“Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible.”
If you’re thinking…
I can do it on my own
I don’t want to feel judged
I should be able to move on from this
Rest assured…
I entered this profession not to judge, but to understand and support. Your openness allows me to provide tailored assistance.

Fees, Insurance and Reimbursement
Do you take insurance?
No. I serve as an out of network provider.
Because I am a licensed independent clinical social worker in the District of Columbia, my professional services qualify for reimbursement under most insurance plans.
What is an out of network provider?
An out of network provider is a provider who has not contracted with the specific plan or insurance company to provide services for the company. Like many therapists in the area, I am not an "in-network" provider because I prefer to make treatment recommendations and decisions independent of your insurance plan's rules and guidelines.
Does being an out of network provider mean that I will have to pay more?
No. First, we will determine how much your plan will pay, and then work together to establish a co-payment amount that you can afford.
How does insurance work?
Your insurance will reimburse a percentage of the cost your therapy sessions. They will do this according to your plan's benefits package. The following factors influence the reimbursement amount: deductible, percentage allotted (usually ranges from 50 percent to 100 percent), and number of sessions allowed per calendar year.
