FAQ
Do you offer sessions only via telehealth?
Yes, I currently provide therapy exclusively through telehealth. You can access your session from most phones, tablets, or computers. I suggest finding a quiet and private space with a strong Wi-Fi connection to complete your session.
Are in-person sessions better than telehealth?
No, not necessarily. While some clients may benefit from in-person sessions (e.g., young children, clients experiencing psychosis), research shows telehealth services are as effective as in-person sessions to treat anxiety, depression, and stress.
Telehealth also offers benefits over in-person sessions, such as increased access to services, decreased time for sessions, and flexibility.
What are your hours?
I offer virtual sessions Monday through Thursday. Because I am based in France, sessions are available during morning and into the afternoon hours
How long is a typical session?
What is your fee?
Do you accept insurance?
I operate as a private pay practice and do not contract directly with insurance companies. Many clients are still able to receive reimbursement for therapy through their out-of-network benefits.
To make this process simple, I work with Thrizer, a service that helps clients easily submit claims and receive reimbursement from their insurance provider.
Depending on your plan, insurance may reimburse a portion of each session.
Thrizer handles the paperwork and claim submission so you don’t have to navigate the process on your own.
Many clients find this allows them to work with the therapist who feels like the best fit while still using their insurance benefits.
If you’d like, I’m happy to help you understand how this works and what your options may be.
How do I get started?
Feel free to send in the contact form on the website, which comes directly to me, or you can call or text me at (970) 331-0739.

What is your cancellation policy?
Since I have blocked out that spot for you, I ask that you give me the full 48-hours notice should you need to cancel your session.
If you do not provide the full 48-hours notice, you will incur a charge for the full session fee.
What are your areas of specialty?
I work with people struggling with substance use, anxiety, disordered eating, poor body image, low self-esteem, transitional/adjustment issues, relationship difficulties, and stress management.
Who benefits from therapy?
Life is hard! Things happen. Stress takes its toll. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
So, everyone can benefit from therapy. Therapy helps you sort through the difficult emotions, thoughts and experiences.
Do you need a space to be heard and understood without judgment?
Or maybe you’re seeking clarity, peace of mind and direction.
Whatever the reason, you can really benefit from therapy.
How often will I need to come to therapy?
That’s totally up to you! At the beginning of therapy, we’ll cover a lot of ground, and I recommend most people start by coming in weekly.
As therapy progresses, most people move to every other week. Let’s figure out together what works best for you!
Does anyone cry in front of you?
I see people experience a multitude of emotions, including crying.
Emotions are perfectly natural! They make us human, and I’m no exception to that rule!
No matter what emotion you experience in the room, I appreciate your vulnerability and willingness to explore.
How would you describe yourself as a therapist?
What’s your approach?
My approach is highly relational because I know our work together rests on the foundation of a strong, solid therapeutic relationship built on trust.
I always strive to meet you where you are in your struggles and goals for therapy. I’ll provide you with support, guidance, problem-solving and skill-building.
I’ll also challenge those negative thoughts and beliefs holding you back and trapping you in a place that doesn’t work for you anymore.
Our work will help you to make the changes you need and want in your life right now.
Have you been in therapy yourself?
Yes, I know what it’s like to sit on the couch, too. There is no shame in taking care of your mental health.
My experience has made me a better person and a better therapist.
