How to Establish As A New Client
*Please read this information carefully*
When appointments are available, the details are posted in the Appointment Availability section below.  If a provider’s specialty and available appointment will suit your therapeutic need, simply click on the link of your preferred appointment and complete Mindful Counseling Interest Jotform. Once MC’s team receives your completed Jotform, we will contact you within 48 business hours to discuss your options. 

Please consider that listed appointments are available to those who fall within our scope of service, have successfully submitted their completed Interest Jotform, have verified their insurance policy's Mental Health Benefits (if applicable), and are responsive to our staff.

If the listed appointments will not meet your therapeutic need, we encourage you to revisit this section of our website often to stay updated on new appointment availability. If waiting for an appointment is not your preference, you can search for alternative mental health providers on the free and helpful websites Psychology Today and GoodTherapy. Due to limited administrative support, Mindful Counseling is unable to offer and manage a waitlist for new clients.
Please note that Mindful Counseling's providers DO NOT specialize in:
-Play Therapy or Counseling for children under 12 years of age.
-Counseling required by any third party (Probation, Employment, CYFD, etc.)
-Counseling for clients experiencing current legal issues or those currently involved in litigation.
For more information on these policies and others, please visit our website's Q&A - Practice Information tab.
