Currently, I only see clients virtually. As I travel on alternating weeks, the virtual modality allows me to continue providing care.

If you are someone who is on the fence about trying virtual sessions, I’d recommend giving it a go. But it’s not for everyone either.

If you do want in-person sessions, I’m more than happy to provide recommendations for you based on your location!

This really depends on you, for the most part! I am client-centered first, however, so this means I am flexible in adjusting what we do in sessions in order to meet you where you are and to best tailor treatment towards you personally.

Though not an exhaustive list, in general, I use an eclectic range of techniques consistent with the following forms of evidence-based therapies:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

• Narrative Therapy

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

• EMDR

• Mindfulness

• Attachment Theory

• Dialectical Behavioral Therapy

• Motivational Interviewing

As an aside, I am not a step-by-step kind of person, so I think manualized treatments would bore me to tears! I need variation from one session to the next, and it helps me learn when I have to conceptualize an issue within a new framework. Plus, not being homogenous in my approach means we have more freedom in exploring context for your mental health concerns and more coping skills to learn - who doesn’t want that?!

My rates are as follows…

• Initial consultation (15-20 minutes): No charge

• Assessment session fee (60 minutes): $150

• Individual therapy follow-up session (50 minutes): $125

• Family therapy, with client present (50 minutes): $150

• Individual therapy add-on (30 minutes): $75*

*Not available as stand-alone service

At this moment, I do not take insurance, but within the year of 2026, I may prioritize accepting some major insurances.

While I do have several reduced fee options, as of 4/2025, these slots are full.

A few advantages of not using insurance:

• Your information is not reported to an insurance company.

• Insurance companies often dictate the number of sessions they will reimburse per year. If you opt to not use insurance, you are not limited in this way.

• Given the specialization of grief and because grief is not a mental health disorder, it does not often warrant a diagnosis. However, when utilizing insurance to pay for therapy sessions, therapists are required to indicate a diagnosis in order for a reimbursement to be applied. Ergo, paying out of pocket for therapy sessions gives the client more freedom to partake in therapy services without the stigma that can accompany having a mental health diagnosis, which can become part of your permanent health record.

• Certain major insurance entities and certain services that are currently being reimbursed by insurance plans (e.g., telehealth, mental health coverage) have been more heavily scrutinized by government administrations as of January 2025. If you are paying out of pocket for therapy sessions, your services are unlikely to change as you are not at the mercy of what insurance can or cannot reimburse.

• Not taking insurance as a provider means I can see fewer clients and complete less burdensome paperwork in between sessions. This means I can focus more on staying up-to-date on trainings that then benefit our work together and this means that I have more mental energy to contribute towards our sessions (i.e., you!).

• You can also still use your HSA card for services.

A few disadvantages of not using insurance:

• Therapy sessions will not count towards your yearly deductible.

• What you would pay per session is often higher than a copayment dictated by your insurance provider.

I accept the following methods of payment:

• Credit card

• Debit card

• HSA card

Absolutely. I do not tolerate any form of discrimination towards these groups and would be honored to work with you if you identify as a member of the LGBTQ+ community.

I want everyone who works with me to feel accepted, respected, and to know that I advocate for you. Even more, I want everyone who works with me to feel empowered in their identity.

Ultimately, I think diversity makes any community stronger and I think it’s something we should embrace way more than fear. Not only is it my ethical duty to educate myself on any client’s various aspects of identity, but I truly enjoy working with a very diverse range of clients.

Plus, no two people are the same; even two people within the same cultural, faith-based, racial, ethnic, economic group, etc, can have vastly contrasting perspectives on life, vastly different access to resources, and even extremely incongruent protective and risk factors. It’s my job to remain curious and to listen to what your perspective and narratives are, regardless of anything else. And it doesn’t hurt that I genuinely enjoy learning more about what makes you - you.
