In order to receive reimbursement from insurance companies, therapists must give their clients specific diagnoses the insurance companies deem "medically necessary". These can often be inaccurate, dictate the interventions therapists can offer, and have long term consequences which could follow the client. This is against my personal and ethical values, which is why I offer sliding scale and pro bono spots for clients in need of financial assistance.

I believe the most important role I can play in the lives of my clients is supporter. As a part of a client's support system, I can play many roles including but not limited to: encourager, nurturer, accountability partner, advocate, listener, rock. I prioritize safety and rapport building to earn my place in being very direct when confronting maladaptive patterns. I use humor when appropriate, and I always do my best to make sure my clients are grounded before they leave our sessions.

I base my practice in system, multicultural/feminist, and psychodynamic theories, but I’m flexible in my approach. I use different methods from various theories to match the unique needs of each client. Mainly, I want to make sure I look at my clients as whole beings, not as problems I need to fix. I believe we're all just doing our best with what we have, so sometimes we just need to refresh our tools, get a new perspective, or make some lifestyle changes.

It is different for everyone. Some clients find they only need support for a few weeks, others months, and others years. It is my job to make sure my clients are continuing to benefit and enthusiastically consent to services, without "overstaying my welcome".

Definitely not. Even highly compatible people who love each other deeply run into sexual issues and communication problems. There is never any shame in getting another perspective on your relationship, even if you just consider it a wellness check instead of a weekly or monthly commitment.

Nope, never. There is no scenario in which this would be appropriate for a licensed, clinical, mental health therapist. Sex therapy focuses on education, normalization, finding solutions, and helping clients overcome psychological road blocks in their intimate life.
