I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples and individual adults. I also draw from training in mindfulness-based and Internal Family Systems approaches, all with a relational-cultural focus. I tend to work with trauma, anxiety, grief and loss, birth and postpartum mental health, life transitions, and emotional and physical intimacy.

I offer in person therapy in Bellingham, Washington and offer virtual therapy online via secure telehealth for anyone within Washington state.

The cost of services depends on the type and length of each session.

Individual Therapy:

• 53 minutes: $185

• 83 minutes: $265

Couples Therapy:

• 53 minutes: $215

• 83 minutes: $310

Individual Clinical Supervision:

• 53 minutes: $150

Please note that I reserve space for reduced-fee individual therapy and clinical supervision appointments to increase accessibility to services.

I am an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. Payment is due at the time of each session.

If your insurance plan includes out-of-network mental health benefits, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement. I can provide a superbill (an itemized receipt for services) that you can submit to your insurance company for consideration.

I encourage you to contact your insurance provider before beginning therapy to understand your benefits, including any deductible or reimbursement requirements. You can also learn more about out-of-network coverage through FAIR Health Consumer.

Please note that couples counseling focused on relationship concerns may not be reimbursable or covered by insurance.

I offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation call for prospective clients. This gives us an opportunity to briefly discuss what brings you to therapy, answer any initial questions, and get a sense of whether working together might be a good fit.

If we decide to move forward, I'll guide you through the next steps, including scheduling your first appointment and completing the necessary intake paperwork.

Our first session is an opportunity for us to begin getting to know one another. I'll invite you to share what brings you to therapy, learn more about your experiences and relationships, and explore what you're hoping to gain from our work together.

There's no expectation that you'll know exactly where to begin or have everything figured out. We'll move at a pace that feels manageable, and I'll help guide the conversation along the way.

Finding a therapist you feel comfortable with is an important part of the process. I encourage you to pay attention to whether you feel heard, respected, and able to begin building trust in our conversations.

Our initial consultation is an opportunity to explore whether my approach aligns with what you're looking for. If we begin working together, I welcome ongoing conversations about how therapy is feeling and whether it's meeting your needs.

The length of therapy varies depending on your goals, experiences, and circumstances. Some people come to therapy to work through a particular challenge or transition, while others find value in a longer process of exploration and change.

We'll revisit your goals and progress throughout our work together and make decisions collaboratively about what feels most helpful.

I ask that clients provide at least 48 hours notice when canceling or rescheduling an appointment. Appointments canceled with less than 48 hours notice will be charged the full session fee, with exceptions for illness or emergencies.

I understand that unexpected circumstances arise, and I'm happy to answer questions about this policy before we begin working together.
