What to Expect: Your Path to Healing

Therapy shouldn't feel like another stressful unknown. Here's exactly how we'll work together.

01

FREE CONSULTATION

Let's See If We're a Good Fit

15 minutes • Phone or Video

We'll discuss what brings you to therapy, answer your questions about my approach, and see if we're a good match. No pressure, no commitment—just an honest conversation about how I might support you.

02

INTAKE SESSION

Gathering Your Story

60 minutes • First Session

This is where we dive deeper. I'll ask about your history, current challenges, and what you hope to gain from therapy. We'll also cover practical details like confidentiality and session structure. This sets the foundation for our work together.

03

FIRST FULL SESSION

Beginning the Work

50 minutes • Weekly

Now the real work begins. We'll start exploring patterns, building coping strategies, and addressing the issues that matter most to you. Each session builds on the last, creating momentum toward your goals.

04

ONGOING THERAPY

Building Momentum

Weekly or Bi-weekly

As therapy progresses, you'll notice shifts—sometimes subtle, sometimes profound. We'll adjust our approach as needed, celebrate progress, and work through setbacks. This phase is about sustained growth and developing lasting change.

05

COMPLETION/CHECK-INS

Maintaining Progress

As Needed

When you've met your goals, we'll transition to ending regular sessions. Many clients choose periodic check-ins to maintain progress or address new challenges. The door is always open if you need support in the future.

Payment & Insurance

I accept most major insurance plans and offer private pay options. Superbills available for out-of-network reimbursement. Payment is due at time of service.

Session Format

In-person sessions available in San Antonio. Virtual sessions offered for all Texas residents via secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform.

Scheduling

Book online through our secure client portal. 24-hour cancellation policy. Most availability during weekday afternoons and select evening hours.

Confidentiality

All sessions are completely confidential and HIPAA compliant. Limited exceptions include risk of harm to self/others or court-ordered disclosure.

Still Have Questions?

What if I need to cancel?

Life happens! Just give me 24 hours notice and there's no charge. Cancellations within 24 hours are subject to the full session fee.

Do you prescribe medication?

As a therapist, I don't prescribe medication, but I work closely with psychiatrists and can provide referrals if medication might be helpful.

How long will I need therapy?

It varies. Some clients find relief in a few months, others work with me for a year or more. We'll regularly check in on your progress and adjust as needed.
