Schedule a Free Consultation

I offer a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation so we can briefly discuss what brings you to counseling, answer any questions, and determine whether working together feels like a good fit. If you’d prefer to meet in person for your consultation, that may also be an option.

Becoming a New Client

Once we decide to move forward, you’ll receive instructions for registering through my secure client portal. You can complete intake paperwork, review practice policies, and sign consent forms online before your first appointment. I’ll also make every effort to verify your insurance benefits beforehand so you have a better understanding of expected costs.

Your First Appointment

Our first session gives us time to discuss your concerns, relevant history, and what you hope to accomplish. You don’t need to prepare anything special or know exactly what to say. We’ll identify goals and an approach that fits your needs.

In-Person and Virtual Appointments

Virtual sessions are generally available Mondays and Wednesdays; in-person sessions in Wilmington are generally available Tuesdays and Thursdays. For telehealth appointments, a secure link will be sent about 15 minutes before the session. Please join from a private, quiet location.

Ongoing Therapy

Therapy is collaborative, practical, and sometimes challenging. I’ll offer new perspectives and strategies, and we’ll revisit your goals as we go. The frequency of sessions depends on your needs.

Fees, Insurance & Policies

I accept UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Medicare, subject to plan participation and benefits. The self-pay rate for an intake or individual session is $150. Marriage and couples counseling is $150 per 55-minute session, private pay only; insurance is not billed and superbills are not provided.

Please provide at least 48 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations and missed appointments are subject to a $75 fee, consistent with applicable payer requirements.
