Frequently Asked Questions
What services do you offer?
I work with clients to explore their unique challenges, set intentional goals, and help to uncover deep-rooted patterns that may be affecting your overall wellness. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, social phobias, coping with grief and loss, relationship challenges, emotional regulation, bipolar, autism, depression and more.
What brought you to offer counseling?
Raised in a mountain town, I learned to take the road less traveled. I chopped wood, carried water; nature taught me resilience and humility. My time studying art, yoga, and psychology—also taught me how we move through change, emotion, and loss, and I want to share how you can also choose humor over rumor, to be curious over furious, and choose kindness (for yourself) in hard times.
What is your approach to therapy?
I use a client-centered approach that emphasizes empathy and understanding.
Do you accept insurance?
I accept various insurance plans, and I can provide a receipt for out-of-network reimbursement if needed through Rula.
What should I expect during my first session?
I like to foster a collaborative relationship with you. Therapy should be tailored to your needs. To ensure your goals are meaningful, achievable, and aligned with your values and desires, it’s important to be open and honest so we can uncover and focus on the real challenges affecting your wellbeing.
