Online EMDR therapy works through a secure, HIPAA-compliant EHR platform that includes professional bilateral stimulation tools. During sessions, clients receive visual and auditory bilateral stimulation, such as alternating lights or tones to support the brain’s natural healing process. This helps process distressing memories, reduce emotional intensity, and promote lasting emotional relief and resilience—all from the comfort and privacy of home.

During your first therapy appointment, we’ll take time to review important measures and gather information that helps me understand your unique needs. This session is also about building rapport, creating a safe space for you to share openly, and beginning to outline the direction of our work together. By the end of our meeting, you’ll leave with a clear explanation of the personalized therapy plan we’ll follow to support your goals, so you know exactly what to expect moving forward.

Out-of-pocket session fees are $200 for the initial intake, $160 for standard therapy sessions, and $180 for EMDR sessions. If you are using insurance, session costs depend on your plan’s deductible and coverage. I’m happy to review your benefits and provide a clear understanding of your expected costs before beginning services.

Currently in-network with selected insurance providers, including PPO, Aetna, Optum (Oxford & United Healthcare). If you would like to use your insurance benefits, please contact me to confirm that I work specifically with your insurance plan. If out-of-network with your insurance company, I am more than happy to provide a monthly superbill that you can submit for reimbursement. I recommend calling your insurance provider before our first session to ensure your out-of-network services will be covered.

Credit cards, debit cards, HSA, and FSA cards are accepted through a secure online portal.

Individual therapy sessions are typically 50-60 minutes in length. EMDR therapy sessions can running long between 55-75 minutes.

Clients are required to cancel their scheduled session 24 hours in advance to avoid a full services charge. No shows and late cancellations have a full services charge.
