Services Offered
I provide individual therapy to adults and children ages 7 and up. I treat people with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, occupational problems, relationship problems, trauma (abuse, rape, accident victims or survivors), children or adult children of addicts or narcissists, autism, people in unconventional romantic or sexual relationships, LGBTQIA+ related issues, divorcing or divorced people, veterans, men's issues, women's issues, chronic illnesses, medical trauma and more.
I do not provide couples' counseling. Issues I do not treat include active substance abuse or people who are newly sober or clean; children and teens with significant defiance issues or diagnoses of oppositional defiant disorder or reactive attachment disorder and delusional disorders such as schizophrenia. I also do not treat anyone who is actively transitioning genders as it requires specialized training I do not have.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do your services cost?
My cash rate is very competitive at $85 per session.
I accept many EAPs or employee assistance programs, including ComPsych, Resources for Living, Magellan, Mutual of Omaha and LifeWorks.
I accept many insurance plans including Evernorth, Aetna, Humana and Tricare. I can verify your copay before we meet.
Can I see you in-person or do you do virtual sessions?
I can see you either way. I use a HIPPA compliant platform called Doxy for video sessions and in some cases i can offer phone sessions too.
Do you provide paperwork for Social Security Disability, short term disability or letters for an emotional support animal?
No.
I'm going through a divorce and I'm bringing my child for therapy. Will you appear in court to testify about my child's mental health and relationship with me or his/her other parent?
I will not willingly show up to court because I do not want to work as an interrogator on a fact-finding mission. If seeing me means that child might make one parent angry, or might reduce the amount of time that child gets to spend with one parent, that child is not going to feel safe, thus defeating the purpose of therapy.
If a child reports something to me about a parent, another adult or anyone else that I am required to report as a mandated State reporter, I will take the steps necessary to maintain that child's safety. The outcome of that report will be provided by the State and can be used in court. I ask that both parents refrain from talking to me about the issues in their marriage beyond anything that directly affects the child.

I'm going through a divorce and I'm bringing my child for therapy. Will you appear in court to testify about my child's mental health and relationship with me or his/her other parent?
I do not treat children for this purpose. My position in a child's life is not to be a fact-finder or interrogator. If seeing me means that child might make one parent angry, or might reduce the amount of time that child gets to spend with one parent, that child is not going to feel safe, thus defeating the purpose of therapy.
