I reserve that spot for you after we set up an appointment. Please make any cancellations at least two business days (48 hours) in advance, both as a courtesy to me and to other patients on the waiting list or who are asking to be seen sooner. This gives me enough time to try to offer someone else your slot. Please take note that if your appointment is on Monday at 3pm, you must let me know by the previous Thursday at 3pm at the latest. You will be charged the entire session price if you fail to provide two business days’ notice. Emergency exceptions are managed on an individual basis. *Keep in mind that insurance providers probably won’t pay you back for late cancellation or no-show penalties.
