Questions?
Here are some of the most common questions I get about working together.

I have an in-person office in Redlands, CA and offer telehealth throughout California. So whether you're local or across the state, we can work together.

Yes. I see clients in person at my Redlands office and via telehealth throughout California. If you're local and prefer to meet face to face, that option is available. If you'd rather work from the comfort of your own space, online sessions work beautifully too.tem description

Pretty seamlessly, honestly. I'll send you a secure video link before each session and we meet just like we would in person — just without the commute. All you need is a private spot, a decent internet connection, and about 50 minutes. Your car works fine too, as long as you're safely parked.
Be sure to have a quiet private spot for sessions. You can do it from your car, but be sure that you are safely parked.

I work from the understanding that most of what brings women to therapy — anxiety, people-pleasing, relationship patterns, feeling stuck — isn't a flaw. It's a strategy that made sense once. My job is to help you understand what your system learned, and help it learn something new. I draw on interpersonal neurobiology, somatic approaches, ACT, and parts work — but mostly I follow what you need. The goal is never to fix you. It's to help you come home to yourself. description

I work primarily with women navigating relational trauma, anxiety, people-pleasing, and midlife transitions including perimenopause. A lot of my clients are high-functioning women who look fine on the outside but feel disconnected, exhausted, or stuck in patterns they can't seem to think their way out of. If that sounds familiar, we're probably a good fit.

My practice is focused on women. My specialty areas — relational trauma, people-pleasing, perimenopause, and midlife transitions — are areas where I work most effectively with women's specific experiences.

I'm out of network with all insurance plans, which means I don't bill directly. However, many clients use their out-of-network benefits for reimbursement — I provide a monthly superbill you can submit to your insurance.
To find out what your plan covers, call the member number on your card and ask:
Do I have out-of-network mental health benefits?
What is my deductible and co-insurance?
How many visits are covered per year?
Are LCSW services covered?
Not sure how to navigate it? Reach out and I'm happy to help you figure it out.
-
More of a conversation than an interrogation, I promise. I'll ask what brought you in, a little about your history, and what's felt helpful or unhelpful in the past. You'll have space to ask me questions too — about my approach, my experience, whatever would help you feel like you're in the right place. The most important thing about a first session is whether you feel seen and at ease. That's what we're building toward.
-
There's no set timeline, and I'll never keep you longer than is useful. Most clients start feeling some shift within the first few sessions — a little more clarity, a little more hope. Some people do a focused stretch of work over a few months. Others choose longer-term support for deeper healing. We check in regularly about what's working and what you need. You're always in the driver's seat.
