Who do you work with?

I work with adults, with a particular focus on young adulthood. People come to me for help with depression, anxiety, OCD, relationships, and difficult changes in their lives. Some know what they want to work on; others just know they’re struggling and need support.

What does the first session look like?

It’s a conversation. I want to understand what brought you here, what’s been heavy, and what you’re hoping for. You don’t need a perfectly organized story, and you don’t have to share everything at once.

How long are sessions, and how often do we meet?

Sessions are 50 minutes long. We typically meet once per week. Depending on your needs, we may meet twice per week or every other week.

How long does therapy take?

It depends on what you’re looking for and what we’re working on. Some people work with me for a shorter period; others choose ongoing depth work. We’ll check in regularly about whether the pace and direction feel right to you.

Where do sessions take place?

Sessions are online, for clients located in Maryland. You’ll need a private space and a reliable internet connection.

What if I don’t know what I want from therapy?

“I just know something needs to change” is enough to start. We’ll work together to understand what’s difficult and what you’d like to be different.

Do you work with depression, anxiety, and OCD?

Yes. We work on the symptoms that are affecting your daily life and explore the patterns connected to them. For OCD, I use exposure and response prevention (ERP).

What does therapy cost?

The private-pay fee is $180 per 50-minute session. If you’re using insurance, your cost depends on your plan and benefits.

Which insurance plans do you accept?

I accept Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS), Cigna, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Oxford, and Ascension. Check your coverage through Headway; we’ll confirm the details before starting.

Do you offer a free consultation?

Yes—a 15-minute call where you can ask questions, get a feel for how I work, and decide whether it seems right. No pitch, no pressure. Just a conversation.
