FAQ

What demographics do you work with?

I work with adults 18 years and older. I welcome and have experience with individuals from all backgrounds, culture, races, ethnicities, genders, sexual identities,  faiths, as well as those who identify as trans or non-binary. While I do not work with couples or families I am open communicating and teaming with therapists treating other parts of your family system.

I strive to be as inclusive as possible. I am open to providing any accomadation within my abilities to those that need it. I have a variety of sensory tools and work to continually educate myself around the various needs of those in the neurodivergent and disabled community as well as how systems impact their ability to access resources. 

Do you provide Telehealth?

I currently provide in person appointments to those in the Milwaukee area and telehealth to anyone in Milwaukee as well as located elsewhere in Wisconsin. I am also licensed to provide telehealth to those in Texas. Please be advised that I can only provide services to individuals who are physically in the state of Wisconsin or Texas at time of service.

Do you take insurance?

I take the following insurances:

Anthem/BCBS

Aetna

Chorus Community 

Humana

Medicaid (please check first with your HMO)

Network Health

United Health Care 

I will have my biller do a benefits check prior to our first appointment. Deductibles, copays, or co insurance payments are all due at time of service. While we will do a benefits check, insurance details can change often so it is always the client's responsibility to know their benefits and financial responsibility.

What if you don't take my insurance?

My fee for individual sessions out of pocket are $150/60 minutes session due at time of service. 

Sliding scale fee also available.

What is therapy like?

Therapy with me is collaborative, curious, and relational. Together we'll explore not only what's happening in your life today, but also the patterns that continue to shape your relationships, emotions, and sense of self. Some sessions may focus on understanding the past, while others may stay in the present moment, including what's unfolding between us in therapy. There is no script. We'll move at a pace that feels both safe and growth promoting. I will gain a comprehensive history that may unfold over a couple of sessions or more as we need it. Sessions last about 55 minutes and the duration of therapy will be dependent on your needs. Goals and treatment focus will be discussed as often as needed.  

Can I eat or drink during session?

Yes! You do whatever you need to feel comfortable. Bring your lunch, take your shoes off, or wear your most comfortable sweat pants.

What If I have been to therapy before?

Many of my clients have been in therapy before. Sometimes they've learned coping skills but still feel stuck repeating the same relationship patterns or struggling with the same internal experiences. It can also be helpful to explore these patterns within a new therapeutic relationship, one that offers the opportunity to experience yourself differently and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others.
