Request to be added to my waitlist to book an appointment.
If you click Book Now and don’t see the “I’m a New Client” option, it simply means my schedule is currently full and I’m unable to welcome new clients at this time. I’m truly grateful for your interest in working with me. I do offer a waitlist for non-emergent situations for those who are able and prefer to wait for an opening. The wait time can vary, sometimes just a few weeks and other times a few months. If you’d like to be added to the waitlist, please send your request through my contact form by clicking here.
