Learning to work with your emotions, not against them.
Therapy can help you understand what you’re feeling, recognize the patterns that shape how you respond, and build more choice into what happens next.
Life includes discomfort
Some emotions are uncomfortable for a reason. Learning to make room for them, rather than immediately trying to escape them, is part of the work.
Feelings give us information
Emotions can tell us that something matters or needs our attention. The goal is to understand what they’re telling us without automatically letting them make the decisions.
Values help guide choices
Understanding what matters to you can help you notice whether your choices are moving you toward those values or pulling you away from them.
Change takes practice
Understanding a pattern isn’t the same as changing it. Therapy is also about practicing different responses so they’re easier to access when you actually need them.
About me as a therapist
Most of the people I work with are doing okay by most measures. They're functioning, capable, self-aware enough to know something isn't quite right. And yet they keep finding themselves in the same patterns: the same kind of conflict, the same spiral of overthinking, the same gap between who they want to be and how they're actually showing up.
That's not a character flaw. It's just how patterns work. They're hard to see from inside them, and harder to change without some outside perspective.
My approach is direct and collaborative. I'm not a passive listener. I'll ask questions that push you to think differently, reflect back what I'm noticing, and help you build concrete tools, not just insight. We'll look at how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connect, where you tend to get stuck, and what you can practice doing differently.
So how does therapy actually help? Part of it is having enough distance to see things that are difficult to see from inside your own life. We can slow things down, get curious about why you respond the way you do, and start noticing the patterns that tend to take over before you realize they're happening.
But insight is only part of it. Therapy also gives you a place to practice something different, like tolerating an uncomfortable feeling without immediately trying to get rid of it, questioning a thought you would normally believe, communicating differently, or making a choice based on what matters to you rather than what feels easiest in the moment. Over time, those different responses can become easier to access outside the therapy room, where they actually matter.
Fees & Insurance
Therapy can be complicated enough. Fees, insurance, and payment shouldn’t be.
Fees
$165
per 50-minute session
Payment is due at the time of service.
I accept major credit cards, HSA cards, and FSA cards.
Insurance
Aetna & United Accepted
I currently accept Aetna and United health insurance. If you have a different insurance plan, I would be considered an out-of-network provider.
Using Out-of-Network Benefits
Many insurance plans offer reimbursement for out-of-network mental health services. If you're eligible, I'll provide a monthly superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
Cancellations
Your appointment time is reserved specifically for you. Because appointments cancelled on short notice are often difficult to fill, cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged the full session fee.
Questions About Coverage?
I recommend contacting your insurance company to learn about your deductible, reimbursement rate, and out-of-network benefits before getting started.
