As an Emotionally-Focused Therapist and Supervisor, I help aspiring EFT therapists to refine their practice in order to obtain certification and be more effective in their couples counseling. There is an emphasis on the alliance between myself and the supervisee, conceptualization from an EFT lens, honing experiential skills, and especially the person of the therapist. Use of video observation and role play are key elements of experiential learning and growing.

Why choose self-pay over insurance?
It’s an important question. Your money is valuable, now more than ever. So why choose self-pay?
Couples. Couples counseling does not have a medical diagnostic code that be reimbursed, regardless of what type of insurance you have. This makes up a large portion of my clientele and is a specialty, my niche so to speak. Therefore, many of my clients cannot use their insurance regardless.
Choice. You get to choose the counselor you want and who is the right fit for you, without insurance companies telling you who you can and can’t see. You and your counselor collaborate to choose how many sessions you need. Also, often times quality counselors have wait lists and are sought after, and therefore don’t need to take insurance to fill their case loads.
Confidentiality. In order to use your insurance, clinicians must provide a diagnosis that goes on your permanent medical record and have no control over who has access to that information once it’s provided. Insurance companies can also access session notes, types of treatment, diagnosis, etc. which is very personal information.
All this said, my vow to you is to always use your session time well. I am intentional in how sessions begin so that not a moment is wasted. I also plan ahead before your session. As an experiential therapist, I am trained and skilled to make each moment count. I do not take your time or money for granted. It means the world to me that you choose to journey with me.
Service Spotlight: Teaching & Speaking
A background in education taught me how information is most effectively passed from one person to another. Over a decade in ministry gave me a purpose and a platform. Mental, Emotional, Relational, and Spiritual Health converge as my passion. God provided the secret ingredient of gifting. Speaking and teaching are some of the most enlivening and gratifying parts of my work as ideas, when communicated, come to life in the eyes and experiences of participants.
Available to speak on a variety of topics- relationships/marriage, friendship/connection, communication, emotions, shame, unwanted sexual behaviors, mental/emotional/relational/spiritual health, etc.; in a variety of settings- clinical practices and community agencies, conference, intensives/retreats, churches; to a variety of audiences- clinicians, clients/patients, church congregations, etc. You can provide the topic to be uniquely curated for your event, or inquire about existing presentations for your group.
