    One-on-one therapy can be a transformative tool for personal growth or a conduit for healing in the aftermath of a significant life transition, loss, change, or traumatic event.

  • Family | Couple Therapy

    Increase resilience, improve communication, and deepen connection & understanding after a transition, loss or life-changing event with couple or family therapy

  • Heart-Led Attunement

    Heart-centered therapy is a relational therapy approach that emphasizes compassion-focused healing, grounding, attachment, and presence.

  • Mind-Body Awareness

    Somatic-informed therapy works directly with the nervous system, where stress and trauma are stored, to help you feel safer, calmer, and more grounded in your daily life.

    Energy psychology is a mind-body approach that combines traditional therapy with energy-based practices. Mental and emotional wellness return when energy systems are balanced.

    Jungian-informed therapy asks “What is trying to emerge?” The terrain of our inner worlds (with its shadows, treasures, and untapped potential) holds the map of greater wholeness.

  • Using insurance for therapy and paying privately each have advantages. Which is better depends on your priorities, budget, and privacy concerns.

    Benefits of Insurance.

    • Cost Savings. Many clients find that using their insurance makes counseling more affordable. Your actual cost will depend on your plan and may be subject to deductibles and copays.

    • Long-Term Counseling. For individuals managing significant mental health challenges or those seeking long-term support, insurance benefits can help make consistent counseling more accessible and affordable over time.

    Benefits of Private Pay

    • Diagnosis. You do not need a diagnosis to receive counseling. Insurance providers require a documented diagnosis before they will consider covering counseling services.

    • Privacy. When you use health insurance to pay for counseling services, your insurance company typically requires information to process and pay claims. This includes a documented and supported mental health diagnosis, dates of service, treatment codes, session notes, and other personal information deemed necessary by your insurance plan.

Next Steps

Schedule a consultation.

The best way to get started is to schedule a free, no-obligation, 15-minute consultation. This is a great opportunity for you to ask questions and decide if I am the right fit for your needs.

Complete paperwork.

If we decide to move forward with therapy, you will be asked to complete a few intake forms prior to your first session. They can be completed online with a phone, tablet, etc.

Your First Session

Your first session will look and feel different than other sessions. Some time will be dedicated to learning your history and clarifying your goals for therapy.

Going Forward

You and I will choose a day and time for weekly or biweekly sessions. Sessions are typically 45-60 minutes in length.

The best way to reach me is by text or email. With the exception of current clients, I have temporarily stopped answering phone calls. Unfortunately, my phone number is being spoofed by scammers and I am receiving calls from people stating that I called them. Note: I filed a complaint with the FCC and am working to correct this issue.
