Question 1

What types of trauma do you help with?

Accepted Answer

I support survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, childhood abuse, and complex trauma. We’ll move at your pace, focusing on safety and stability first.

Question 2

What can you expect in your first session?

Accepted Answer

Your first session is a gentle conversation. We’ll talk about what brings you in, what you hope for, and any history you want to share. You can pause, skip questions, or take things slowly.

Question 3

Are your sessions held online?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All sessions are held securely online. You can join from a private, comfortable place, and I’ll guide you through the setup before we begin.

Question 4

What's your pricing model?

Accepted Answer

I offer sliding-scale rates and am connected with Open Path Collective to provide affordable options for clients without insurance at a reduced rate.

Question 5

How do you know if we’re a good fit?

Accepted Answer

Feeling safe and understood matters most. You can review my approach and training on my profile, then use the first few sessions to see whether this feels right for you.

Question 6

Who is counseling best suited for?

Accepted Answer

I work with adults ages 21 to 100. If you're seeking gentle, personalized support, I’ll meet you where you are and tailor sessions to your needs.

Question 7

What if I’m not ready to share my whole story?

Accepted Answer

That’s completely okay. You don’t have to share everything at once. We’ll start with what feels safest for you, and you’ll always have control over what we discuss.

Question 8

Do you offer telehealth counseling in my state?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I offer telehealth only in Virginia, in line with licensure rules. You can meet from the privacy of your home and still receive confidential support. If you're unsure whether you're eligible, reach out and I can help you check.
