FAQ
These are some answers to common questions that may come up as you explore the idea of psychotherapy, with me or any other clinician. My hope is to normalize (and hopefully calm) some of the anxieties that come with therapy and demystify the stigma around seeing a psychotherapist, whether for healing or for growth. Have a question that isn't answered? Send me your question!
