Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you located?
I have an office in North Dallas where I meet with clients for in-person sessions:
15443 Knoll Trail, Dallas, TX 75248
I also work with clients online from anywhere in Texas.
How much does each session cost?
My current (2025) rate per session is $140 for individuals (55 minute session) and $210 for couples (80 minute session)
Do you accept insurance?
I am considered an Out of Network Provider when it comes to insurance.
Many PPO plans allow access to Out of Network providers, but it can be tricky to access if you’re not familiar with it. To make it easier for my clients to access their Out of Network benefits, I have partnered with Thrizer. Ask me more, I can check most insurances very quickly.
*IMPORTANT note regarding Insurance. You should consider that ANY time you allow insurance to pay for your care (whether In Network or Out of Network) it then opens the potential for them to request copies of your records. Requests for records can be used to determine medical necessity and whether they will pay for services or not. Please note that I cannot guarantee that my notes will meet the requirements for medical necessity.

Do you only work with individuals?
I work with individuals and couples, and occasionally, I will offer group sessions geared around a certain topic. My specialties in counseling revolve around improving relationships. That can be done both individually and as a couple.
How long will I need to attend counseling?
The length of counseling can vary depending on the individual and their specific needs. Some people may only need a few sessions to address a particular concern or issue, while others may benefit from longer-term counseling to work through deeper, more complex issues. Short-term counseling can last 6-12 sessions, while longer-term counseling may continue for several months or even years.
What can I expect in our time together?
Individual sessions will be 50-55 minutes. Our first sessions will revolve around hearing your story. We will review basic paperwork, any questions you have, and then begin to build a plan to flesh out your goals for counseling. Our further sessions will continue to develop a plan for treatment and a secure base for our relationship and a specific treatment plan with goals to check progress.
Couples sessions will be 80-85 minutes. I follow the EFT and Gottman method for couples therapy which guides our sessions especially in the beginning. We meet together for our first session, then I’ll meet each of you individually, and then come back together for a forth session to discuss the assessment and treatment goals. Further sessions will include de-escalation and stabilization of the relationship and then move to focus on improving both strengths and challenging areas.
What age ranges are your clients?
I work with adults ages 18 and up.
What is your cancellation policy?
I ask you to cancel 24 hours before our scheduled session. Cancellations without a 24-hour notice will result in the client being charged for the missed session.
Are you a Christian?
Yes, I am a professing Christian and I work with people of all faith traditions. I believe that I have a skill set that is helpful for many people regardless of where they are in their spiritual journey. I seek to provide a setting that is open to all backgrounds and beliefs in a manner that shows Compelling Love to all people. My services are inclusive of any spiritual practice.
