Frequently Asked Questions
What services do you offer?I provide therapy for adults navigating anxiety, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, burnout, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that may feel difficult to shift despite insight or self-awareness. My approach integrates EMDR, CBT, attachment-focused therapy, parts work, and nervous system-informed care to support both emotional healing and practical change.
Therapy is tailored to each individual and may include support with trauma processing, self-worth, emotional regulation, relationship patterns, grief, chronic stress, caregiving fatigue, and reconnecting with a more grounded sense of self. I work collaboratively and at a pace that feels supportive, helping clients better understand the different parts of themselves, heal underlying wounds, and build greater resilience, clarity, and emotional stability.
How do I get started?Getting started with therapy begins with scheduling a free 15-minute consultation. This gives us an opportunity to briefly connect, discuss what brings you to therapy, and determine whether it feels like a good fit for your needs and goals.
If we decide to move forward, we can then schedule an initial session either in person or virtually, depending on your preference. My goal is to make the process feel supportive, collaborative, and approachable from the very beginning.

What makes you different?I believe meaningful therapy happens within a genuine human relationship. I show up authentically, thoughtfully, and with deep respect for the trust it takes to do this work. My approach is warm, collaborative, and attuned — balancing clinical skill with real connection.
I strive to be mindful of how to best support each individual client, recognizing that healing is not one-size-fits-all. Sessions may include evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, parts work, CBT, and nervous system-focused interventions, while also allowing space for humor, curiosity, creativity, and intuition when appropriate. At times, I may incorporate reflective tools such as tarot as a way to support insight, symbolism, and deeper self-exploration.
I also provide preparation and integration support for clients engaging in psycholytic or psychedelic-assisted work elsewhere, helping clients process experiences, strengthen insight, and thoughtfully integrate what emerges into daily life and relationships.
Above all, my goal is to create a space where clients feel emotionally safe enough to explore themselves honestly, deepen self-understanding, and move toward lasting change.
What is EMDR?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy approach designed to help the brain process and heal from distressing or overwhelming experiences that may still feel emotionally “stuck.” Trauma is not only defined by major events — it can also include chronic stress, painful relationship experiences, loss, childhood wounds, or experiences that continue to impact how you feel about yourself, others, or the world.
When difficult experiences are not fully processed, they can continue to affect the nervous system long after the event has passed, contributing to anxiety, emotional reactivity, negative self-beliefs, relationship struggles, hypervigilance, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed or shut down.
EMDR helps the brain reprocess these experiences in a way that reduces emotional intensity and allows new perspectives, insight, and relief to emerge. Sessions may include bilateral stimulation such as eye movements, tapping, or auditory tones while gently exploring thoughts, emotions, body sensations, and memories connected to current distress.
EMDR is always approached collaboratively and at a pace that feels supportive to your nervous system. The goal is not to force reliving painful experiences, but to help the mind and body process what may still be unresolved so you can feel more grounded, present, and connected in your daily life.
Do you take Insurance?I am an out-of-network provider and do not directly accept insurance. This allows me greater flexibility in how I work with clients and helps preserve a more individualized, private, and clinically thoughtful therapeutic process.
Insurance companies often require mental health diagnoses, treatment limitations, and ongoing documentation that can influence the course and structure of therapy. By remaining out of network, I am able to tailor treatment to your specific needs rather than insurance requirements, allowing for greater flexibility in pacing, modalities used, session focus, and overall care.
I believe therapy works best when there is space for depth, authenticity, and individualized treatment without unnecessary external restrictions.
For clients who wish to seek possible reimbursement, I am happy to provide a monthly superbill that can be submitted to your insurance provider for potential out-of-network benefits. Reimbursement varies depending on your individual plan, so I encourage clients to contact their insurance company directly to learn more about their coverage.
