For teens, the first session is typically a parent-only meeting to review consent and confidentiality and to gather relevant history and goals. A separate session with the teen is then scheduled. Some families prefer for the teen session to occur first or for both sessions to take place on the same day; we can discuss your scheduling preferences during the phone consultation.

Yes. I offer virtual sessions for individuals located in New York, Florida, and Connecticut.
