Make an appointment
I offer videoconference or phone sessions. To make an appointment, you will need access to the client portal where you will be able to see my calendar and make your own appointments. To get access, call (408-313-6197) or email (gilles@mftpractice.com) indicating:
The general area of work you are hoping to do with me.
Your state of residence.
Whether you want video-conference or phone sessions.
I do not work with the following issues/areas when they are the primary presenting problem:
-eating disorders
-substance abuse
-Traumatic Brain Injury or neurocognitive disorders
-intense suicidical ideation (because my availability is too limited)
-any issue that requires weekly availability year-round
-I do not work with children
-I am no longer doing grief work because this is an area of work that I recommend doing in person
Cancellations:
At least 24 hours notice of cancellation is required to avoid full payment of the regular fee.
If you are requesting sessions via videoconference, the highest quality video will be with Zoom. For the highest security, but lesser video quality, I recommend doxy.me, a HIPAA-compliant, free and secure platform offering encrypted point-to-point connections. No download is required. Just open a web browser and enter the “waiting room” at https://doxy.me/gillesbekaertmft.
