Treatment timelines are based on the client’s goals and personal satisfaction. As a clinician, I evaluate progress on a 6 month basis. Every 6 months, symptoms and goals will be reviewed and updated.

All clients are entitled to confidentiality, even adolescents. I am fully transparent about the limits of confidentiality, and in what situations information may have to be disclosed to parents to maintain safety. If parents request updates on their child’s treatment, the client will be informed and will collaborate with their clinician to determine what information they are comfortable disclosing to parents outside of sessions.

Yes! I am open to connecting with other professionals to ensure continuity of care for clients. Examples of professionals I may collaborate with: psychiatrists, primary care physicians, family/couples counselors

I am experienced in working with clients who have a history of self harm or suicidal ideation. I collaborate with clients to create safety plans, and am transparent about how safety will be prioritized in crisis situations. I appreciate when clients are comfortable enough to be honest with me.

Yes. Clients may choose to pause treatment for many reasons. As symptoms improve, clients may choose to decrease frequency of sessions, or take a 1-3 month pause to see how life feels without therapy. At the end of the pause, I collaborate with clients to determine whether they’d like to resume treatment or be discharged.

If a client is working on improving interpersonal functioning, it may be appropriate to have a specific person join us occasionally to address a specific concern. I am able to mediate conversations to ensure that all parties involved feel supported. I provide boundaries plans to help clients establish clear expectations with loved ones.
