Who I Work With

My mission is to provide empathetic, strengths-based counseling for those facing depression, anxiety, and overwhelming life changes. I help individuals heal from trauma, build self-trust, express their truth, and embrace their authentic selves. I will support you through critical life transitions—such as parenting, divorce, caregiving, and menopause—by focusing on empowering you in relationships, careers, and health. My goal is to help you gain a clear understanding of your values, interests, skills, strengths, and requirements for moving forward to live the fullest life you can imagine.

Treatment Approaches

My counseling approach is grounded in being client-centered, collaborative, relational, and feminist. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and Mindful Self-Compassion. Our work together will focus on processing trauma, engaging in 'parts work,' connecting with the Self, fostering acceptance and self-compassion, enhancing emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and developing healthy coping skills.

Fees & Insurance

Individual Therapy: 55-minute individual therapy sessions (virtual and/or in-person) are billed at a discounted private pay rate of $175, with payment due at the time of session by credit card.

Insurance: I am in-network with PacificSource, and I bill $190 to them directly for 55-minute sessions. For other insurance plans, I can provide you with a statement to seek partial reimbursement using out-of-network benefits. Please call your insurance company directly to determine your eligibility for out-of-network benefits.
