NEW CLIENTS
How do I know if a therapist is a good fit for me?
Our process is to set you up with a free 20 minute telephone call with one of our intake coordinators. You may schedule or ask questions by emailing us, or just click on any of the "Book a consult" buttons on the website to schedule a call. We’ll talk over what you are looking for and determine if one of our therapists might be a good fit. If not, we will provide referrals if we are able to. If you have any issues or additional questions, you can call 503-995-6576 and leave a voicemail. We will return your call as soon as we can.
How do I know if my insurance is accepted?
Read the Insurance & Fees page for current information on the insurance plans we accept and general information about using insurance for mental health services. We also provide a courtesy Explanation of Benefits once you become a client.
Do you have a waitlist?
Yes, we often do have waitlists for most Clinicians. We limit our waitlists for each Clinician to 10 potential clients so reach out anyway. Your wait is likely to be less than 3 months. Often we can get you in sooner.
Do you provide in person or virtual counseling?
We provide in person sessions as well as telehealth over a secure platform called Simple Practice. You will receive a video link via text and/or email for telehealth sessions 72 hours and 10 minutes prior to your session. Phone calls are also allowed, if needed. Our in person sessions are located at our beautiful offices in Sellwood in SE Portland. We’d love to meet you in real life!
