About Me & My work

It often starts with a sped-up heart rate that does not seem connected to anything, or maybe staying up and ruminating over a decision. Sometimes it is a sudden rush of sadness that feels so overwhelming, that the need to cry feels harder and harder to control. Where did this come from?

What if, when perplexed by something, these things did not happen? Basic, easy-to-do techniques enable you to develop clear answers for most issues, and for the ones that are still perplexing? You are able to find peace in the journey?

That is what I help with. Using tools such as EMDR and Brainspotting, I help people help themselves to clear the junk that is getting in the way so that the other stuff is manageable.

I am supervised by Maggie Dickens, LPC-S

questions you might have for me

(+ answers)

What is the cost per session?

Sessions are $100 for standard 50 minutes, I due at time of service

 

Do you take my insurance?

I am currently licensed as an LPC-Associate, so I am unable to be in-network with insurance panels.

You can contact your insurance provider to find out if they will reimburse you for sessions with an LPC-Associate.

What are my options if I have difficulty paying your session fees?

I don’t want cost to be a barrier for you getting services. 

To find out if your insurance coverage will reimburse you for sessions with an LPC-Associate, contact your insurance directly. Read more about how to understand your insurance coverage here. 

You can also contact your CPA to ask whether or not counseling sessions fees can be included as a medical deduction on your annual tax return.

If neither of the above options work for you, check out the other counselors at The Joy Effect who offer reduces rates.
