Yes, I am in-network with Anthem BCBS, Cigna/Evernorth, United Healthcare. I will submit insurance claims to these companies directly on your behalf. If you are out-of-network, I can provide you with a superbill, which you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. I recommend contacting your insurance provider for details on coverage, including out-of-network benefits or in-network deductibles and co-pays.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, but it’s a courageous and important decision. Here’s how to get started:

Contact me via phone or email to schedule a brief consultation. During this initial conversation, you can share your concerns, ask questions, and discuss what you hope to achieve through therapy. We can also address insurance or self-pay questions at this time.

In our first meeting, we will discuss your needs, goals, and any challenges you may be facing. This is a time for you to get a feel for my approach and determine if you feel comfortable moving forward.

Together, we will assess your individual needs and determine the best integrative approach for your therapy. I will explain the different therapeutic modalities I offer.

Once we decide to work together, we will collaboratively set specific goals for your therapy. These goals will guide our sessions and help measure your progress.

We will arrange a schedule that works for you, whether it’s weekly, bi-weekly, or another frequency that suits your needs. Therapy can be done in person or virtually, depending on your preference.

Therapy is a journey, and it may take time to see changes. I encourage you to be patient with yourself and commit to the process. Regular attendance and engagement in sessions will enhance your experience.

Always feel free to ask questions throughout the process. Your comfort and understanding are paramount to a successful therapeutic relationship.

It’s completely normal to feel overwhelmed at the thought of starting therapy, especially when you're already managing a lot. Starting small is okay. The first step is simply reaching out. In our initial conversation, we can talk through any concerns you have and take things at your own pace. Therapy is designed to be a space for you to find relief and support, and I will guide you through it without pressure.

The length of therapy varies for each individual. Some clients may only need a few sessions to address a specific issue, while others may benefit from longer-term support. We'll regularly review your progress and goals to determine what works best for you. Ultimately, the decision is yours, and you can choose to continue or pause therapy at any time.

Therapy is a personal journey, and there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or in need of support, it can be helpful to speak with a therapist. During an initial consultation, we can discuss your concerns and determine if my services are a good fit for your needs.

At this time, I specialize in individual counseling for adult women and teens/pre-teens.

Yes, your privacy is extremely important. All sessions are confidential, and I adhere to strict ethical guidelines to protect your information.

I will always discuss these exceptions with you upfront so that you feel safe and informed.

Yes, you can choose if you would prefer in person or sessions via tele-health. Virtual sessions are conducted through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform to ensure your privacy.

While the therapeutic principles remain the same, I tailor my approach to suit the unique challenges teens face, such as anxiety, perfectionism, and peer pressure. For teens, therapy often includes tools to manage academic stress and social expectations.

Sessions are designed to be a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. We'll work together to identify goals and create strategies for coping and personal growth. Sessions are typically 50-55 minutes long, either in person or via teletherapy.

Adlerian therapy focuses on understanding the individual’s life experiences and the role of social influences in shaping personality. It emphasizes personal growth, self-awareness, and developing a sense of belonging. This approach is collaborative, working with clients to explore their strengths and overcome challenges.

A Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) experiences heightened sensitivity to external stimuli, including emotions, sounds, and social interactions. They may feel easily overwhelmed or overstimulated in certain environments. I offer counseling that caters specifically to the unique needs of HSPs.
