How do we get started?

As a component of the initial evaluation you are required to complete several forms prior to your first appointment including a New Patient Intake, Insurance/Demographics Information, a Treatment Consent/HIPPA form , Telehealth Consent, and a copy of Office Policies, & Crisis Resources.

If applicable, you may also be asked to complete a Controlled Substance Agreement and release of information (ROI) form.

Do you offer face to face appointments?

Currently, I am offering only telehealth services. In-person appointments may be available in the future, however with respect to current Covid-19 protocols, this option remains closed for the time being.

A HIPPA compliant platform is used for the entirety of the appointment to ensure confidentiality and privacy.

Please have access to a private space for telehealth appointments to ensure the confidentiality of any information we discuss and to maintain the integrity of the therapeutic relationship. A robust internet connection will be required connect for the appointment.
