Counseling #
What does counseling look like? #
Individuals #
As a default, I recommend 75-minute sessions every week.
When will I see results?
It depends on your individual situation and goals. Some clients get complete relief in three hours or less. Other clients may need tens of hours of work to begin to approach goals.
Couples & Dyads #
As a default, I recommend 90-minute sessions every week.
When will I see results?
Quick results are unlikely. Couples counseling typically takes more time compared to work with individuals.
The duration and frequency of therapy can vary depending on your needs and motivation. During the no-fee consultation, we’ll decide together what is the best fit. 😃
Location #
I see clients by video 📹 or audio-only 🎙️. For individual therapy, you may prefer audio-only ☎.1 When working with dyads, video is highly recommended.2
I hail from Oregon (near California).3 As I am not licensed, I can work with anyone, anywhere in the world (time-zone permitting). 🌎
Notes #
-
In the classical approach to psychotherapy, the client lies on a couch 🛋️ and does not look the therapist directly in the eye 👀 while speaking. ↩︎
-
If you find my face distracting then I can turn off my video, but I need eyes on your video feeds to watch for nonverbal cues. ↩︎
