Why people here get in touch

In a town this size, everyone overlaps.

Montpelier is the smallest state capital in the country, and in a community that size the professional networks and the social ones are largely the same people. Finding a therapist who is not connected to your workplace, your friends or your child's school is a genuine practical problem rather than an unreasonable preference.

Working with someone outside the state solves it cleanly. There is no chance of encountering me at a school event or a town meeting, no shared professional circle, and no need to consider who might put two things together. That distance is often exactly what makes it possible to be honest.

How it works

The practical details.

Montpelier is Vermont's capital and one of the smallest cities in the country to hold that role. Sessions are by video, so the practical difficulty of finding an unconnected therapist in a small community does not apply.

Everything else is the same as it would be in a room: the same length, the same weekly rhythm, the same work. The consult is free and it is a conversation rather than an assessment.

Common questions

Asked by people in Montpelier.

Is it a problem that you are not based in Vermont?
I hold a Vermont telehealth license, so seeing Vermont clients by video is exactly what it permits. For many people the distance is an advantage rather than a compromise.
Will there be a record with my insurer?
Vermont clients are private pay, so no claim is filed and no explanation of benefits is generated. That is one reason some people prefer it.
What are the limits of confidentiality?
The standard legal ones, principally serious risk of harm to yourself or someone else, and certain safety obligations. They are explained clearly at the start.
