Most therapy is shaped by what an insurance company will approve. Mine is shaped by what you need.
I’m a licensed mental health counselor and marriage and family therapist with a background in biology and medical technology and over 12 years of mind-body work as a yoga teacher. I understand how stress, anxiety, and emotional pain live in the body as well as the mind, and I bring that to every session. My work blends CBT, somatic therapy, mindfulness, narrative therapy, and family systems approaches, tailored to you rather than to a checklist.
Why private pay?
When you step outside the insurance model, therapy changes:
Your privacy stays yours. When insurance is billed, a mental health diagnosis becomes part of your permanent health record, and your insurer can request your session notes. Private pay means you decide what’s shared and with whom.
You and I decide how long and how often. Insurance can dictate the number of sessions, the type of treatment, and what counts as “medically necessary.” You don’t have to have a diagnosis to work with me. Growth, burnout, relationship patterns, and life transitions are all worth your time.
Your sessions get my full attention. I keep a smaller caseload so I can be fully present and prepared for each client, rather than rushing between back-to-back appointments to meet insurance volume.
Treatment that fits you. I can integrate breathwork, somatic tools, mindfulness, and mind-body practices that insurance rarely reimburses but that often make the difference.
No red tape. No prior authorizations, no surprise denials, no treatment interrupted because a plan changed.
