
Clients across Florida are welcome to meet with me via telehealth. We use Doxy, a user-friendly, HIPAA-compliant service similar to Zoom. This way, you can meet with me from the comfort of your own home, office, or even (parked) car - cars are great for privacy! - so long as I know where you are located.
