No, I am not offering in person therapy sessions at this time.

I use Simple Practice, a HIPAA compliant website portal where you can log on for your virtual therapy sessions. All you need is a private place to talk and a good internet connection.

No, I do not accept insurance. I’m committed to individualized care and flexibility in treatment, which can be hampered by the restrictions of insurance companies. Working directly with you, instead of the insurance companies, allows for greater control over factors like frequency of appointments, duration of therapy, and the need for a diagnosis. I believe this approach leads to better outcomes for clients.

Therapy is a valuable investment in yourself. My rate is $150 for a 50 minute session. Payment is due at the end of each therapy session.

I understand that life throws curveballs. However, missed appointments can hinder your progress. Consistency is crucial for building trust and momentum in therapy. There is a 24-hour cancellation policy:

No-Shows:

- $150 per uncommunicated missed session

Late cancellations:

-First late cancel: No fee, I get it!

-Second and beyond: $150 per missed session

I provide individual therapy and counseling for adults aged 18+. I do not offer child custody evaluations or recommendations, treatment for eating disorders, or psychotic disorders (schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, etc). Additionally, my license only allows me to work with individuals residing in Washington state and Nevada.

There is no set timer on therapy. The length and frequency of therapy is unique to each person. You know when you're reaching the end when you begin to feel better, see progress, and are more confident in yourself.

Initially, weekly sessions are often helpful for establishing a solid foundation for our work together. As we get comfortable and see progress, we can adjust the pace to bi-weekly, then monthly, ultimately tailoring the frequency of sessions to your specific needs and readiness to graduate.

For general inquiries, email is preferred. However, if needed I’m also available by phone and text. I do my best to respond within 24 hours of receiving your message. Existing clients can also send messages through the client portal.
