I am out-of-network with all insurance providers, and do not participate directly with insurance companies. The total fee for my services must be paid in full at the time of the appointment.

Psychotherapy services may be eligible for reimbursement if you have out-of-network benefits. Educational services are generally considered “not medically necessary” and are not reimbursable. To help process claims, I can provide you with a “Superbill” which includes all the necessary information to submit claims to your provider. While payments are made directly to my business by you, any reimbursement from your insurance provider will be made payable and issued to you.

Yes. I work almost exclusively in person. I’ll do telehealth when a client is sick or in special circumstances, but the nature of my work requires physical presence.

Individual psychotherapy, weekly or bi-weekly per 60 minutes: $180; 45 minutes $150

Educational intervention and therapy, semiweekly per 45 minutes: $115

Pilates/Somatic education, as scheduled per 50 minutes: $120

Travel to schools incurs an additional fee.

Psychotherapy is usually weekly or bi-weekly. Educational intervention is usually twice per week. Somatic work can be once a week if you are doing other things. If I’m all you do, come twice a week.

In some cases, I can work with your child during the school day at their school. This is only the case at independent schools that allow outside providers.

I do not do home-based psychotherapy or educational intervention.

Yep, if medically necessary and educationally appropriate your child might receive both services but because they are billed at separate rates, with separate billing codes, they will be separate appointments.

Nope. The therapeutic relationship is special and it’s best for each family member to have their own unique relationship. I can do consulting appointments with parents of minor clients. For therapeutic work, either you work with me and your kid sees a colleague of mine, or vice versa.

I only see clients who are physically present in Maryland.

I am old (ish). I finished my master’s degree in counseling in 2003 and then went on to do a PhD in dance and worked combining the two for 15 years. I worked for many years as a stress management consultant with executives. This body-based work integrated some elements of my counseling and dance training while staying outside of the medical model. In 2020 after transitioning my work to focus on language based learning disabilities, I wanted to integrate my background in body and stress in the mental health experience of anxiety. I obtained my Maryland counseling license by taking the national counseling board exam and for the first two years of my license I will practice under supervision.
