For live appointments, client's come about 10 minutes early and then take the elevator up to the third-floor lobby, where they sit down and fill out a one page information sheet. At the given appointment time, I will come down the hallway and greet you and then we go to my small, confidential office to talk. For online appointments, I use Zoom.
