Frequently Asked Questions
What is therapy like?
Therapy is a collaborative approach between the therapist and the client. As a licensed therapist, I will help you identify goals and solutions to problems that cause emotional distress. My goal is to help improve the quality of your life.
Is therapy confidential?
Yes, everything you say is confidential. Tin Cup Counseling & Consultation follows current best practices to protect your privacy during online counseling sessions.
However, there are some exceptions to the rule of confidentiality. By law, I am required to break confidentiality if a client:
Threatens imminent harm to oneself
Threatens imminent harm to others
Includes folks who are pregnant using illegal drugs/alcohol
Suspected child or elder abuse – if the client is the victim or perpetrator
If your case is subpoenaed, I have to comply by law
You can ask questions before the session begins if you have concerns about confidentiality.
Who may benefit from counseling?
Anyone who has concerns about mental health at any given time.
Do you prescribe medication?
No, but I do have a great referral system if medication management services are needed.
Where do you practice?
I practice online via tele-health through the platform SimplePractice.
Are you licensed?
Yes, I hold top licensure in my field in both Minnesota (LICSW) and South Dakota (CSW-PIP).
