Professional Counselor Associate
My Approach
My focus is on helping clients to connect with their own inner resources of strength and wisdom, and to transform patterns that are not serving them well. I help clients who are survivors of trauma and chronic stress; healing from PTSD, anxiety, and depression; grieving; on journeys of personal growth; and reclaiming their self-esteem and boundaries.
I use a blend of neuroscience and body-centered therapy approaches, to help your mind, body, emotions and nervous system create new patterns of safety, presence, and connection. I believe that everyone has within them the capacity for healing and resilience.
​
I specialize in using EMDR therapy to treat trauma and anxiety. EMDR therapy engages the mind & body’s natural healing process, to tap into your own inner resources and to resolve past distress and trauma. I also use mindfulness, somatic therapy and parts-work, to help explore and strengthen your ability to feel calm and connected.
​
My approach is relational, holistic, and collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs and goals. You are the expert on your journey, and I am here as a supportive guide helping you navigate.

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE
​
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.
​
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 patients 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 1-800-985-3059.
