Our Services
Initial Consultation
Online or in person in Richmond, this is for individuals seeking a one-time or short-term assessment or consultation, or for those wishing to complete an initial assessment to establish care in the form of longer-term psychotherapy. An initial consultation helps us develop a collaborative care plan and ensure that we are the right fit to address your needs and goals.
Common referrals for one-time or short-term consultation typically include adjustment to parenthood, fertility struggles, parenting stress specific to having a child with medical or psychiatric challenges, adjustment to a stressor or transition, and desire to build new coping strategies when pre-parenthood strategies are no longer accessible. These may also be helpful for individuals who are not interested in long-term therapy but would like some introductory guidance or objective perspective.
Consultation will include completion of online questionnaires, an in-depth assessment, discussion and care coordination with your other providers if indicated, and recommendations for next steps and services.

Individual Psychotherapy
Online or in person in Richmond, short-term psychotherapy may range from a few sessions to up to several months of weekly visits depending on the presenting concerns and desired scope of care.
Initial consultation/assessment is required to clarify diagnosis and create a collaborative treatment plan with clear goals of care.
Scope of psychotherapy will be focused on the presenting concern or stressor, and will be personalized to address the individual’s treatment goals and broader circumstances.
Interventions may include but are not limited to cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, motivational interviewing, dialectical behavior therapy, radically open dialectical behavior therapy, and exploration of psychodynamic and relational themes.
We tend not to be the best practice for individuals seeking a therapist for longer than 4-5 months, though we can always discuss goals and expertise during the initial phone screen.
