Welcome, I'm So Glad You're Here
If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing, I’d be honored to support you in your journey. I offer a free consultation so we can talk about what you’re hoping to achieve and how I can help. I’m with you every step of the way, no matter where you are in your journey.
Feel free to reach out through the contact form, and let’s schedule a time to chat. I’m looking forward to connecting with you!
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you’ve already shown a lot of courage simply by considering it. In our work together, I’ll support you in a compassionate, non-judgmental space, so you can begin to feel better.
Once you call or message us, we will reach out to you. You can expect to hear from us within 1-2 business days. During the phone call, I will get a little more information about what’s going on, let you know how I can help and from there, we will schedule your first appointment for an intake. I will email you paperwork to fill out prior to that visit so we can focus on you during your visit and not paperwork.
Sure! I offer both in person options as well as virtual.
Therapy won’t look like that, I promise! I strive to create a supportive and safe environment where you can explore your current thoughts and needs. My therapeutic approach incorporates several major theories of counseling. I start from a perspective of wellness and look at a whole person. I tailor my particular focus to the needs of the client(s). I tend to pull from cognitive behavioral therapy, existential therapy, solution-focused brief therapy and Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. I believe that every individual possesses the strength and potential to work through life problems. I seek to help my clients discover this potential and learn skills and strategies that will help them achieve their goals through empowering my clients and providing them with conditions for personal growth.
The counseling process involves a collaborative relationship between client and counselor in an open environment where clients are free to share their thoughts and feelings honestly. Thus, your active participation and personal work outside of sessions are essential for counseling to be effective. I may ask you to try various things outside of the counseling hour to help you reach your goal.
My intake is $175 and runs for 50-55 min. All follow-up appointments $150 for individuals or couples. Follow-up appointments also run 50-55 min. I also offer a sliding scale should that be a need for you. Just ask!
At this time, I accept Aetna and BCBS. If you are not in one of those two networks or prefer to pay out of pocket, I can provide an itemized receipt monthly by request that you can submit to your insurance company directly to get reimbursed.
Such a great question and SO hard to answer! Honestly, it depends on a variety of factors. Some problems require only a few visits to begin feeling more in control of the situation, while others take longer. Unfortunately, there is no magic number but as we make progress we can discuss this further with greater insight!
It can feel like the right time for therapy when you’re experiencing deep emotional pain or stress, but therapy isn’t just for when things are “bad.” It’s also for times when you want to understand yourself better, overcome life’s challenges, or simply feel more in control of your emotional well-being.
No matter what brings you here, I believe that every person has the capacity for growth and change. Therapy is an investment in yourself, and it can be one of the most important steps toward living a more fulfilling life.
Just in starting to check out websites, you are taking a HUGE step towards healing. Finding a good connection with a therapist is one of the most important aspects of the therapeutic process.
I became a therapist with the goal of helping people find contentment in their lives. I feel as if so many people struggle to feel satisfied and find the joy in little things in their lives.
With almost a decade of experience working with people on their healing journeys, I have refined my techniques to be able to tailor our time together to you and your journey.
