I offer ADHD-informed therapy and coaching for parents who are feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or unsure how to support their child. My approach combines evidence-based modalities like CBT, DBT, attachment theory, and family systems with practical tools for real-life parenting. Whether you're struggling with emotional outbursts, school challenges, or family tension, I help you understand your child’s brain and respond with more confidence and calm.
That’s a common question. As a licensed therapist (LCSW), I support parents with both emotional processing and practical parenting tools. Coaching tends to focus more on skills and strategies, while therapy allows space to explore deeper patterns, stress, or trauma that may be affecting your parenting. With me, you don’t have to choose—I integrate both depending on what you need.
I offer online therapy (telehealth) to clients across Oregon and California, and in-person Walk and Talk sessions in Bend, Oregon, often accompanied by my therapy dog, Dolce. This is a great option for parents who find traditional office sessions draining or want to process in motion and in nature.
Absolutely. I often work in collaboration with other providers, including pediatricians, occupational therapists, and child therapists. My focus is on supporting you—the parent—so you can be the calm, steady guide your child needs. You don’t have to do this alone.
You don’t need a diagnosis to get support. Many parents come to me unsure if their child has ADHD, Autism, or is just a “strong-willed” kid. What matters most is how your child’s behavior is impacting your day-to-day life—and how I can help you respond with more understanding and less stress.
I do not take insurance. You might have noticed in your search for a therapist that many therapists DO NOT accept insurance anymore, and there are reasons for this. It can limit your treatment by requiring a diagnosis and then setting parameters on the type of therapy and the number of sessions you will be allowed. Your health and wellness should be up to you, not an insurance company.
If your insurance plan allows for OUT OF NETWORK reimbursement, I can provide you with a statement for you to submit to your insurance company. It will be important for you to contact your insurance company and ask questions about Out of Network coverage for mental health providers as it pertains to your plan. Questions to ask them include the percentage covered, deductible to meet, number of session approved, and personal information they will require, so that you can make an informed decision from the beginning.
I offer a limited number of sliding scale spots to make therapy more accessible. I offer reduced rates between $95 and $160, based on household income and other financial considerations (like dependents or medical expenses). Please ask for my Sliding Scale Application.
I accept payment by PayPal, Venmo, major credit cards, and HSA debit cards
Cancellation policy: If you miss a session without canceling (no show) or cancel with less than twenty-four (24) hours notice, you will be charged $80.
