Psychiatric care for adults including evaluation, psychotherapy and medication management tailored to fit your unique goals.
A comprehensive assessment of your mental health history, current concerns, and goals, used to develop an accurate diagnostic picture and a personalized treatment plan.
I am trained in a range of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including supportive psychotherapy, psychodynamic psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I have a particular interest in psychodynamic psychotherapy and ACT, described below, and together we will determine which approach, or combination of approaches, best fits your goals:
For many individuals, medication and psychotherapy work best in tandem. I coordinate both under a single care plan, continually adjusting treatment as your needs evolve.
A portion of my practice is dedicated to patients who are already working with a therapist and are seeking psychiatric medication management, as well as those who prefer medication management on its own. Even in a medication-focused visit, I look beyond prescribing alone, offering guidance on psychotherapy, behavioral strategies, and lifestyle changes when they may be helpful. Any such recommendations are shaped around your particular concerns, needs, and goals.
I am in-network with Premera Blue Cross, LifeWise, and First Choice & Kaiser PPO plans, and currently in the process of credentialing with Regence Blue Shield. I am otherwise out-of-network with all other insurance providers.
I also offer self-pay/out-of-network services for those who prefer this option. If I am out-of-network for your plan, I can provide you with an itemized receipt of services (a "superbill") upon request, which you can submit to your insurance to seek partial reimbursement. I encourage you to contact your insurance provider before your first appointment to ask about your benefits and coverage for in-network and out-of-network mental health services, and to confirm whether I am considered in-network with your plan or what portion of my fee might be reimbursed.
Current self-pay rates are available during our initial phone consultation or upon request.
You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers must give patients who do not have insurance, or who are not using insurance, an estimate of the expected charges for medical items and services.

Due to the structure and scope of my solo outpatient practice, I do not currently offer the following services:
Additionally, as a solo private practice, I am not equipped to treat patients whose presenting concern involves active psychosis, active substance use disorders, or active eating disorders. I am also not able to take on patients whose presenting concern is acute suicidality or another acute safety risk, as these situations require a higher level of care than an outpatient solo practice can provide. If your needs fall into one of these areas, I am happy to help point you toward a referral better suited to your care.
