  • Therapy is your space to talk about anything and everything. There’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready for, but it’s often helpful for me to understand your past experiences so I can best support you in the present.

    In our first few sessions, we’ll focus on your background, current challenges, and goals for therapy. As we continue, you’re welcome to bring in whatever is on your mind, whether that’s anxiety, relationship struggles, work stress, life transitions, body image, sexuality, or anything else that feels relevant. Nothing is off the table in therapy! 

    Therapy is also a process that takes time, consistency, and patience. Just like any meaningful change, it unfolds gradually. Some sessions may feel like big breakthroughs, while others might feel more subtle, but every step is part of the growth and healing journey.

    You can expect a collaborative experience with a balance of compassion, curiosity, and honest feedback designed to help you grow, heal, and create lasting change in your life.

  • My fee for a 45-minute individual therapy session is $225. Extended sessions are available upon request. I do not accept insurance directly, but I’m happy to provide a superbill (receipt) you can submit to your insurance provider for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Many clients are able to receive partial reimbursement this way. You may also use HSA/FSA funds to pay for therapy sessions.

    To check if you have out-of-network mental health benefits, I recommend calling your insurance provider and asking:

    • Do I have out of network mental health benefits? If so, what percentage of each session is reimbursed?

    • Are telehealth sessions eligible for reimbursement?

    • What is my deductible for out of network coverage and has it been met?

    • How do I submit claims for reimbursement?

  • I find that I work best with clients who are motivated for therapy and feel ready to create meaningful change in their lives. My approach tends to resonate most with people who are interested in exploring the root cause of patterns rather than seeking a quick fix or surface-level solutions.

    You’ll likely get the most out of our work together if you’re open to exploration, feedback, and self-reflection, and if you’re committed to showing up consistently for yourself and the process.

    My approach is also very relational, meaning I see our relationship as the foundation for healing and growth. This is why therapeutic fit is SO important.

    If you feel ready to invest in your personal growth and commit to the process, there’s a good chance we’ll be a great fit. I’ll bring my full presence and care to our sessions, and I ask that you come equally invested in your own growth journey.

  • My practice is fully virtual, which offers the privacy and flexibility that many busy professionals need. Sessions are held through a secure, confidential video platform, with phone sessions available upon request.

    Virtual therapy is conducted similarly to in-person meetings but eliminate travel time, making it easier for you to fit therapy into your busy schedule. Whether you're at home, in the office, or traveling, therapy can be conveniently integrated into your day.

  • I recommend starting therapy on a weekly basis to establish a strong foundation (a minimum of 6-8 weeks is ideal). As therapy progresses, we can adjust the frequency based on your needs. Some clients choose to continue with weekly sessions, while others decrease sessions to every other week. 

    Many clients find value in a longer-term relationship, while others take breaks and return when new challenges or external circumstances arise. Every journey is different, and my goal is to provide support for however long you need.

  • Online therapy is just like in-person therapy, but you meet from the comfort of your own space using a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform.

    Before our appointment, you’ll receive a private link to join. At your scheduled time, just click the link and you’ll be connected.

    Try to find a quiet, comfortable space where you can speak freely and focus on yourself. I also recommend setting your device to “Do Not Disturb” to help minimize any interruptions.

    You can join from a laptop, iPad, or smartphone — whatever is most convenient for you.

  • If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, please provide at least 48 hours’ notice. Cancellations made with less than 48 hours’ notice will be subject to the full session fee.

    You can cancel or reschedule by text, email, or through the online client portal.

  • If you’re ready to begin therapy, I recommend booking an appointment directly through my online calendar here.

    I’ve done my best to include all necessary information on my FAQ and service pages so that you are able to make an informed decision without needing to confirm with me first (or without having to wait to schedule a call).
