Q: How long is a session?
A:  Sessions can be either 50 or 90 minutes, depending on your relationship and monetary needs. I recommend that the initial session with a couple be 90 minutes.
 
Q: How do I get started?
A: Call me for a free brief initial consultation on the phone, and we can discuss the issues you are facing. From this conversation, we can get a sense of how we fit together as a therapeutic team. If we have the sense that I am the right counselor for you, we will set up an appointment for your first session. If we do work together, I will give you my full commitment to help you to create a fulfilling, secure and nourishing relationship.
 
Q: What kind of guarantees do you offer?
A: I guarantee that I will energetically work together with you to help you achieve your goals, utilizing the same skill set and knowledge base that has enabled me to successfully help so many others. Results vary from person to person. A large factor in counseling success will be your level of commitment and your willingness to be honest with yourself, as well as with your therapist. I will be happy to talk with you more about how to increase the chances of your getting the results you want.
 
Q: How often shall I expect to come?
A: Most clients come in once a week, as that regularity is conducive to progress.
 
Q: Do you work with gay and lesbian clients?
A: Yes, I do.
