FAQs

  • Who do you help?

    I work with adults ages 18 and older. While one of my specialties is men’s mental health, I welcome clients of all genders—including women, trans, and nonbinary/nonconforming clients.

    I celebrate diversity and work inclusively across all social identities. I also recognize privileges I hold. This drives me to examine my biases, create balance in power, and empathetically respect the individuality of experience. 

  • What can you help with?

    I offer specialized therapy for folks struggling with relationships, trauma, and anxiety to name a few. We can work through what type of therapy approach makes the most sense for your unique situation. Start by exploring my services page to learn more.

  • Are there certain concerns you don’t treat?

    Yes, there are issues that may require expertise outside of my scope. In these cases, I can provide a referral to someone I think can help. I welcome you to schedule a free phone consultation and we can determine if my services are a good fit.

  • Where will we meet?

    I specialize in ‘in-office’ sessions and maintain an accessible Longmont practice serving clients across Boulder, Larimer, and Weld counties. Meeting in person allows us to be fully present—reading body language, sensing subtle shifts, and building an embodied therapeutic relationship. For those unable to attend in person, I also reserve a limited number of spaces for virtual sessions.

  • How much will it cost?

    My standard (53-60 minute) session rate is $150. In addition, I provide more intensive extended sessions (85-90 minutes) at the rate of $225.

    I offer new clients a frequency discount to encourage development of a strong foundation for therapeutic work. Please ask about this during our initial consultation.

    I provide a Good Faith Estimate for private pay (non-insurance) clients. Total costs vary based on your personalized therapy plan.

  • Do you accept insurance?

    I can provide in-network care through many plans under Kaiser and United Healthcare. At this time, I do not accept Medicaid or Medicare.

    For potential out-of-network insurance reimbursement, I can provide a “superbill” for submission to your insurance company. I partner with Thrizer to make the process easy.

    Clients also have the option to use a qualified FSA/HSA card to pay for sessions.

  • Is therapy confidential?

    Yes, what you discuss with me is legally and ethically protected and cannot be shared without your permission. The primary exceptions to this rule are situations where there is a threat of serious harm to yourself or others, or in cases of suspected abuse of a child, elder, or dependent adult, as mandated by law. I will review the specific limits of confidentiality with you at the start of treatment.

  • What if I need to cancel an appointment?

    Change requires commitment and consistency, so I ask that clients make every attempt to attend all scheduled sessions during the course of therapy. If a session must be missed, I request 24-hours notice and I offer opportunities for rescheduling.

  • How do I schedule an appointment?

    You can schedule your free, 20-minute phone consultation directly from my calendar or feel free to contact me.

    If we decide to move forward and begin counseling, we will discuss the best ongoing appointment time and frequency of sessions.
