My approach to therapy is collaborative and established in openness, trust, honesty and humor. I believe that our work is rooted in the relationship we build together and should build upon your strengths and uniqueness. It is a privilege for me to be invited to work with my clients as they go through challenges and transitions. I am very passionate about being able to provide a safe, non-judgmental and compassionate space where you can feel supported and understood. My aim is to help you feel empowered, live freely and authentically, thrive in your relationships with yourself and others, and experience healing and change. My experience in working with teens & adults struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and loss. Each client receives a unique approach specific to their needs. My therapeutic approach is to integrate a variety of modalities to help you connect with your healthiest self, I utilize trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches with clients. Healing can be uncomfortable and challenging, and my hope is to co-create a space where you can begin to create meaningful and lasting change. Transforming minds, healing hearts, finding balance. |

Non-session fee schedule
The therapist does not provide disability letters, companion pet letters, or letters regarding your ability to work, or any letters that would inform providers of your mental health letters. You must discuss these needs with your medical or primary care provider.
Court Appearance. Clients are discouraged from having the therapist subpoenaed. Though the client’s attorney, who initiates the subpoena request is responsible for the court appearance and testimony fees, it does not mean that the therapist’s testimony will be solely in the client’s favor. The Therapist will only testify their professional opinion and to the facts of the case.
The following fees apply for court/legal related items:
Preparation time (including submission of records), phone calls, depositions, email or written letters, travel and/or waiting time, time required in giving testimony, filing a document, $320/hour plus any court or other fees incurred. Mileage $0.58/mile. Time away from office due to depositions or testimony $320/hour. The minimum charge for a court appearance $2500. Fees are cumulative. Any and all legal fees, costs, and expenses incurred by the therapist as a result of the legal action. PLEASE NOTE: A retainer of $2500 is due in advance. If a subpoena or notice to meet attorney(s) is received without a minimum of 48-hour notice there will be an additional $450 “express” charge. If the case is reset with notice of less than 72 business-hours, the client will be charged $500 (in addition to the retainer of $2500). All fees are doubled if the therapist has to postpone or interrupt plans.
