Individual Therapy Work
I specialize in young adults and I work with people of all ages.
I believe in a person-centered approach that is solution and action oriented. We are building skills and learning how to create the life you want.
It is an honor to listen to your story and to support you in learning and growing.

Work with Young Adult
I am able to listen without judgement and input where there is need. Teens often feel like the 'problem' and I help them find solutions.
Everyone's brain works differently - it is our job to figure out what works for us.
I am also able to help them learn effective and respectful ways to communicate with the other people in their lives.
While my main work will be with your teen, it is helpful to meet every 4-5 weeks to talk about progress, goals, and challenges. You know your child best and you can help me see the whole picture. This is crucial to the work and keeps everyone speaking the same language. While keeping the confidence of your teen, I am able to show you the "game plan" and brief you on the skills that we are learning. The family life is an important part of teen growth and progress. I can support everyone connected to your teen's life.

Work with Family Only
I am available to support parents and family members. I offer ideas and strategies and come up with a plan to help. As parents, we only know what we grew up and observed, either with our family or on TV. We also are barraged with advice from a society that has not figured it out or may not hold our same values. I can help clarify and provide ideas for solutions that work for everyone.

Insurance
I am a private pay provider and not currently in-network with any insurance companies. Clients who work with me either choose to forego insurance or they submit a superbill to their insurance company for possible reimbursement.
If you would like to work with me and access insurance benefits, please call the number on the back of your health insurance card to find out what your out-of-network mental health benefits are and confirm that they reimburse for services provided by a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate (LMHCA). Some questions you may want to ask:
Payment is collected after each session. Accepted forms of payment include: cash, check, or credit card payment through IvyPay Portal.
A limited number of sliding scale spots are available. Please inquire about these spots if you have financial need.

- How many sessions per year does my plan cover?
- How much does my insurance plan reimburse for an out-of-network provider for CPT codes 90834 and 90837?*
- Does my insurance plan cover LMHCA?
- Does my insurance plan cover codes for couples therapy*?
- What is my co-payment (if applicable)?
- Do I need prior authorization?
- Do I need approval from my primary care provider?
- What is the home and mailing address on my file? (important to ensure checks are issued to the correct address)
- How do I submit a super bill? Is there an online portal or do I have to mail or fax a copy?
- What is the time limit to submit a super bill?
