Yoda is one of my favorite characters because of his statement "do or do not, there is no try". But how does one do or not if one doesn't know what to do? Maybe you just feel stuck and don't know what you feel you need to do next or even want to do next. Helping you to identify the need, the goal, the ultimate issue is my goal. I work primarily with adults and senior adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, and a host of other mental health concerns. I am LGBTQI+ and kink friendly. I am a certified trauma professional.

I have been in the mental health field for over ten years. I am licensed in Wyoming and New York and believe that therapy should be a place where you can be open and honest about anything going on in your life, good or not so good. I like to take a collaborative approach to my sessions. My belief is that each of us knows ourselves best, and it is my role to unlock the skills you already have. I primarily use interpersonal therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

In providing services to clients, there is no preset ideas of what will be discussed in session. Client determines the direction the session goes and what is worked on, how it is worked on and when it is worked on. Client sets the pace of the session and the direction each session goes in. Client has control of what happens in session when it comes to topics discussed and issues worked on. If a client hits a topic they are not ready to address, it will be set aside until the client is ready to address the issue.

When Talk Therapy Isn’t Enough: How Neurotherapy Heals Trauma
Talk therapy gives insight — but trauma lives deeper.
For many, especially those with developmental trauma, PTSD, or dissociation, talking about the problem doesn’t help the body feel safe. That’s because trauma changes the nervous system. It bypasses logic. It lives in the body.
Neurotherapy helps the brain unlearn survival mode.
By reading and gently training your brainwaves, neurotherapy helps reset your nervous system. That means fewer shutdowns, less hypervigilance, and more connection — to yourself, your emotions, and the present moment.

My ideal clients are individuals and couples who are ready for meaningful change—not just talking about problems, but actively working to improve their lives and relationships. Many feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand—repeating the same arguments, feeling disconnected, or struggling with stress, emotions, or life transitions.
Couples often seek therapy when communication has broken down, trust has been strained, or they feel more like roommates than partners. Individuals may be navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, self-doubt, or trying to make sense of past experiences that continue to affect their present.

Aetna Therapists
Does insurance cover therapy, prescriptions and other behavioral health services?
In general, yes. Laws in the U.S. require insurers to cover essential behavioral health care at the same level as other health care services. Most health plans require a medical diagnosis and treatments that are evidence based and medically essential. This means that life coaching and alternative therapies are not covered, nor is therapy without a diagnosis. Call the number on the back or your insurance card or visit your insurance company's website to review your Summary of Benefits. If you have insurance through your employer, your Human Resources department may also be able to answer questions.
How much does therapy cost with insurance?
The cost of therapy depends on your region, how much training and experience your therapist has, and the type of treatment. The rate for talk therapy generally falls between $100 and $250. For a client seeing an in-network provider, the cost of therapy is often similar to the cost of other health care services. Clients pay co-pays and may need to satisfy a plan’s deductible before benefits kick in.
What is the difference between In-Network and Out-of-Network insurance coverage?
An in-network provider has contracted with an insurer to get paid directly for services, and to accept the insurer’s rate of compensation. Clients are responsible for deductibles and copays. If a therapist is out of network, that means that the client pays the therapist directly for services at the therapist’s regular fee. Out-of-Network providers often give clients a receipt so that they can file for partial reimbursement with their insurance company.
Is it difficult to find an In-Network therapist?
It is not unusual for therapists to limit the number of insurance patients in their practice, so it’s important to check in-network availability when you schedule your first appointment. In regions and times where therapy is in high demand it may take longer to get scheduled with an in-network therapist.
What is the difference between HMO and PPO insurance plans?
HMO health plans only cover in-network services, there is no reimbursement for out-of-network providers. PPO plans often cover both in- and out-of-network services, though the client may pay more for out-of-network services.
What is a Superbill?
A superbill is a receipt for therapy services. It provides all the information required by insurance companies to reimburse you for out-of-network services, including the diagnostic codes for your care, the amount paid, and the dates and duration of care.
Does insurance cover Online therapy?
Many therapists who shifted their practice to online therapy during the pandemic have kept that arrangement. And most insurers continue to cover telehealth services, with a few exceptions. Preventive care (such as an annual depression screening) is often required to be in-person to be covered, and some states require prescribers of controlled substances to see those patients in person.
Does insurance cover Group therapy?
Many insurance plans provide coverage for group therapy provided there is a medical diagnosis for group members, but there are some noteworthy exceptions. For example, Medicare does not always cover group therapy. Group therapy tends to cost less than individual therapy.
Does insurance cover Couples therapy?
Most insurance companies do not cover the cost of couples therapy because there is no medical diagnosis or medically necessary treatment. However, a few plans will offer a limited benefit, so it is still worth checking with your insurance company. Sometimes therapy is covered for a couple when one person has a diagnosis and another family member joins them for joint therapy, but it is considered therapy for the medical condition that includes a family member as a listener or helper, not couples counseling. Without insurance, most clients pay between $100-300 per 60-90 min session for couples therapy. Often clients can find classes or workshops that make it more affordable to work on their relationship. And some employers offer Employee Assistance Plans that help defray the cost of couples therapy.
What is an Employee Assistance Plan (EAP)?
Employee Assistance Plans are purchased by employers for the benefit of their employees. EAPs typically assist employees with referrals and may also provide the first few sessions of therapy free of charge, with the patient's regular health insurance kicking in after those initial sessions. EAP benefits often apply to all types of therapy without the need for a medical diagnosis, making it easier to access couples therapy, therapy for life transitions, and other non-medical counseling. Just as with standard health insurance, clients should always check that a provider accepts their EAP benefits before scheduling. Learn more about Insurance Coverage and Finding Affordable Therapy
