Frequently Asked Questions

  • Some people believe that their problems aren’t serious enough for therapy. If you have something bothering you, it is important enough to reach out for support. Therapy has many benefits. It can help you better understand yourself and others. It can help you manage your stress and improve your physical health. Therapy can also help you feel more confident and satisfied with your life.

    Your mental health matters, and you deserve to be healthy and happy!

  • I will send you my new client forms electronically to complete prior to our first appointment. We will review the forms, which include background information about you as well as information regarding the process of therapy, during our first meeting.

    The focus of our first appointment is to begin to get to know one another and confirm that we are a good fit to work well together. I will ask lots of questions about you, including your history, your current concerns that brought you into therapy, your goals, and your current coping skills. The first appointment is different from future sessions, which will be more focused on specific topics and goals. At the end of the session, we will discuss appointment frequency and schedule our next time to meet.

  • My physical office is located in the north Atlanta/Vinings area. To find my office, turn into the parking lot of the office complex. I am in Building 900, which is the first building on your left.

    However, if you are interested in attending online therapy, I am able to work with anyone located in the state of Georgia.

  • I use SimplePractice’s HIPAA compliant platform for online sessions. You will receive an emailed link to the platform approximately 15 minutes before our scheduled appointment. Online sessions are 50 minutes in length and are a great alternative if you are unable to attend therapy in-person.

  • Length of therapy varies by individual. Most of my clients begin with weekly sessions and then decrease their frequency of sessions over time. Some clients remain in therapy for a few months, while others remain in therapy for years. We will work together to create an individualized treatment plan based on your needs and determine the amount of time that is right for you.

  • I offer 50 minute individual sessions for $180.

    Payment can be made in the form of cash, HSA or FSA card, or with a major debit/credit card.

  • I am an in-network provider with Aetna.

    If you would like to use your out-of-network benefits, I can provide you with a receipt called a superbill to submit for reimbursement.

    I have partnered with Mentaya to help you save money on therapy. Use this link to see if you can use your out-of network benefits and get reimbursed for therapy:
