FAQ & FEES

  • Do you take insurance?

    I accept Aetna, Cigna, Optum, BCBS, Presbyterian & United Healthcare. Medicaid (Presbyterian, Conduent & BCBS) is only accepted in New Mexico. We will verify your plan before starting services.

  • What are your fees?

    If you don’t have (or don’t want to use) insurance, my self-pay fee is $80 per session. Self-pay will give you the most flexibility over your time & treatment. Insurance companies have rules & standards we must follow. I’m happy to discuss this with you more.

  • What are your hours?

    My hours are Monday-Thursday, 10:00am-5:00pm *the last appointment of the day is 4:00pm.

  • Do you provide in-person therapy?

    Not at this time. Services are provided via online video sessions.

  • How do I know if therapy is right for me?

    If you bottle things in, try to ignore your thoughts/feelings, and need a neutral person to talk to, you are in the right place. If you are open to honest feedback and accountability, I’m here for you. My solution-focused therapy highlights changes that can be made now and to create the future you want. This is not a deep dive into your past. Try it & quit anytime.

  • What is therapy like?

    My therapy style is a one-on-one, talk-style therapy that focuses on your desired transformation. We discuss what is working & what isn’t. We find REAL solutions for relief right now & look at patterns that are keeping you stuck. Typically we meet once per week for 50 minutes but that can be modified as needed.

  • How long will this take?

    I focus on solutions and goals so you can see progress and end therapy. Each case is unique but we aim to see improvement in 3-6 months. Longer is okay too! This all depends on your attendance, progress in sessions, and what pace is best for you.

  • How do I get started?

    The easiest way to get started is using any of the “Let’s Connect!” buttons on my site. You will pick a time for a free 15 minute phone consultation. This will help us make sure we are a good match before starting therapy. If you don’t see any spots open, check back soon, availability is updated weekly.
