Therapy works best when there is trust, comfort, and a strong therapeutic relationship. Because counseling involves vulnerability and openness, it’s important that you feel confident in your choice of therapist.
A free consultation allows you to:
Learn more about Jamie and her counseling approach
Ask questions and share what you’re hoping for
Determine whether it feels like a good fit
Discuss practical details such as payment and insurance
This time is for you—informative, supportive, and without obligation.
Free consultations last approximately 15–20 minutes and are held via secure video.
During the consultation, you can expect to:
Briefly introduce yourself and share what brings you to counseling
Learn about Jamie’s experience and areas of focus
Ask any questions you may have
Review insurance and self-pay options
Ensure the video connection works smoothly
Some clients choose to schedule a full session at the end of the consultation, while others prefer to take time to reflect. Either choice is completely okay.
If helpful, the article “20 Questions to Ask Your New Therapist” by David Susman, Ph.D. offers thoughtful questions you may want to ask—now or later in the therapy process.
Once your consultation is confirmed, you will receive:
A Google Calendar invitation with the secure video link
Email confirmation
Optional text reminders with the meeting link
Sessions are conducted using a HIPAA-compliant version of Google Meet.
Please plan to join from a private, quiet space where you can speak freely. Most phones and laptops already have the necessary camera and microphone.
