FAQ
How do I set up an appointment?
Your choice – call and leave me a message or email me. I will get back to you ASAP and we can discuss our fit, financial/insurance or other questions and the next steps.
What will the first appointment be like?
We will meet for 50-60min and, most importantly, find out what has brought you to my office. I will answer any questions you might have about me, how I work and how we might work together. We will also go over some history and go through some business – clarify insurance coverage, co-pays etc. I will ask some questions to begin the thorough assessment of your situation and will continue this in the following sessions.
Do you have evening hours? I work or go to school during the day.
Since I work with many adults and adolescents that have a hard time coming during the day, I do have some evening hours. Those fill up quickly though, so if they aren’t available when you contact me, we will work towards getting you an evening time. People often choose, however, to come over their lunch hour, go late into work/school or leave early so we can get started right away.
Where do I park?
There is 2 hr free parking throughout Linden Hills and the surrounding neighborhoods. Please don’t park in 15min spots next to the building UNLESS it is Monday, and be sure to not block or be too close to any driveways.
What is all this talk of yoga? I just want normal therapy!
No worries, I will not bombard you with yoga or expect it to even be a regular part of our work together. I do, however, find yoga to be very powerful as a partner to traditional psychotherapy. Moving the body and connecting brain and body can get to underlying issues that talking simply can’t reach. But you are the boss – we will only utilize yoga as you are comfortable and if it makes sense.
