The Kick-Off session

More value. Less uncertainty.

In lieu of consultations, I offer initial “kick-off” sessions. If you feel ready and committed to begin a supportive and change-focused process, then kick-off sessions will reward your purposefulness. Find the Kick-Off Session Form at the bottom of this page.

Why I offer Kick-Off Sessions and Not Free Consultations.

While I understand interest in the popularized “Free 15-minute consultation” practice, I have strong reservations. Mostly, my practice is usually at or near capacity and I don’t have the time to participate in a large number of consultations.

Psychotherapy is a professional healthcare service, no different than paying a doctor or physical therapist for a first visit. The “free” model has created too much shopping around and too few serious inquiries. Prospective clients have a better “sense” of me when they experience me as a therapist, not a salesperson. Furthermore, therapists skirt ethical lines when they participate in a brief consults where personal health information emerges and care is not provided.
