If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit work and care responsibilities into a schedule, reduce commuting time, and allow shorter check-ins on busy days. It also lets people maintain consistent appointments during periods of transition or unpredictable work hours. Ask about practical scheduling and format details when you start the matching process to make sure sessions will meet your needs.
