I only take Aetna, but I can provide you with a “Superbill” to seek reimbursement if your plan includes out-of-network mental health benefits. For other insurances, we can provide a super bill upon request for to get reimbursement from your insurance. We cannot guarantee reimbursement from your insurance company. In order to obtain reimbursement from your insurance company, a mental health diagnosis must be made.
Insurance companies often determine your type and length of therapy, even if it’s against my professional opinion. So, it limits what I can do with my clients. Plus, the paperwork they require is often a job in itself!
I prefer to have full freedom and create a treatment plan that’s perfect for YOU.
I accept Zelle, bank transfers, money orders, credit/debit cards, and cash.
Therapy with me is active. We’ll build rapport, and as we get more comfortable, I’ll give you different activities outside the therapy office to help you process difficult emotions.
It’s easier to act yourself in a new way of feeling than to feel yourself in a new way of acting!
No, you do not have to tell me everything. There are things I do not need to know.
But leaving out pertinent information regarding your history or trauma could impede the therapeutic process.
This is a free 15-minute call to learn more about you and what you are going through. We’ll establish exactly what you need and determine if we’re a good fit for therapy.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a counseling technique where you move your eyes a specific way while you process traumatic memories. EMDR aims to help you heal from trauma or other distressing life experiences.
EMDR therapy doesn’t require talking in detail about a distressing issue. Instead, it focuses on changing the emotions, thoughts, or behaviors that result from a painful experience (trauma). This allows your brain to resume a natural healing process.
My coaching or mentoring creates thought-provoking discussions to guide and support you through personal or professional issues.
The focus of these sessions is not on emotional healing but rather on improving your critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership skills. We’ll expose your blind spots and change limiting behaviors and beliefs.
I only work with adults. After speaking to their parents, I may make an exception with some minors if they feel we’d be a good fit.
