How it works
Setting the Foundation
This step helps us create a supportive framework that reflects your needs and intentions.
Building Awareness and Understanding
Together, we will explore where certain reactions come from and begin to understand what has been keeping you stuck.
Creating Change and Cultivating Growth
As therapy progresses, we will focus on developing practical tools and new ways of responding that align with your goals.

Therapy for Woman
LEARN MORETherapy creates a grounded space to understand the parts of your life that feel heavy, rushed, or emotionally draining. You’re invited to show up just as you are, without having to perform or pretend. Over time, you begin feeling more regulated, steady, and connected to yourself again.
Anxiety Therapy
LEARN MOREIn anxiety therapy you have room to talk through the fears and thoughts you often keep to yourself. Many women feel pressure to appear composed, which makes anxiety even harder to navigate alone. Here you can explore your internal experiences with honesty and without judgment while building tools that help regulate your emotions. This process supports you in feeling more prepared, grounded, and connected to yourself.
Stress Therapy
LEARN MOREFeeling unseen, overwhelmed, or misunderstood in your relationships can take a toll on your emotional well-being. Relationship counseling offers a calm, grounded space to understand what’s happening inside you, why certain patterns repeat, and how to communicate your needs in ways that feel authentic and safe.
Relationship Counseling
LEARN MOREChronic stress can make you feel disconnected from your emotions, your energy, and even your sense of self. Stress therapy gives you a supportive place to understand what your nervous system has been trying to communicate. Through gentle awareness and regulation, you begin to feel more grounded, present, and in control.
Life Transitions Counseling
LEARN MOREChange often brings up tension in the body, tightness, fatigue, restlessness or emotions that feel bigger than usual. Life transitions counseling helps you understand these nervous system responses and supports you in finding new pathways toward clarity, emotional balance, and internal stability during this shift.
Postpartum Anxiety and Depression Therapy
LEARN MOREThe postpartum period can bring profound emotional shifts, and postpartum anxiety or depression may leave you feeling fearful, drained, or disconnected from your own life. Therapy helps you explore these experiences with compassion, understand the patterns affecting your emotional wellbeing, and build tools to support yourself in this transition. You don’t have to hide your struggles or pretend to be okay. With steady therapeutic support, you can rediscover clarity, grounding, and a sense of inner safety.
Pregnancy Therapy
LEARN MOREPregnancy therapy helps you navigate the emotional landscape of pregnancy with more clarity and compassion. Many women feel overwhelmed by physical changes, heightened emotions, intrusive worries, or tension in their relationships. Therapy offers a safe place to name, explore, and soothe these experiences. Together, we slow things down so you can hear yourself, understand your needs, and regulate your nervous system. This work helps you feel more connected, grounded, and steady as you prepare for the path ahead.

Frequently asked questions
Do you accept insurance?
I’m considered an out-of-network provider, which means you pay for sessions directly and can request reimbursement from your insurance company. If you have out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill (an itemized receipt) each month that you can submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement.
Please note that insurance companies require a mental health diagnosis to process claims. This means that you will first need to qualify for a mental health diagnosis before I can provide a superbill.
To check your out-of-network benefits, you can call your insurance provider and ask:
- Do I have out-of-network mental health coverage?
- What is my deductible and have I met it?
- What percentage of my session fee will be reimbursed?
- Do I need pre-authorization for therapy?
Many clients find that their insurance reimburses a portion of their session fees, making therapy more affordable.
What if I don’t want a diagnosis shared with my insurance?
That’s completely okay. If you prefer not to submit claims for reimbursement, your diagnosis will remain private and will not be shared with anyone outside of our work together. Many clients choose to pay privately for this reason, as it allows for complete confidentiality and freedom from insurance requirements.
How does virtual therapy work?
Virtual therapy allows us to meet from the comfort and privacy of your own space. Sessions take place on a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform designed specifically for therapy.
All you need is a stable internet connection and a quiet, comfortable space where you can talk freely. Many clients find that meeting virtually makes it easier to stay consistent with therapy, without the added stress of travel or scheduling.
Session Fees and Payment
Each therapy session is 50 minutes and billed at a rate of $200 per session. Payment is due at the time of each session and can be made by credit card, debit card, or HSA/FSA card through a secure online system.
If you ever need to adjust your schedule, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice to avoid a late cancellation fee.
Still Have Questions?
If you have any other questions about fees, scheduling, or what to expect, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m happy to answer your questions before we begin so you can feel informed, comfortable, and confident about starting therapy.
