I operate from an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) approach. A core idea in ACT is that trying too hard to get rid of or control our emotions tends to backfire. Instead of trying to get rid of unwanted thoughts and feelings, I want to help you learn to respond differently to the unwanted thoughts and feelings so that you can keep your focus on living a fulfilling life based on what’s important to you. We will work together to set meaningful goals to address your concerns–whether they relate to life transitions, depression, anxiety, body image, grief/loss, job or academic stress, or gender and sexuality.

Fees
- Average Session Fee $250
- Affordable sliding scale therapy: apply if you may be eligible.
- I offer 6 sliding scale slots ranging from $150 to $200. These slots are based on financial need and are first-come, first-serve. These sliding scale slots are also intended for uninsured clients, clients with no out-of-network benefits, or those with very high out-of-network deductibles, as it offers more affordable access to therapy services. Please note that clients utilizing the sliding scale fee typically have their therapy sessions limited to 10 to 18 sessions, ensuring that I can accommodate as many clients as possible while maintaining the quality of care.
