Frequently Asked Questions

I provide individual therapy for adults. While clients sometimes bring a second person for a session or two to assist with their therapy, I do not take families or couples as clients.

I take Sunflower, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Aetna insurances.

Some clients prefer to pay privately because they want greater flexibility than insurance usually allows (such as scheduling longer EMDR sessions so your work doesn't have to be spread across so many weeks) or because they want to receive therapy without a mental health diagnosis. As always, feel free to schedule a consultation to discuss the options.

Your goals for therapy are central. You know what’s going on, how it is impacting you, and what your priority is. A single trauma you want EMDR for might be resolved in a matter of weeks, while unpacking a childhood of neglect and abuse might take months or years to treat.

What I can say is this: while I like to work in a gentle way that doesn’t exceed your capacity, the goal is to get you back to normal life and feeling better as soon as possible!

I don’t use AI to listen to client sessions or write documentation. I prefer to be conservative about new technology when your confidentiality is at stake. And, I choose to write all documentation myself because I like to spend that time thinking about your needs and the next step in your treatment!

So I don’t use AI in the therapy room. If that ever changes, clients will be the first to know and have a voice on it.

I work with individual adults of all ages from a variety of backgrounds. If you're struggling with one of my areas of focus, motivated to get better, and willing to implement things you learn outside of sessions as well, we're probably a good fit!

I don’t have specialized training in ESA letters or legal involvement, eating disorders, substance use disorder, or OCD, so if one of those is your primary focus at present, I recommend searching for a provider who specializes in that area.

If you have any questions about working together, reach out and schedule your free consultation to talk it through!

This is up to you!

I am a person of deep faith, and I enjoy working with clients who want to explore spiritual parts of their experiences. But I also enjoy working with people who hold other values and beliefs - and people who don’t want spirituality in the therapy space at all!

You are welcome exactly as you are: no pressure to be anything else. My goal is simply for you to find the help that you are looking for!
