Therapy Approaches
Mindfulness
Mindfulness doesn't only include long deep breathes or exercises noticing surrounding stimuli. Mindfulness gives us the tools to pause and interrupt the process that happens between thought and behavior.
Socially Informed Theory
As individuals we do not exist only in a vacuum, we are a product of our environment. Using socially informed approaches allows for us to zoom out and see how systems and your view of the world may influence your experiences and perceptions.
Relational
What happens in the therapy room is a reflection of all other relations in our lives. Working together in a safe space can provide a new lens to see how we are interacting with others as well as giving us space to try out new relational skills.
Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
Have you noticed how your thoughts, behaviors, & emotions seem connected? That is the premise of CBT! None of these things exist by themselves but highly influence one another. CBT is one of the leading treatment in disorders in which behavior is heavily influenced, such as eating disorders.
Rates and location
I am excited to offer virtual therapy across North and South Carolina with offerings throughout the week in my office in Charlotte, NC.
Insurance
I am not currently in network with any insurances. I am happy to provide you with a superbill upon the completion of services for you to submit to your insurance.
Current Pricing and Rates
Initial intakes are a one time fee of $185. For a 60 min session my fee is $150 per session. 80 minute sessions (typically best suited for family sessions) rate is $200. I do have limited availability for sliding scale, please inquire with me for more information.
Meal Support
In addition to therapy, I also am able to offer meal support sessions for clients affected by eating disorders. Think of this as a similar experience to eating in a treatment center, except this care is private, individual and tailored to you. A unique approach that is made possible in the out patient private practice setting. My rate for meal support is $50 per 50 minutes. This is unique from therapy and can be useful for folks who are transitioning out of higher level of care.
