Have questions about what it’s like to work together?

Therapy is your direct ticket to cutting through emotional pain and leveling up every part of your life, from your inner world to your relationships. Unlike a chat with friends, this is your private, judgment-free zone to get raw and real, with a professional who's in your corner to help you unlock the life you deserve. Please contact me if you have questions or would like to arrange a free 15-minute phone consultation.

Finding the right therapist is your first move, and I'm here to make that step a breeze. I offer a free phone or video consultation so you can see if we're the perfect match, and together we'll map out how I can help you crush those challenges. In our early sessions, we'll get into the struggles that brought you here and nail down real, actionable goals, then team up to get you there—even if it feels like the journey gets a bit bumpy before the breakthrough. Embrace fresh ideas and take bold leaps; sometimes, trying something new is exactly what flips the script in your favor.

The pace of your therapy journey depends on a mix of things—your schedule, my availability, life's wild twists, the specifics of your challenges, and how much you work on in between sessions. Research shows most folks see meaningful change in about 12 to 15 sessions, and I'm betting we'll hit that sweet spot too. Some may level up sooner, while others get hooked on the process and stick around. My mission? To help you accomplish your goals as quickly as possible.

You’re in control—if you’d rather skip a diagnosis, that’s totally your call; I only offer one if you need it for insurance claims, and we’ll talk it out together for treatment planning and referrals. Remember, when you send info to your insurance, they call the shots on session length and count, not you. And heads up: any private details you share might be stored in the Medical Information Bureau, meaning other parties—like life insurance companies—could get a peek later on.

Online therapy—aka Telehealth—let’s you gain real, accessible counseling, connecting with you via phone, video, or email so you can get the help you need without the hassle of an office visit. That said, if you're in the middle of a severe crisis or wrestling with active suicidal thoughts, this format might not cut it; in those cases, you should connect with local resources and a nearby therapist who can offer immediate, hands-on support. And if these challenges ever pop up during our work together, rest assured—I’ve got a rock-solid emergency plan to link you with local help.

What you share in therapy, your records, and even your attendance are confidential. Confidentiality is so important to me and it’s what makes therapy work. You have the right to a safe and confidential therapy experience. However, there are some exceptions:

- When you give written permission to release information,
- When your records are subpoenaed for legal reasons,
- When reporting is required or allowed by law (example: child abuse or neglect, extreme danger to self, elder abuse, danger to others, or viewing or possession of child pornography)

I do not accept health insurance.

I chose to work with individuals (you), not for insurance companies. I believe that the best care includes each treatment plan designed to meet the needs of the individual - not meet the strict guidelines of the insurance company.

Because of this, I am not paneled with any insurance carriers. However, if your insurance covers ‘out-of-network providers’ (typically PPO insurance plans), they may reimburse you for part of my fee. You may contact them to determine what the reimbursement rates on your plan are.

You might be able to get reimbursed for out-of-network therapy!

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
