Absolutely not.

I work with individuals seeking full sobriety as well as those seeking harm reduction or navigating relationship challenges caused by their addictive habits.

I do ask that you approach sessions with honesty. If you are choosing to continue, please be transparent about this with me so that we can navigate your goals together.

I do require that you are sober during session so that we can engage fully together and for your informed consent. If your addiction is to a substance and you appear intoxicated during session I will inquire on your use and be required to end session.

I accept many insurances as well as private pay clients.

Your exact cost per session will vary based on your insurance plan coverage. A cost estimate will be run prior to services in order to ensure transparency in estimated cost.
My private pay cost for those clients who prefer not to utilize their insurance benefits is $150 per therapy hour (50 minute session).

Please see “Do I have to stop using” above.

Your goals in therapy are driven by you. In your initial session, and routinely after that, we will assess why you were motivated to come, what your goals are, and how to get to those goals.

If you have an outside individual pressuring you to make a certain decision, then your choice to not comply may have implications on your relationship with them or with the law. I will encourage you to weigh and discuss those possible implications when creating your goals.

If you have active legal involvement or a PO it is possible that they may want documentation from me to prove that you are continuing to receive therapy services. I would be happy to provide this documentation with your consent in order to keep you in good standing. That being said, unless you give your consent, 42 CFR Part 2 protects you. Without your written consent, I would require a court order.

Unfortunately no. I am unable to work with you while I am already working with a loved one.

It is ok if you know another of my clients as an acquaintance from past treatment centers, sober living, or substance use.

Should your loved one discharge from my services, I require a three-month waiting period before I am able to begin supporting you.
