I can be contacted through the routes indicated below
or in the link at the left.
Before scheduling an appointment I usually
speak with people by telephone to answer any questions potential clients
may have about me or my practice, and to gather sufficient information
to ensure that I have the expertise to assist you with your difficulties.
People typically see me once
per week, but less frequently is common and occasionally more frequent
appointments are desired. People sometimes just consult with me about
a difficulty for one or two sessions, most engage in short-term work lasting
10-20 sessions, and some people with more longstanding difficulties or people who want to make more substantial gains in their personal growth engage in longer term therapy.
My sessions are usually one hour (50 minutes in session, 10 minutes allotted for required preparation of session notes and preparation for sessions) but longer appointments are also available.
Appointments can be arranged by referral (family physician, psychiatrist)
or can be made with me directly.
I ask that you cancel appointments with me as soon as you are aware that you need to. If you cancel by phone with 24 hours notice (over business days) there is no fee. If you phone to cancel with less than 24 hours notice, half of the regular fee will be charged. If you do not phone to cancel I will assume that you are late for the appointment, wait for you throughout the appointment time, and the full fee will be charged. Only use email to cancel appointments if there are at least a few business days prior to the appointment.
