I’m currently in-network with Premera Blue Cross, Kaiser Permanente (all plans), Molina of Washington, and Coordinated Care. If I’m not in-network with your provider, I can provide a superbill you can submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement. I’m happy to walk you through that process. Some people may have reasons to avoid using insurance, such as avoiding the potential impact of diagnoses on their permanent medical records or seeking greater control over the duration of their treatment. I’m happy to answer any questions you may about this and I do offer a sliding scale.

As part of my social justice orientation and values around increasing access to care, I hold a limited space for these Medicaid-funded plans (Molina of Washington and Coordinated care)

I specialize in therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, complex trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-doubt. I have extensive experience working with people who have experienced housing insecurity, oppression, and low socioeconomic status. I enjoy working with anyone, but I have a particular skill for counseling other service providers, including counselors, nurses, attorneys, peer specialists, and case managers.

Yes! I offer free 15-minute consultations as a low-pressure way to connect and explore what you're looking for in mental health support. It’s a chance to see if we’re a good fit and to discuss how I might support you in a way that’s uniquely aligned with your needs.

Yes—research shows that online therapy can be just as effective as in-person therapy for many concerns, including anxiety, depression, and trauma-related issues. Telehealth also offers increased comfort, accessibility, and consistency. I’ve found that meaningful connection and deep therapeutic work are possible in a virtual setting.

Each online therapy session lasts 50 minutes. The first session, if you’re using insurance, will be a diagnostic assessment and intake, where we essentially have a conversation, track your symptoms, and discuss your goals. Each following session will be an exploration of your experiences, emotions, and patterns at a pace that feels safe and meaningful for you. I use somatic, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based techniques tailored to your unique needs. This may include practices such as meditation, breathwork, and stress-reduction techniques. I also offer psychoeducation on the neurobiological aspects of trauma, helping you understand why specific approaches are especially effective in regulating and healing your nervous system.

I typically recommend starting with weekly sessions to help build momentum, establish trust, and see tangible progress. This way, you’ll be able to experience real change, and from there, we can transition to bi-weekly sessions as things shift. Of course, the frequency can be adjusted based on your needs, goals, and what feels most supportive. And if at any point you need to take a break, you’re always welcome to return—therapy doesn’t have to be a long-term commitment.

It varies depending on your unique needs, goals, and what you’re working through. While many clients begin to experience positive shifts after a few sessions, I recommend a minimum of 3 months as a trial period to truly start seeing lasting change. This allows time for us to build trust, explore deeper patterns, and apply the tools and techniques that will support your growth. The process is personal, and we’ll check in regularly to adjust the approach as needed, so you can experience tangible progress along the way. If you like we can even incorporate diagnostic assessments and evaluations to measure your outcomes.

I require a 48-hour notice for cancellations. This aligns with my values around equity and allows me to reschedule or offer the session to someone else who may need it. If a session is missed or cancelled with less than 48 hours' notice, a fee may apply. If more than three sessions are missed or cancelled last minute, we’ll need to discuss a specific plan to ensure that therapy continues to meet your needs effectively. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping maintain fairness and accessibility
