Frequently Asked Questions

Not the usual way: I do not always put you in a standing slot at the same time every week. I keep the room open so I can be there when something real comes up, the bad day, the blowup, the decision that cannot wait. You reach out when you need to, and we get you in.

Usually fast. Reach out and you can often be on the schedule within 24 hours, frequently the same day, and if you message late at night or after hours, I aim to reach you the next morning. The whole point is that you are not sitting on a weeks-long waitlist while things get worse.

As long as the moment needs. Some things get handled in a normal session. Sometimes you need more time in one sitting, and I make room for that. We’ll discuss how to lengthen your time in therapy.

You can fill out the contact form with your contact information and a brief summary of what’s going on. If you are new, you complete a short set of intake forms online. Then I reach out to you personally to start, no front desk, no phone tree.

Both are common. A lot of people first reach out when things have boiled over, then keep working with me from there. Others come in for ongoing therapy from the start. Being reachable when things get overwhelming is how I work, not a separate track you have to choose.

All sessions begin online. Sessions happen by secure video or phone, so you can meet from somewhere private without waiting on a first available in-person slot. You do need to be physically located in Texas, Colorado, or Louisiana, since those are the states where I am licensed.

For some clients, in-person sessions are also an option. If that’s something you’re interested in, we can discuss it once we’ve connected on a video session.

Adults, individuals and couples. Most of my clients are struggling with relationships, intimacy, trust, communication, money, or a major life decision. I work with people of all genders, orientations, and relationship structures.

Relationships and communication, sex and intimacy, infidelity and rebuilding trust, and money conflict in relationships, plus the big decisions that come with all of it. If you are not sure which bucket you fall in, reach out and we will sort it out together.

Yes. I am an AASECT-certified sex therapist, and I work with desire, intimacy, arousal and performance worries, and sexual self-discovery. See the Sex Therapy page for more.

Yes. I work with couples and individuals on rebuilding trust after infidelity, and on deciding what comes next. See the Infidelity Recovery page.

Yes. When money is driving the conflict, hidden debt, financial betrayal, or who controls what, I help with the relationship side of it. See the Money and Relationship Counseling page.

Both. Sometimes both partners come in. Sometimes one person comes to work on their side of things. Either is real work, and either is welcome.

Fees depend on what you need, and I keep it straightforward. You will get the specifics when you reach out, before anything is booked.

I offer private-pay sessions and work with select insurance through third-party platforms, depending on what is available for your plan. I can also provide documentation for out-of-network reimbursement when it applies. We will go over what fits your situation when you reach out.

Yes, within the limits the law sets for any licensed therapist. If anything would ever require me to step outside that, I will explain what those limits are.

A phone or computer, a private spot, and a working phone number on the contact form. If you are a new client, the short intake forms come to your inbox to complete online before we meet.

If you are in immediate danger or experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. Therapy with me is not a crisis or emergency service.

Most people know pretty quick whether my style fits. I am direct, practical, and I am going to encourage engagement. If you want someone who will be honest with you and help you move, we will probably work well together. If you want someone to only agree with you, I am likely not your guy.

That happens, and it does not mean you are stuck. A lot can shift when one person starts working on it honestly, and we can do real work with just you in the room.

No. I am not there to hand down a verdict or pick a winner. I am there to be honest with both of you and provide skills and tools to help you figure out what you want to do.

Fair question. A lot of my clients have sat through therapy that felt like talking in circles. I work differently, direct feedback, a focus on patterns, and movement instead of endless processing. I would rather help you do something about the problem than just talk about it.
