Please know that Fallon T. & B. S. is not a crisis center and is unable to support you or a loved one in case of emergency.

Well, so there are two answers. One, sessions are what we call a ‘therapy hour’ so between 50-55 minutes. This gives me time to complete notes and a few minutes to take care of…. some things between sessions. I see about 6-9 clients a day, so some breaks are necessary!

The other answer is how soon is treatment completed? This varies for everyone. Some folks get what they need fairly quickly and complete services after 3-5 sessions. My style tends to take a bit longer to really get to deeper, effective solutions. Once clients are good to go, they are ALWAYS welcome back when the next set of life challenges throws them for a loop. It’s a process after all! And we know life can be wild.

Commonly called telehealth, I have been doing it since 2016. I use a program that is safe and private, (aka HIPAA compliant). You receive a link via email, you click the link, and viola! You’re in the session and I will start the call when it’s time.

I offer sessions on a variety of days, daytimes and into the evening to work around your life.

Fear of the financial impact is real and I try to be as affordable as possible! We offer a variety of options from sliding scale to self pay, and insurance is accepted. If you are planning to use insurance, it is highly recommended to reach out to them so you so you know the cost, like deductible, co-pay, co-insurance, etc. Big words and insurance is a whole language in itself. Check out the Payment page for more details.

If you have to cancel within 24 hours, unfortunately yes there is a $75 fee. This can be waived due to emergency or if you are able to reschedule within the week. With notice, I have time to schedule another client. The therapist’s life in private practice is fee for service, so if I don’t have a session, I am not bringing in the dough. And this therapist tries hard to pay her, and her dog’s, bills.

I never want clients to wait too long! I try to ‘close my books’ to new clients when I am too full to get you in within a few weeks. I will post clearly on the website when this happens to keep you from getting too far, I know it takes time, energy, and effort to find someone!

The list on the Payment page will be kept as updated as possible in real time. Going to that page will be the quickest way to see! Payment

Check out the Contact Us page. Right now it is just me, but we will see how this goes! You can fill out the form which is preferred, and I will call you so I can be prepared and ready to chat. You can send me an email too. I try to get back to folks within 24 business hours. I have a problem, I hate a full inbox!

Another intervention or treatment tool I am trained in to use for trauma! It is versatile and I can even do it over the phone, not that I do very often. It goes off of a philosophy that ‘where you look impacts how you feel’ and vice versa. Check out this website for more! https://brainspotting.com/

It is short for ‘Eye Movement and Desensitization Reprocessing”. Yeah, I know. Even the founder of this treatment for trauma has said she would change it if she could! But alas, too late and it is well known to be SUPER effective. Here is another website if you want to learn more. https://www.emdr.com/

I enjoy working with and learning about all sorts of trades and professions! I speak human dynamics and process improvement, no matter the material and I am fluent in private practice mental health. To date, I have worked with real estate brokerages, marketing and engineering firms, and private practices.

I offer packages or stand alone brainstorm sessions, groups or one on ones. Extended contracts are available to work alongside you and/or your team over a period of time or a short term snapshot assessment of your organization, and lots of things in between.
