I ask for 48-hours notice for cancellations or to reschedule an appointment. Clients who provide less than 48-hours notice, or miss their appointment without contact ("no show"), will be charged the full session fee via the credit card on file.

If you are late to session without informing me (email is best for last minute changes), I will generally text or call to check-in. A session will be deemed a no-show after 15 minutes if I am unable to make contact with you.

If you’d like to reschedule within the same day, and I have space in my schedule to accommodate, I’m happy to waive the fee.

Generally, I reserve the majority of my sliding scale spots for current clients, offered on an as-needed basis for folks facing unexpected financial hardship. We will discuss the terms of the rate together, and there may be a waitlist at times.

Currently, I do not have sliding scale spots available for new clients, but hope to in the near future. 

We may run into each other out in the world. If we do happen to cross paths, I will not approach or acknowledge you without your initiation, as part of my commitment to maintain your confidentiality. If you do initiate contact, I will generally keep it brief and may choose to quietly leave the space out of respect for our professional relationship, depending on the context.

I may reach out via email afterwards to check-in, depending on the nature of how we crossed paths. This is intended to create a compassionate space for any feelings or concerns our run-in may have brought up for you.

I am a human who makes mistakes, overlooks things, and may sometimes miss the mark. I am eager to hear feedback in service of creating deeper safety and trust together, and I want to facilitate repair whenever it's needed. 

It's not uncommon for relationship dynamics that you experience in your life to reoccur in a therapeutic relationship. In therapy, we have a unique opportunity to process these dynamics at play (while I also hold that not all hurt/harm in therapy is a "projection”). My aim is, first and foremost, to be accountable to you for my actions and behaviour, and we may also look to connect what’s coming up between us to broader themes or concerns in your life.
