My approach is integrative, relational, and humanistic, with collaboration at its core. I am intentional in aligning with the unique needs, goals, and interests of each client. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and work to cultivate trust and safety so that healing can unfold.
In our sessions, clients can expect a compassionate and open space where we will work collaboratively to address what’s important to them. Supporting clients in feeling safe, heard, and validated as they express different parts of themselves is at the core of my practice.
If using insurance, please note that we are Out of Network providers, and we do all the leg work for you - check your benefits and lay out transparent fee structure, submit claims for you, advocate for higher reimbursement, lower your fee when you reach deductible, and deal with any issues with your insurance company directly. PPO + POS Plans.
