Virtual Consultations
Not therapy and not testing — a focused virtual session for people who need a clear read on their situation and honest guidance on options. Available throughout Michigan.
Most people who book one arrive with a specific, stuck question. These are the conversations I have most often.
“Is this even ADHD?”
You recognize yourself or your child in what you have been reading, and you want a clinician’s read before committing to a full evaluation.
Medication questions
You have been offered medication, or tried it and it did not work, and you want an honest walk through what the evidence supports and what it does not.
What to do without medication
Structure, sleep, movement, and behavioral scaffolding — which of them actually move the needle, and where to start given your life.
School and accommodations
What to ask for, what an IEP or 504 can realistically do, and how to have the conversation with a school that is not offering much.
Second opinions
You have a diagnosis or a report you do not fully trust, and you want someone to read it with you.
Where to go from here
Referrals, next steps, and an honest answer about whether you need me, someone else, or nothing at all right now.
Sessions are virtual and one-on-one. Email me with your question and whether it concerns an adult or a child, and I will reply with availability and cost.
Come with your actual question, not a polished version of it. The more specific the situation, the more useful the hour.
If what you need is a full evaluation, ongoing therapy, or a medical provider, I will tell you that plainly rather than sell you a session.
A consultation is not a diagnostic evaluation. A diagnosis requires the full testing process, and no single conversation substitutes for it.
It is not ongoing counseling, and it does not establish a treatment relationship.
I cannot prescribe or manage medication. Those decisions belong with a physician or psychiatric provider, though I am glad to help you prepare for that appointment.
Tell me the situation in a few sentences — adult or child, what you have already tried, and what you are trying to decide. I read every message myself.
