The first step is
often the hardest one.

We start with the basics. What's been happening, what you'd like to be different, what you've tried before. We will balance getting to know each other and developing a plan with helping you to feel better as quickly and efficiently as we can. Clients often leave an initial session with a clearer sense of what they want to focus on and how things might be different for them.

Everyone is different. Some clients work with us for a few sessions on a specific concern; others stay in long-term work because they benefit from the connection and a consistent, trusted support. What makes sense is something we discuss as part of your goals and what fits best for you.

We don't bill insurance directly, but we provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Most clients are surprised by how much OON benefits cover — call your insurance and ask about your out-of-network mental health coverage. We can walk you through what to ask.

Rates vary by service type and currently range from $100 to $300 per hour. Before getting started, we'll review the rate for the service you're considering so you know exactly what to expect.

All sessions are telehealth. We're licensed in Virginia, Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Florida — clients in any of those four areas can work with us. Telehealth is genuinely as effective as in-person for the work we do, and the convenience makes consistency easier.

Yes, this usually depends on what we are working on. Family work is one of our specialties. We will discuss how this aligns with your goals and integrate this into your care.

We ask for 24 hours notice. With that said, we also understand that life happens and we work with people as much as we can.
