Therapy for people who don't fit the default script.

Individual therapy

Ongoing sessions, one on one

Most people start here. We meet by video on a regular schedule and work on whatever brought you in, using approaches that fit how your brain works. That might be EMDR, or talk-based work on burnout, relationships, identity or executive function.

You can see me as your only therapist, or alongside a therapist you already have. Some clients see me for focused autism or ADHD work while their primary therapist covers everything else. Others see me for weekly EMDR, including for complex trauma, and keep their primary therapist as their home base.

Many clients stay for six to nine months, and some longer. We'll check in along the way about what's helping and when you're ready to space sessions out or finish. Less frequent sessions also work well for check-ins, or for staying on track after more intensive work is done.

Focused trauma work

Virtual EMDR intensives

An intensive condenses EMDR into a longer block of time, so we can do deep processing without stopping every 50 minutes. It can be a good fit if weekly sessions keep getting interrupted by life, or if you're ready to work on something specific, such as:

• Performance anxiety
• Fear of public speaking
• The aftermath of a car accident or other single event
• A specific memory or pattern that keeps getting in the way

Right now I offer intensives to clients who have an ongoing therapist. Your therapist stays your home base before and after, and I coordinate with them, with your permission.

• Free 15-minute meet-and-greet. Get a sense of how I work and ask questions about intensives. We won't go into your history in this call.
• Readiness assessment, 90 minutes. We look at your history and current life together and decide whether to schedule an intensive, prepare first, or explore other options.
• Preparation session, 2 to 3 hours. Only if we're moving ahead. You learn what to expect and practice the resources we'll use during the intensive.
• Intensive session, about 4 hours.
• Longer intensives, about 6 hours, are available once you've completed a 4-hour intensive and it felt manageable. They include a 30-minute break for a meal, rest, a walk or other self-care, plus shorter breaks whenever you need them.
• Follow-up session, with a summary sent to your therapist.

Is an intensive right for you right now?

EMDR can bring thoughts, memories and feelings that usually stay in the background into everyday awareness. That's part of how it works, and it also means timing matters. Intensives tend to go best when your life has some stability and predictability: enough sleep, enough energy to take care of yourself, and room in your schedule to rest afterward. A demanding season at work, ongoing burnout, or a stretch of poor sleep can make it harder to process well.

If now isn't the right time, that doesn't mean never. Many of my clients started with the goal of EMDR and spent time getting ready first, and that preparation is meaningful work in itself.

EMDR processing often keeps unfolding after an intensive, just more slowly. Some clients choose to stay on afterward for ongoing EMDR at whatever pace fits them, which can be especially helpful for complex trauma (CPTSD).

Fees & insurance

Private pay, with help getting reimbursed

I don't bill insurance directly. Many clients with out-of-network benefits get part of each session fee back. There are two ways to do that:

• Thrizer. Thrizer checks your benefits, submits claims for you and can lower what you pay up front.
• Monthly superbill. I send you a superbill each month to submit to your insurance yourself.

How much you get back depends on your plan. Your payment to me doesn't depend on what your insurer pays.
