My work is grounded in attachment theory, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and relational approaches. With couples, I primarily draw from Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy to help partners understand the patterns that keep them stuck and develop greater emotional responsiveness and connection. With individuals and teens, I integrate relational and emotionally focused approaches with other evidence-based therapies depending on your needs and goals.

Most clients begin with weekly sessions. Meeting consistently gives us enough space to build a strong therapeutic relationship and create momentum in our work together. Over time, the frequency of sessions can be adjusted based on your needs and goals.

Yes. I offer both in-person and secure telehealth sessions for clients located in Washington State. In-person sessions are available at my Queen Anne office in Seattle.

Additional information about accessing the office will be provided when you schedule your first appointment.

Yes. I work with adolescents (13+), adults, and couples. My work with each client is tailored to their developmental stage, circumstances, and goals, while remaining grounded in a relational and emotionally focused approach.

That's okay. Many people come to therapy knowing that something isn't working or that they don't feel like themselves, without having a clear idea of exactly what needs to change. We can use our work together to slow down, understand what's happening, and identify what you need.

Previous therapy can be valuable, even when it wasn't the right fit or didn't lead to the changes you hoped for. We can talk about what was helpful, what wasn't, and what you would like to be different this time. Finding a therapist who feels like a good fit matters.

There isn't one timeline that works for everyone. Some concerns may benefit from focused, shorter-term work, while deeper patterns, relationship concerns, or longstanding experiences may take more time. We'll regularly check in about how therapy is going and whether our work continues to feel useful.

A good therapeutic relationship matters. During an initial consultation or session, we'll have a chance to get a sense of whether my approach and way of working feel right for you. You should feel comfortable asking questions about how I work and what you can expect.

You can reach out through my contact page to schedule a consultation. I'll be happy to hear a little about what brings you to therapy, answer any questions you have, and talk with you about whether I might be a good fit.

Individual and teen therapy is $165 for a 50-minute session. Couples therapy is $175 for a 50-minute session, with 80-minute sessions available for $280. Both couples session lengths are offered at the same rate per minute.

I am an out-of-network provider for most insurance plans. I can provide a superbill after payment for you to submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Coverage varies by plan, so I recommend contacting your insurance company to ask about your specific out-of-network mental health benefits, deductible, and reimbursement rate.

Couples therapy is often not reimbursed by insurance, or reimbursement may be limited, because insurance generally covers treatment for a diagnosed mental health condition rather than relationship work itself. Since couples therapy focuses on the relationship and does not necessarily involve treatment of an individual mental health diagnosis, many insurance plans will not reimburse couples sessions submitted with a superbill.

If you are considering using insurance benefits for couples therapy, I recommend contacting your insurance company beforehand to ask whether your plan provides out-of-network reimbursement for couples or relationship therapy.

A superbill is a receipt containing the information your insurance company may require to consider an out-of-network claim. I can provide one after your session, but reimbursement is determined by your insurance plan and is not guaranteed.
