Frequently Asked Questions

---

 Generally, we will meet every week for fifty minutes and focus solely on your concerns. We will be a team working together on your behalf. Sometimes I may be quiet, but often we will be having a conversation. I won't just sit there and not say anything unless this is the right thing to do and sometimes, it is. You might experience a range of feelings - from sadness to anger to relief. We might laugh together, too. You can expect to feel understood and to make progress on your concerns. Occasionally, I might remind you that progress does not always follow a straight line.
 

This is a great question and like many great questions, is hard to answer. The length of therapy depends on what you want to work on, how long it has been a concern, what you have tried on your own, and other complicating factors that we might not know about until we get started.

Yes, We take SelectHealth (BrightPath and Navigator plans), Pacific Source Plans, Sana Benefits, Mountain Health Coop, Regence, and Blue Cross Blue Shield Plans. 
 

This is another excellent question. You are done with therapy when you have reached the goals you set for yourself and can sustain your changes without seeing me. Generally, I don't mention stopping, but wait for you to bring it up. Then we talk about your progress, your reasons for stopping now, etc. I might agree or disagree, but either way, we will talk about it. The decision to stop or continue is up to you.
