FAQS

  • Are you accepting new clients?

    Yes! I currently have availability for virtual sessions across Louisiana. I have a waitlist for in-person sessions in New Orleans. I work with individuals, couples, partners, and polycules.

  • How does the consultation work?

    It’s super simple. Pick a time that works for you, and we’ll hop on a 15-minute phone call. No pressure, no sales pitch, just a chance to see if I’m the right therapist for you. You can ask me anything. I’ll ask a few questions to understand what you're looking for. And if it feels like a good fit, we’ll go from there.

  • What happens after the consult?

    If we’re a match, we’ll schedule your first full session and dive in. That first session is where we start mapping out what’s not working and where you want to go. We’re not just talking about the past. We’re building something new.

  • What's your therapy style?

    Trauma-integrated. Nervous-system aware. Affirming for queer, poly, kinky, and neurodivergent folks.

    I’m warm, real, and not afraid to laugh with you AND challenge you (with care). You won’t get blank stares or endless “And how does that make you feel?”

  • What's your rate? What about insurance?

    My rate is $150 per session for individuals and $175 for couples and partners. I don’t accept insurance, but I’m happy to provide superbills if you’d like to seek reimbursement through out-of-network benefits.

    Sessions are typically 45–50 minutes. Intake sessions run about 60 minutes to give us plenty of time to get to know each other.

  • Where do sessions take place?

    💻 I have openings now for virtual therapy with people anywhere in Louisiana.

    We’ll meet on a secure, private video platform that’s safe for health information. You can join from home or wherever works best for you, without pothole drama or traffic.

    If you want to meet in person, I have a waitlist for sessions in New Orleans.

  • Your site is long! Can I get a quick summary of what you offer?

    Totally fair. I’m wordy on purpose because the people I work with want depth, not fluff. But if you’re just looking for the tl;dr of services here’s a no-frills summary page.

  • What if I have more questions?

    Great! Bring them to our phone consult, or or email me directly at hello@themindnerd.com if you prefer to get clarity before scheduling.
