Individual Counseling
I am primarily an individual counselor, although at times we may bring in family members or other support people as needed. I use a variety of therapeutic approaches including psychodynamic, humanistic, existential, CBT, and family systems. I am trained in the use of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) and also utilize Structural Dissociation Theory in my work with trauma. With clients struggling with disordered eating I work from an Intuitive Eating and HAES (Health at Every Size) approach. I consider it an honor to have my clients trust me to walk alongside them through their recovery journey.
Initial AssessmentWhen we first meet, I like to take my time in getting to know you. The first session typically lasts 75-90 minutes. This way we can not only gather all of the critical history, but also ease into the therapeutic relationship. I do not charge additional fees for the length of this session.

Weekly SessionsMy preference is that we meet weekly at first to gain momentum. It is my experience that this is most effective in establishing trust and formulating a plan. Once a client feels they are ready we may transition to bi-weekly sessions or even monthly maintenance. Together we can discuss how your needs can best be met with what frequency.

Fees and InsuranceCost for a 60 minute session is $135. Many folks have good success with filing out-of-network for reimbursement and I can assist with this process. I encourage clients to check their mental health benefits and deductibles prior to the first visit. Accepted methods of payment include cash, check, HSA, VISA, American Express, MasterCard, and Discover.
