My current therapy fees are $175 for a 50 minute individual therapy session and $200 for a 50 minute couples therapy session. I also offer an extended 80 minute session for $230 regardless of whether it is couple or individual. Initial 20 minute consultations are free.
-
I am currently an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. Depending on your insurance plan, you may be able to receive reimbursement for out-of-network mental health services. I can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company.
Because every insurance plan is different, I recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to ask about your out-of-network mental health benefits, deductible, and reimbursement rate.
-
I offer a limited number of reduced-fee appointments, subject to availability. If cost is a concern, I encourage you to reach out. We can discuss your circumstances and explore what options may be available.

While the bulk of my clients are from Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Bothell, and Everett, I do provide telehealth therapy throughout Washington State, so you can access therapy from the comfort and privacy of your own home.
Because I provide telehealth exclusively, you do not need to live near a physical office to work with me. As long as you are physically located in Washington at the time of your session, we can meet virtually.
-
While I am working toward having an in-person office space, I currently offer telehealth therapy only. Telehealth can provide additional flexibility for clients who have busy schedules, transportation challenges, or simply feel more comfortable meeting from their own space.

There is no single timeline that works for everyone. The length of therapy depends on your goals, circumstances, and the concerns we are working on together.
Some people benefit from a relatively short period of focused therapy, while others choose to continue for several months or longer as they work through more complex or longstanding concerns.
Rather than focusing on a predetermined number of sessions, we can regularly evaluate your progress and make sure therapy continues to be useful for you.

Finding the right therapist is an important part of the process. You should feel that your therapist is someone you can be honest with, someone who respects your perspective, and someone whose approach fits what you are looking for.
My approach is collaborative, relational, and grounded in attachment-based therapy. I work particularly well with clients who want to better understand the patterns beneath their emotions and relationships rather than simply find quick solutions to individual problems.
If you are considering couples therapy, you do not need to know exactly what is wrong or whether your relationship can be "fixed" before reaching out. We can use an initial consultation to talk about what is happening and determine together whether I may be a good fit for you.
If you are unsure, I encourage you to reach out. Sometimes a brief conversation is the best way to find out whether working together feels right.
