Honest answers to the questions most people have.
If you don't see your question here, you're welcome to email me directly. I'm always happy to help you decide whether this is the right fit.
We meet by secure, HIPAA-compliant video from a private space of your choice anywhere in Minnesota. You'll receive a simple link before each session — no special software, no commute, no waiting room.
Yes. I am in-network with most major plans and their affiliates, including Aetna, Cigna, and Optum. I also welcome private-pay clients who prefer the privacy and flexibility cash-pay therapy offers.

Standard sessions are 45–50 minutes. Initial intake appointments may run slightly longer so we have time to understand your full story.
Yes. Trauma-informed care is woven into everything I do, and I have specialized training in evidence-based approaches for trauma and PTSD. We move at the speed of your nervous system, never faster.

Yes. Whether you are deeply rooted, deconstructing, doubting, or somewhere in between, your questions are welcome here. Therapy can be a safe, non-pressuring space to explore what you actually believe.
That uncertainty is one of the most common starting points there is. We can begin with a single conversation and decide together whether continuing makes sense. There is no pressure and no commitment beyond the next session.
