Frequently Asked Questions
-
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, life transitions, and challenges with boundaries and effective communication. Many of my clients are high-performing individuals who feel overwhelmed and emotionally exhausted and are ready to take action toward meaningful, lasting change.
-
While I’m committed to supporting your mental health needs within the scope of my practice, there are certain services I do not offer. I do not provide therapy for minors under 18, court-ordered or forensic evaluations, expert-witness testimony, or emergency/crisis services. I also do not complete disability, FMLA, or other medical/legal paperwork. If you need services outside my scope, I’ll gladly offer referrals to professionals or agencies better equipped to support you.
-
I offer both in-person and online therapy sessions. Online services are available exclusively to clients located in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
-
The first session is a collaborative time where we’ll discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals, and any relevant history. There’s no pressure to share everything at once. We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable and respectful of your needs.
-
Most clients begin with weekly sessions. Over time, sessions may transition to biweekly or as needed, depending on your goals and progress.
-
I am in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS). I am also a TRICARE-certified provider and can work with eligible clients using out-of-network benefits. For other insurance plans, I partner with Thrizer to help simplify the out-of-network reimbursement process when your plan includes out-of-network mental health benefits. Because coverage varies by plan, I recommend contacting your insurance company to verify your benefits before beginning services. Please note that I am not a Medicare or Medicaid provider, and these plans do not reimburse for my services.

Getting started is simple. You can call, email, or complete the contact form on this website. After you reach out, you’ll receive a message with instructions to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation. During this call, we’ll briefly discuss your concerns, answer any questions, and determine whether we might be a good fit. If we decide to move forward, we’ll schedule an intake session and begin the therapy process.
