I believe that you and I should decide what, if any, diagnoses we want to work with, what kind of treatment works best for you, and how long that treatment will last. A private pay model means no surprises - you’ll always know what the fee is going to be. For couples, private pay is most appropriate because filing with insurance would require me to identify a “target patient,” setting us up from the start with a power imbalance between partners. I’m happy to talk about this more in our consult call.

Individual sessions are $200, couples sessions are $300, and intensives are $500 for 2 hours and $750 for 3 hours. You can pay FSA/HSA, credit card, or venmo.

I do! I’m happy to talk with you during our consult call about a sliding scale fee that feels fair to both of us.

An intensive is just what it sounds like - a longer session, usually 2-3 hours. Intensives are great for people who are out of town a lot for work, who really want to tackle a thorny and complex topic in session, or who want to jump start therapy by combining the intake session with a therapy session.

The Gray Mare is an all-virtual practice. This allows me to offer more sessions and more flexible scheduling.

I do have a public instagram page connected to the practice. Because of ethical guidelines, I never accept friend requests from clients on social media.

I work from a person-centered perspective, which says that you’re the expert on your experience. You set the pace and decide how far back and how deep you want to go with things. We collaborate together on how directive you want me to be and whether you want homework to complete between sessions.

Unfortunately I’m only licensed in North Carolina right now, which means I can only see you for session if you’re physically within the state, but I hope to expand to other states soon.

No, I’ve done lots of other social work jobs. I was a family and children’s social worker for nearly 10 years, and worked with all different kinds of folks. I’ve done some social work in medical settings and in schools too, but I’ve focused on clinical work since 2021.
