How I can help

Humans are complex. I provide an individualized care plan for each person that is most likely to improve their overall wellbeing.

Identifying specific diagnoses can be helpful for determining whether my areas of expertise are a good match for the situation and selecting treatment options, so I have listed some diagnostic areas that I have successfully treated.

If you are experiencing something that is not listed here, please contact me and we can determine how to best support your needs.

I do not accept insurance - read more here.

Policy on Insurance

My practice is not in-network with any insurance companies and I do not bill insurance directly. I can provide billing documentation (superbills) for clients who wish to submit to their insurance company for out of network reimbursement.

I do not accept payment from insurance companies because I believe in providing the best possible care for each person based on their needs - a basic human right that should not be dictated by anyone other than a patient and the person providing them with care.

Unfortunately, insurance companies do not always share this priority and often deny claims or do not reimburse in a timely manner, causing providers to devote an unsustainable amount of time and effort to seeking payment.
