New to Real Talk Therapy?

Welcome!!

Becoming a New Patient
If you’re interested in starting therapy, please begin by filling out the Contact Form with your name, phone number, email address, and a brief description of why you are seeking therapy.

Once submitted, you’ll receive a secure welcome email from Headway (our billing and scheduling partner) or from my EHR system SimplePractice (used for self-paying clients). This will guide you in setting up your client portal, where you can:

  • Verify your insurance coverage (Headway clients only)
  • Set up your preferred payment method
  • Select your appointment availability
  • Complete required intake paperwork
  • Review telehealth instructions for virtual sessions

I also accept self-paying clients directly through SimplePractice, which offers a secure and convenient way to manage intake forms, payments, and telehealth sessions.

For those seeking affordable care, I am a proud member of the Open Path Collective. Open Path members referred through their network may qualify for my reduced-rate sliding scale. To access this, you must join Open Path, select me from their directory, and follow their referral process.

This process keeps everything simple, secure, and streamlined so we can focus on what matters most—your care.
