Frequently Asked Questions
What types of mental health concerns do you treat?I provide therapy for adults and older adolescents (14+) experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, trauma and PTSD, chronic illness, chronic pain, alcohol use concerns, self-esteem challenges, women’s issues, and spiritual concerns. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck or overwhelmed and are ready for clarity and practical steps forward. My approach is collaborative and solution-focused, helping you move beyond symptom management toward meaningful change.
Do you accept insurance?Yes, I accept Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS). If you have questions about coverage, deductibles, or benefits, I’m happy to help guide you through the process so you can better understand your options before working together.
What can I expect in my first session?Your first session is focused on clarity and understanding. We’ll discuss what’s bringing you to therapy, explore your current symptoms and history, and identify the goals you’d like to work toward. I’ll ask thoughtful questions to better understand patterns, strengths, and challenges, and we’ll begin developing a clear plan for treatment. My goal is for you to leave the first session feeling heard, understood, and confident about next steps.

Do you work with teens?I work primarily with adults but thoughtfully accept adolescents (14+) on a case-by-case basis.
