About me
I hold a Masters Degree in Marriage and Family therapy from Auburn University, and a Bachelors Degree in Psychology from the University of Oregon. I have received specialized graduate and post graduate training in individual, couple and family dynamics, child and human development, and trauma recovery. 

As a Licensee of the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists, I will abide by its Code of Ethics. To maintain my license I am required to participate in annual continuing education. This training allows me to further my knowledge and better serve your needs. 


Fees
My standard fee is $150 for a 50-minute therapy session for individuals, couples and families. Longer sessions are available at a prorated fee. My intake fee is $225 for a 90-minute session. The fee for group therapy is $100/month for two 90-minute groups per month. A sliding scale fee is available for a limited number of clients, based on financial need. 


Insurance

I am an out-of-network provider for most insurance companies including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, PacificSource, Providence, Cigna, and Moda.

Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:
• What are my put-of-network mental health benefits?
• Does my insurance cover the type of counseling you are looking for (ie Individual therapy, family therapy, etc.) ?
• What is my deductible and has it been met?
• Does my policy limit how many sessions i can go per calendar year?

I can provide you with a monthly receipt of services to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. It is up to you to verify your coverage.
