Contact

Get in touch

There’s no perfect time to send a message. If something here resonated, that’s enough — you don’t need to have your story organized or your questions sharp. The intake form below collects the basics so I can know whether to reply by email or by phone. I read every message myself, and I get back within 24–48 hours.

Send a message

Even a few words is fine.

Preferred contact method

I read every message myself. Your information stays private and isn’t shared.

Other ways to reach me

By phone

(208) 555-0100

I check voicemail at the start and end of each day. If you leave a message, please say a good time to call back and whether it’s OK to leave a voicemail in return.

Schedule a consultation

Prefer to talk first? A free 15-minute call is the easiest way to find out if we’re a fit before booking a full session.

The office

In-person sessions are in Eagle, Idaho. Telehealth is available anywhere in Idaho.

Frequently asked

If you don’t see your question here, the form above is the best place to ask — I’ll answer directly.

What happens at the first session?

Mostly orientation. We'll talk about what's bringing you in, what you've already tried, and what you're hoping for. I'll ask questions that probably aren't the ones you're expecting — about your body, your week, your background. By the end, we'll have a working sense of whether we're a good fit and what the next few sessions might look like. There's no pressure to perform or have your story already organized.

Do you take my insurance?

I'm in-network with Aetna and Cigna. For other plans, I'm out-of-network — you pay my standard fee at the time of session and I provide a superbill (an itemized receipt) so you can submit for reimbursement. Out-of-network reimbursement varies a lot by plan; if you want, I can help you check what yours covers before we start. Full fee details are on the Fees page.

How long does therapy take?

It depends on what we're working on. Most people notice meaningful shifts in the first 3 months — sleeping a little better, catching the thought loop earlier, less self-blame. Deeper structural change tends to land in months 4 through 12. Some people stay longer; some come for a focused 8-to-12 session arc and pause. We'll talk about pacing as we go. There's no required minimum.

Do you offer in-person or telehealth?

Both. My office is at 776 E Riverside Dr in Eagle, Idaho. I'm licensed in Idaho, so telehealth is available statewide. Many clients do a mix — in-person when they can, telehealth when life makes it harder. The work is the same either way; it's about what's logistically sustainable for you.

What's your cancellation policy?

24 hours' notice is appreciated. Late cancellations and no-shows are billed at the full session rate, with grace for genuine emergencies — things happen. The policy isn't punitive; it's that holding your slot means I can't offer it to someone else, and consistent attendance is part of what makes the work work.

How do I know if EMDR is right for me?

Honestly, you don't have to know. We'll talk about whether it fits — usually after the first few sessions, once we have a sense of what's stuck. EMDR is most useful when there's a specific experience or pattern that talk therapy alone hasn't quite reached, but it's not for everyone and it's not a starting place. We build the trust and the skills first; if EMDR is the right next move, we'll talk through what it actually involves before we try it.

Are you accepting new clients?

Currently yes. I keep my caseload small (about 18-20 people on the books at a time) so the work stays attentive — which means availability fluctuates. If I'm full when you reach out, I'll tell you straight and either offer a wait-list slot or refer you to colleagues I trust. Best way to know is to send a message.
