I do not accept insurance. But I can create invoices or superbills of our sessions to help you with a reimbursement. Sometimes reimbursement options are available through employers, flexible spending accounts, or other third parties. Please contact your insurance provider directly to ask about reimbursement benefits.

Absolutely! It’s common for me to collaborate with a primary therapist while we work together. With your permission, I’ll keep them updated on our progress so we can ensure we’re both supporting you effectively. Extended sessions and intensives can complement weekly talk therapy beautifully. Think of it this way: your talk therapist lays the groundwork, and together we build the house.

Anyone capable of focusing on a thought and motivated to find relief can benefit from these therapies. Ideal clients understand this isn’t typical talk therapy—it’s more focused and goal-oriented. You’ll be guided through a structured process to desensitize, process, and integrate your experience, moving beyond it to embrace new possibilities in life.

These powerful brain-based modalities address both psychological and physical symptoms resulting from adverse experiences. ART, Brainspotting, and EMDR are not limited to trauma—they’re also highly effective for enhancing performance and fostering personal growth

Extended sessions of 90 minutes or more allow the opportunity to progress through your symptoms in a more succinct and focused way without the interruption of a 50-minute session.

An extended format may decrease overall treatment time because of time not spent on:

• checking in at the beginning of each session,
• addressing current crises and concerns,
• focusing on stabilizing and coping skills that the client won’t need after healing, or
• assisting the client in regaining composure at the end of the session.

We meet online from the comfort of your home. No need to fight traffic and scavenge for parking. 

Due to legal requirements, we are bound by the state of Oregon lines. So you must be at least one foot inside the borders. 

You’ll need a quiet, private space, a solid internet connection, and a device like a tablet or computer for our video calls.

For an extra touch of comfort and convenience, consider having these on hand:

• Headphones for extra privacy and bilateral music
• Water to stay refreshed
• Tissues (this is probably required IMO)
• Pen, paper, and art supplies (if you want to take notes or try some creative expression)
• Fidget toys or other comforts

Therapy is a deeply personalized process, and the time it takes depends on your unique needs, goals, and the challenges you’re facing. Together, we’ll experiment with different techniques to see what works best for your system, adjusting along the way.

The length of therapy often varies based on several factors, such as:

• The type of trauma you’re addressing: 

• • Complex trauma (multiple moments over time) may require a longer, more layered approach.
  • Single-incident trauma may resolve more quickly, as the focus is narrower.
• Relational or ongoing safety needs: Healing can take more time when navigating unsafe environments or rebuilding trust in relationships.
• Biological, medical, and environmental factors: These play a role in influencing brain health. A spectrum of considerations—such as medications, chronic stressors, nutrition, movement, sleep patterns, and overall lifestyle—can affect your readiness and response to therapy.

That said, when we meet for extended sessions or intensives, we can often accelerate the process. The combination of the therapy modalities I use and the consolidated time allows us to work deeply and efficiently, helping you see meaningful progress more quickly.

We’ll tailor the process to meet your needs and goals, supporting you every step of the way.
