Reach Out
I’m here to listen and support you.
Thanks for considering working together. Whenever you’re ready, just fill out the form below, and I’ll get back to you within a day or two.
We’ll start with a brief phone chat and a chance for you to ask questions and get a sense of how I work. Then we can decide if you’d like to move forward with scheduling an appointment or take some time to think it over.

Cancellations require 48 hours’ notice so I have time to offer your spot to others on the waitlist. Cancellations with less than 48 hours’ notice are charged the full session fee. I understand that emergencies sometimes happen (illness, accidents, etc.); in those cases, I offer to reschedule within 2–3 business days if I have openings, without a fee.

I’m not able to provide emergency services. Please call 988, go to the nearest emergency room, or use other crisis resources if you need immediate help.
