Fee and Insurance

The rate is $210 per 50-minute session.
I’m an out-of-network provider and don’t bill insurance directly. If your plan includes out-of-network mental health benefits, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement. I can provide a monthly superbill for you to submit to your insurance company.
I recommend contacting your insurer to ask about your out-of-network benefits and deductible.
To determine your insurance company's reimbursement for out-of-network therapy, you can call and inquire about reimbursement for the code 90837. Also, be sure to ask if you have a deductible to meet before coverage begins.

That matters, and we’ll talk about it. Maybe you didn’t feel comfortable opening up, felt judged, or just didn’t connect. That’s great information for us to examine and use to make the next go more effective. A big part of this work is the relationship itself: feeling met, seen, and safe enough to go deeper. If past therapy felt flat or formulaic, it doesn’t mean you failed. It might just mean the space wasn’t right for what you needed.
Most clients meet with me weekly. Consistent sessions help us build momentum and allow the work to deepen over time. We can discuss what makes sense for you during your consultation.

High sensitivity, also known as sensory processing sensitivity, is a well-studied personality trait. It’s been identified across cultures and studied in both humans and animals. People with higher sensitivity tend to notice and process information more deeply and can be more affected by their surroundings and experiences. This can make things like noise, conflict, change, or a busy schedule more taxing and can also shape how you experience relationships, creativity, and the world around you.
The trait has been studied extensively in peer-reviewed research, beginning with the work of psychologist Dr. Elaine Aron.
If you’ve ever felt like the world hits you harder than it seems to hit other people—loud rooms, harsh lights, rushed mornings, or even someone else’s bad mood—you might be an HSP.
HSPs tend to process emotions and sensory input more deeply. You might need more time to recover after social interactions. You might notice subtleties others miss. You might feel everything all at once—and then need to retreat alone.
If this sounds familiar, you can explore further by taking the self-test developed by Dr. Elaine Aron, the psychologist who first researched and named the trait. It’s not a diagnosis, because high sensitivity is a trait—but it can offer language for a way of being you’ve maybe never had words for.

You might be navigating social pressure, family expectations, grief over choices or circumstances, or simply want a space where you don’t have to explain or justify your decision. This is that space.
Not at all. Childfree-affirming therapy isn’t about excluding parents or being anti-child. It’s about honoring a valid, often misunderstood life path. In a culture that tends to center motherhood, this work offers space for those who’ve chosen a different path, or are still figuring it out, to feel seen, respected, and supported.
Yes, I also work with parents, especially those who value depth-oriented therapy. If you're navigating identity, relationship dynamics, or emotional overwhelm (with or without kids), you're welcome here.
