Your Questions, Answered

Therapy can feel like a big step. This page is here to make the process feel more transparent, grounded, and approachable.

Important note about fees and platforms:
If you book through SonderMind, Grow Therapy, Headway, or Rula, those appointments are insurance-based only. My SimplePractice portal is the only place where I offer private-pay sessions, out-of-pocket payment options, and sliding scale availability.

  • Your first session is a space to get oriented and begin building a sense of safety and connection. We’ll talk about what is bringing you in, what you are hoping for, and move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. There is no pressure to share everything right away. This is a collaborative process.

  • Fit matters in therapy. You are welcome to reach out with questions before scheduling, and we can use the first session to get a sense of whether this feels like a supportive and aligned space for you. If it does not, I am happy to help guide you toward other options.

  • Yes, I offer a limited number of sliding scale spots through my SimplePractice private-pay portal. We’ll choose a sustainable fee together and revisit it as needed.

  • Yes—through SonderMind, Grow Therapy, Headway, and Rula (insurance-only).
    For private pay or sliding scale, you’ll schedule through SimplePractice.

  • All sessions are currently virtual (telehealth).

  • You must be physically in Georgia at the time of each session.

  • Please provide 24 hours’ notice. Late cancellations or missed sessions outside of the first time are charged a $65 fee.

  • That is completely normal. Starting therapy can feel unfamiliar or vulnerable at first. We will move at a pace that feels manageable for you, and you are always in control of what you choose to share. You do not have to feel fully ready. Often, readiness grows as safety and trust begin to build. You only need enough willingness to begin.

  • If you are in immediate danger or need urgent support, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. You can also call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

  • If you are unsure where to start, have questions about fit, or want clarity about fees, insurance, or scheduling, you are welcome to reach out through the contact form.
