Frequently Asked Questions
Are you taking new clients?
I am currently on a waiting list for new clients.
How long will we work together?
My work is designed to be focused, practical, and time-limited rather than open-ended. Using evidence-based approaches for anxiety and OCD, including parent-based treatment, I help families build specific skills to create meaningful change. Rather than long-term therapy, I work with families over a structured period of time, with clear goals guiding our work together. The goal is to help you build the skills and confidence needed to support your child effectively, so that progress continues well beyond our work together.
Do You Take Insurance?
I am an out-of-network provider. If you wish to use your insurance benefits, I can provide you with a superbill to submit to your insurance for reimbursement depending on your specific plan. I accept cash, check, HSA and all major credit cards as form of payment.
Benefits of private pay include confidentiality & privacy of medical record, no mandatory diagnosis, expanded service options, individualized therapy experience, continuity of care and no session limit determined by insurance.
What is your rate for counseling?
50 minute counseling session - $120
What ages do you work with?
Children & Teens
I specialize in working with children and teens with anxiety and OCD, with a strong emphasis on parent-focused treatment. I believe the most effective and lasting change happens when parents and caregivers are actively involved, and much of my work centers on helping you build the skills to support your child when anxiety takes hold.
In many cases, I work primarily with parents using evidence-based, parent-based treatment such as SPACE. There are also times when I meet directly with a child or teen alongside parent work, depending on your child’s needs and what will be most helpful for treatment.
Whether I am meeting with parents only or including your child in sessions, the focus remains on creating practical, sustainable change for your family.
What is SPACE?
SPACE stands for "Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions." It is an evidence-based program that focuses on empowering parents to change their own behavior and responses to their child's anxiety or OCD. The average length of SPACE treatment is 12 weeks. SPACE is a highly effect intervention and one of my favorite ways to work with families struggling with anxiety.

Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.
