IN OUR WORK TOGETHER, WE WILL:

  • Explore who you are, what really matters to you, and how you want to embody this in your life
  • Understand your experience in context, exploring the nuanced impacts and influences of power, privilege, and oppression ​
  • Encounter tender or painful emotions with curiosity and respect
  • Create new (or remember old/forgotten) ways to navigate the waves of life
  • Build new relationships to shame and self-criticism and begin to explore a relationship with oneself that is built on a foundation of compassionate curiosity
  • Connect with and anchor into a larger sense of safety and steady calm in your life, freeing you to be authentically you​

FEES & INSURANCE

I am in-network with Regence BlueShield of WA, Aetna, Carelon Behavioral Health, and Quest Behavioral Health insurance plans. Insurance can be confusing to navigate, so prior to the start of our work together we will verify your insurance coverage and clarify the amount you will be responsible for (if any) so there are no surprises.
If your insurance company is not listed and your plan reimburses for out-of-network mental health services, I can provide you a superbill (detailed receipt) for your sessions. We can talk more about how this process works if this is something you'd like to pursue.

Private Pay Rate: $150 per 55-minute session (should you need a reduced rate, please ask!)

LET'S CONNECT

A strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation of healing in therapy, so it's essential you find a therapist you connect to and feel comfortable with.
