Common Questions
How Do I Make An Appointment?
I offer a free phone consultation to help you get a sense of my approach and to decide if you’d like to make an appointment. Please contact me at 207-883-7706.
My voicemail is confidential so please leave a message with your name and call back number as well as the best times to reach you. I usually return calls within 24 hours.How many therapy sessions will I need?
The length of treatment is as unique as every individual, couple, or family. Due to the wide variety of presenting issues, it is difficult to generalize about the duration of therapy.
The treatment process is collaborative and clients are encouraged to take an active role. We work together to determine a mutually agreed upon treatment plan.I offer time-limited individual therapy (e.g. 8 week Grief and Trauma Intervention) and time-limited group therapy (e.g. 12 week Restorative Retelling Group for Traumatic Loss).
What is your Cancellation Policy?
Payment is required for missed appointments unless 24-hour prior notification is given. Illness, weather conditions, and other extraordinary circumstances are taken into consideration.
Do you accept credit cards?
Yes, I take all major credit cards.
I also accept cash and checks.Do you take insurance?
I accept most insurance plans. Please check with your insurance carrier to determine the extent of your plan’s coverage and to obtain pre-authorization, if necessary.
