What if I need to cancel my appointment?

Cancellations need to be made at least 24 hours in advance of your session. If you cancel in less than 24 hours, you may be charged full price for the session.

What happens in the first appointment?

We talk. We don’t know each other, and it takes a session or two for you to get comfortable talking to and trusting a stranger with things you are struggling with, especially if there is trauma involved.

We will talk about your treatment goals and figure out together how to reach those goals. From there, we move on at your pace.

How long does therapy take?

That is a very good question. Therapy is individualized to each person. Therapy is over when you have reached your therapeutic goals. It’s up to you to put in the work and make the most out of our sessions.

Will we focus solely on the initial goal? No, life happens, and we will switch gears as needed to address what you need at that time.

What modalities do you use?
I have been trained and/or certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Neurofeedback, and other evidence-based trauma treatment and interventions as well as holistic approaches.
What is your professional training?
I have a masters degree in Mental Health Counseling. I have over nine years of experience. I have worked in community mental health with a wide variety of clients include those who struggle with severe mental illnesses, anxiety, depression, PTSD, substance abuse, interpersonal problems, coping, grief and loss, and low self-esteem. In the past year, I have also worked in the drug court program.
Who would not be a good fit for you?
If you struggle with active suicidal thoughts or are engaged in serious self-harm, you will need a higher level of care than what I offer.
Dogs or cats?

I love cats – as long as they belong to someone else.

I prefer dogs.

What's the craziest thing that has ever happened to you?

I saw Kevin Costner, Cole Houser, and Luke Grimes in person at my childhood home (they were filming Yellowstone).

Do I have to lie on a couch?
No, my office isn’t big enough for a couch, but I do have a couple of comfortable chairs to sit in.
Should I wear waterproof mascara?
Therapy can be emotional at times, so it may be a good idea to wear waterproof mascara.
What brand of tissue do you offer?
Kleenex tissues.
