Counseling

When you first come in you can expect me to ask what you are interested in working on.  Some typical responses are…

I’m depressed, I’m anxious, I’m stressed-out.

There is no intimacy or affection in my life.

I feel alone and unsupported – as if nobody really cares about me.

I have OCD.

Dating and romance have become impossible.

My partner and I fight too much.

What the fuck is going on with our government???

I think I should spend less time playing video games..

I have eco-anxiety.

I think I have unprocessed trauma from my childhood that’s affecting my adult relationships.

I should have never become a (lawyer, doctor… fill in the blank) – now what should I do?

I think my wife might be borderline – just like my mother was.

I think my husband is a narcissist – oh yeah, my dad was a narcissist too.

It feels like I may be thinking about killing myself too frequently.

I’m in an abusive relationship and think I may be codependent.  

My doctor said I had a manic episode but I think it may have been a kundalini rising spiritual awakening.

My relationship with my parents/kids/siblings is fucked.

I work way too much – my life is completely unbalanced.

I’m thinking about working with psychedelics, plant medicine.

Or maybe you are just seeking authentic counsel from someone older: then we would chat about your goals and mutually decide how I can best support you.

I am an In-Network provider for Cigna, Optum, United Behavioral and Oscar.  For all other insurances I will provide a superbill at the end of each month for you to submit so that your health insurance company can reimburse you.  Please call your health insurance company before we meet to ask what percentage they reimburse and what your deductible is regarding Out-of-Network mental health office visits billing code 90837.

For those who do not have Cigna, Optum, United or Oscar, in an effort to be fair I offer a sliding scale based on your or your family’s gross income as stated on the first page of the previous year’s tax return.  I charge .1% of your annual income per session with a floor of $300 and a ceiling of $600 per session (not per hour).  

I have a 48 hour cancellation policy.  Clients must pay if they miss an appointment or cancel within 48 hours.
