Services that I offer:
- Individual psychotherapy & case management
- Consultation with Family of an Individual who is Hoarding
About the free 30 minute consultation:
I encourage everyone – all Individuals, family members and professionals -to call me to schedule a free 30 minute consultation. This conversation allows us both to see if we are a good fit. If I can’t meet your needs in an ethical and timely way, I will tell you. If that is the case, I will also make a referral to a colleague who I think will be able to serve you.
During the phone conversation we may talk about:
- What brings to therapy at this time?
- What do you hope to get out of therapy?
- What sort of therapist are you looking for?
- How do you want to pay for your sessions?
If we decide to move forward and work together, you will have two payment options.
- I accept some insurance, and individuals who have insurance with these companies need to schedule through the Headway platform: CLICK HERE
- I also see clients who choose not to use insurance. These clients need to schedule sessions with me directly by calling my confidential phone number.
If you need help with Headway or would like to talk to me, please leave me a voice mail at my confidential voice mail box: 425-312-3403. I will return your call within 2 business days.
About my approach to individual therapy:
I offer psychotherapy and case management support for adult individuals. Occasionally I also work with families. I use a variety of evidence-based approaches in my work. The core of my work is centered on cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT. CBT focuses on the connection between our thoughts, feelings and behaviors. I also use some Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) components. In all my work I put you, the client, first. We will work together to find a cadence and a path towards healing that works for you.
About my approach to consultation with families:
I also offer consultation to families of people who hoard. During the last decade, I worked providing mental health treatment to adults whose housing was unstable. I encountered hoarding so often that I educated myself on Hoarding Disorder’s nature and the evidence-based treatments that exist. Over the decade that I worked for this non-profit I was privileged to work alongside premier researchers and clinicians in the field of Hoarding Disorder. Fast forward to today, and I now find myself able to use that same knowledge for your benefit. I consult with families who have a loved one who is living in a hoarded home. I offer information, expertise and a listening ear, as well as connection to resources.
Families may find it helpful to read through my attached resource, “Help for Hoarding and High Clutter Homes.” This document provides information on Hoarding Disorder, resources for families, and also the services I can provide, along with my fees.
Please note that this consultation is not covered by insurance and should be scheduled by calling me directly at 425-312-3403.
