Services Provided:

  • 45-60 minute mental health sessions for adults over the age of eighteen

    • Offered in person or virtually

  • Some of the training and my background that I can offer within our time:

    When I started in this field my focus was working with Children, Youth and Families! I have some wonderful trainings around Collaborative Problem Solving, Attachment Regulation and Competency, and Play Therapy to name a few. While I work with adults, I have many different trainings we can utilize within your care.

    EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a form of trauma treatment that can support reducing distress associated with stressful life experiences.

    Incorporation of the larger, or “macro systems” that provide a lense of the world

Investment:

  • Sessions are $175 for the first session, and $150 onwards

  • Please note I do not accept insurance at this time, here are some reasons why:

    • Empowerment:

      • Insurance often gets to make a lot of our decisions such as:

        • The rate of reimbursement for sessions (the rate of what the Clinician gets paid), and what you will owe

        • What diagnosis are covered, will get reimbursed and what are not

        • What is allowed to be treated and what is not

      • We get to decide what our approach is within the session, what our goals are, and what we are focusing on, by not taking insurance we are not centered in the idea of what insurance gets to say or do, rather what you would like to work on 

      • We get to decide what our time is worth:

      • There is a lot on the back end that a client might not know about, what and why a claim gets denied, or even the coding towards what a time is billed for within a session. This dictates what I am able to provide, and how we can focus on what we would like within the session

      • We can decide what the the cost for our time is grounded in. I am seeing more insurance plans with high deductibles, meaning what you might owe for insurance, might not be what you can afford.

    • How this work was done:

      • This work was originally done by indigenous practices, this work was grounded in the idea of healing and centered not around what insurance will say we are worth. In grounding myself around cultural humility, and honoring where this work has come from.

    • My time is focused on you:

      • When utilizing insurance, often engagement with insurance to determine eligibility, reasons for denial of claims, and other needs, takes my time away from you

      • My focus can be around what your goals are, and determining ways to build and support obtaining your goal

      • My own self care, as I said within my origin story, I check in with myself and have my own ways of self care. By removing insurance, I am removing barriers for the ways I can also show up within our time together.
