  • At this time, I do not accept insurance and am considered an out-of-network provider. This means clients pay me directly for sessions. However, I’m happy to provide a superbill (a detailed receipt) that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement, depending on your out-of-network benefits.

  • Yes. In alignment with my commitment to equity and increasing access to mental health care, I offer a limited number of sliding scale spots for those facing financial hardship or systemic barriers to care. These reduced-fee sessions are available based on need and current availability. If cost is a concern, please don’t hesitate to reach out to discuss options or inquire about the waitlist.

  • I offer a range of session lengths to best support your needs, including standard 50-minute sessions, extended 80-minute sessions, and 2-hour sessions for deeper or more complex work.

    In addition to ongoing therapy, I also offer 3-day intensives which are extended, immersive experiences designed for clients seeking focused support and meaningful shifts in a short period of time.

    If you're unsure which format is right for you, I'm happy to help you explore your options.

  • Sessions are offered both virtually and in person, depending on your preference. In-person sessions take place in my cozy office located in Bellevue, Washington. Virtual sessions are held over a secure, confidential video platform, making therapy accessible from the comfort of your own space.

  • Absolutely! While I specialize in trauma and PTSD, I also support individuals who are navigating life transitions, seeking personal growth, or simply wanting to deepen their connection to themselves and others. Therapy doesn’t require a crisis. Many people come to explore patterns, build resilience, and create a more intentional, fulfilling life.
