Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer virtual or in-person therapy?

My practice is 100% virtual, which means you can attend sessions from the comfort of your own space. I’ve come to really appreciate online therapy—not only for the convenience, but because clients are often more comfortable and able to fit therapy into their actual lives.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes. I am in-network with a number of insurance plans. Coverage varies depending on your individual plan, so we can verify your benefits before getting started.

I also offer private-pay services, including services that may not be covered by insurance.

How long are sessions?

Individual therapy sessions are typically 50–60 minutes.

Couples Reset sessions are longer because I believe couples need more than a traditional therapy hour to slow things down, understand what’s happening, practice new skills, and actually accomplish something together.

What can I expect therapy with you to be like?

I’m warm, conversational, curious, and pretty down-to-earth. Therapy with me isn't about sitting silently while you do all the talking.

We'll absolutely make room for what you're feeling and understand where patterns come from—but we'll also talk about what to do with that information. I use approaches including CBT, ACT, behavioral strategies, psychoeducation, and practical problem-solving depending on what you need.

You can expect compassion, curiosity, some humor, and concrete tools you can use outside of our sessions.

Do I need an ADHD diagnosis to work with you?

Not at all.

Many of the people I work with have a formal ADHD diagnosis, while others have simply spent years wondering why organization, motivation, emotional regulation, or everyday tasks seem to require so much effort.

We can work on the patterns that are making life difficult whether or not there's a diagnostic label attached to them.

Do you provide ADHD evaluations?

No. I can help you explore symptoms and patterns that may be consistent with ADHD and help you find appropriate resources if you'd like to pursue a formal evaluation, but I don't provide comprehensive ADHD testing.

Do you work with children?

My current psychotherapy practice is primarily focused on adults, couples, and parents.

However, I spent many years as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst working directly with children and families affected by autism, ADHD, developmental differences, and challenging behavior. That background continues to inform my work—especially when I'm supporting parents.

What is Parent Support?

Sometimes your child has a whole team of professionals—and you're the one who needs support.

Parent Support gives you a place to talk honestly about the stress, worry, frustration, guilt, advocacy, decision-making, and sheer exhaustion that can come with parenting a child who needs additional support.

And because of my BCBA background, you don't have to spend half the session explaining ABA, IEPs, behavioral interventions, executive functioning, or why a seemingly small issue can take over your entire household. I get that world.

What's the difference between being an LMFT and a BCBA?

My two professional backgrounds influence the way I approach therapy.

As an LMFT, I'm trained to understand emotions, relationships, mental health, family systems, and the experiences that shape how we think and feel.

As a BCBA, I'm trained to look closely at behavior—what keeps a pattern going, what happens before and after it, and what we can change to make something work differently.

Together, those perspectives allow us to explore why you feel or behave the way you do—and what you can actually do about it.

Do you work with couples?

Yes, although I'm approaching couples work a little differently.

The Couples Reset is my structured, skills-focused approach to couples therapy. Rather than open-ended weekly couples therapy, we'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck and actively work on communication, conflict, connection, and repair.

Sessions are longer and our work is intentional, with things to practice between sessions so that change isn't limited to the time we spend together.

How do I know if we're a good fit?

You don't have to know before reaching out.

Finding a therapist is personal, and sometimes the best way to know is simply to connect. Tell me a little about what you're looking for, and we can decide together whether I might be a good fit.

And if I'm not, I'm always happy to point you toward other resources when I can.

How do I get started?

Reach out through my contact form and tell me a little about what you're looking for. I'll get back to you with information about availability, insurance or fees, and next steps.

You don't have to have everything figured out before you reach out. That's kind of the point.
