Frequently Asked Questions for Clinical Services

Answers to the questions parents ask most often.

When are you accepting new clients?

I will begin welcoming new children, teens, and families in November 2025, with limited openings available. Please inquire here if you’d like to learn more about the waitlist.

What age groups do you serve?

I see children and teens from ages 2–18, with the exact age range depending on the concern.

Do you accept insurance?

I am currently an out-of-network provider. You will receive a monthly “super-bill” should you wish to submit to your insurance for reimbursement.

Do you offer teletherapy?

Yes! Telehealth can be a great option for many, but not all, treatment approaches. Preferred therapy formats will be discussed on your initial consult call.

How long does treatment last?

The treatment approaches I use are time-limited, with most families seeing improvement in 12-20 sessions as they learn tools they can continue using independently.

Are parents involved in treatment?

Yes! Although it depends on your child’s age, parents are expected to be highly involved in treatment. Your involvement will be further discussed and defined based on your child’s needs.

What can I expect in the first session?

Our first session is an intake where I learn about your child and family. For younger children, this is often with parents only so we can talk openly. Older kids and teens may join for part or all of the visit.

Do you provide autism evaluations and/or treatment?

No, I do not provide autism evaluation or direct treatment for autism. However, I do work with children with autism when they are experiencing co-occurring concerns such as anxiety or ADHD.

Do you have to provide a diagnosis for my child?

I complete a thorough evaluation to see if your child meets criteria for a mental health condition, as this can guide treatment. However, because I do not take insurance, a diagnosis is not required to receive services. I also strongly believe in the value of preventative support, even without a formal diagnosis.
