Intake Forms

NOTE FOR ALL WEBSITE GUESTS AND/OR POTENTIAL NEW CLIENTS:

The first three visits to my office or telehealth sessions are for an evaluation to see if my practice is appropriate for your needs and for us to establish a treatment relationship.

In addition, any communication between website guests and this therapist, or downloading forms from this site, does not guarantee that a treatment relationship will be established. While in my office, or via telehealth sessions, if it is determined that my services do not meet your needs, I will offer several referrals to you to explore. I do not offer therapy services via this website. I offer telehealth via telephone or HIPAA compliant Zoom. Please note that although efforts are made for encrypted security, telehealth sessions are not able to be as secure as in office meetings.
