Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! I offer a brief, complimentary initial consultation (usually 15 minutes) by phone or video. This gives us a chance to discuss what you’re looking for, answer any questions, and see if i’d be a great fit to work together before scheduling a full session.

You can request an appointment directly through our online client portal, by filling out the contact form on our website, or by giving us a call/email. Once i receive your request, I’ll reach out to confirm your time and send over any necessary intake paperwork.

Individual and Couples Therapy is $300 out of pocket. If I are out-of-network with your provider, I can provide you with a monthly superbill (an itemized receipt) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

I are currently in-network with United Healthcare/OPTUM, Cigna, Lyra, and Compsych. If I are out-of-network with your provider, I can provide you with a monthly superbill (an itemized receipt) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

Therapy provides a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Depending on your goals, therapy can help you develop healthier coping strategies, improve relationships, process past trauma, gain self-awareness, and build actionable skills to navigate life’s challenges with greater ease.

We offer evidence-based approaches tailored to your specific needs, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
  • Mindfulness-Based Therapy
  • Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
  • Narrative Therapy
  • Trauma-Informed Therapy
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
  • Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)

The timeline is different for everyone. Some clients notice a sense of relief after just a few sessions from having a supportive space to vent and learn quick coping tools, while deeper, long-term growth often takes several months. We will regularly check in on your progress together to ensure therapy continues to meet your needs.

A good therapeutic match comes down to feeling heard, safe, and understood. During our initial consultation and first few sessions, pay attention to whether you feel comfortable sharing openly with me. If at any point it feels like we aren’t the right fit, I am always happy to provide referrals to other trusted colleagues.
