I also believe in accountability, honesty, and transparency. Taking the first step to feeling better is really hard to do and I'm proud of you for taking that step. I look forward to working with you soon. I do work on this platform part-time so my availability varies, it is usually consistent for Saturday and Sunday appointments, however, during the weekdays my current availability fluctuates. Weekday Evening appointments would have to be after 530pm, EST. and on Wedesdays, I am only available by text. Thank you for understanding. If your child is matched with me and my schedule doesn't work for both of you or my counseling style is not a match f you are matched with me and my scheduling times and/or clinical experience is not a match for you, please select the 'Change Counselor" drop-down option on the Counseling Tab at the top right of your page or let me know so that I can request a referral for another Clinician.
