    In-Network with BCBS, Aetna, and SHP insurance

  • Yes! I am in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield and Aetna, including State Health Plan (SHP). I am a SHP clear pricing provider (CPP). I can bill your insurance directly. You will be responsible for paying your copay at the time of your appointment.

  • Yes, I do! Please reach out to discuss options.

  • During our first session, we'll take time to talk about why you're seeking therapy, what you hope to get out of therapy, and set goals for our time together. I may also ask questions about your history and current life. This helps me get to know you more and figure out the best ways to help you accomplish your goals for therapy.

    After that, it's up to you! Therapy can be more or less structured, depending on what you prefer. We can incorporate mixture learning new coping skills, expressive arts exercises, Internal Family Systems parts work, mindfulness and somatic practices, as well as verbal processing into our work together.

  • That's a great question!

    Only you know what fits best for you. In honoring that, I offer free 20 minute phone or video calls to get to know each other better. This is a chance for us to "meet" and see what it might be like to work together. Oh, and I'll answer any questions you have about therapy and the process.

    Using insurance can provide accessibility to care (yay!), though requires that I make a diagnosis in order for you to receive treatment.

    We can discuss these options during our consultation meeting and you can decide what works best for you.
