Depression, Anxiety, Adjustment Disorder, Substance Use, PTSD, Child and adolescent diagnosis, Mild-cognitive Disorders, Parenting Issues, Marriage therapy, and more.

Military Affiliation

I am a veteran and I am married to a retired veteran. I have experience with Tricare OON (out of network) and with problems relating to military spouse issues, deployment problems, substance abuse, PTSD, TBI, transitioning from the military, retirement, and other problems. I offer EMDR as a therapeutic approach to heal trauma.

EMDR

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. Repeated studies show that by using EMDR therapy people can experience the benefits of psychotherapy that once took years to make a difference. It is widely assumed that severe emotional pain requires a long time to heal. EMDR therapy shows that the mind can in fact heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma. When you cut your hand, your body works to close the wound. If a foreign object or repeated injury irritates the wound, it festers and causes pain. Once the block is removed, healing resumes. EMDR therapy demonstrates that a similar sequence of events occurs with mental processes. The brain’s information processing system naturally moves toward mental health. If the system is blocked or imbalanced by the impact of a disturbing event, the emotional wound festers and can cause intense suffering. Once the block is removed, healing resumes. Using the detailed protocols and procedures learned in EMDR therapy training sessions, clinicians help clients activate their natural healing processes.

ONN:

If you have a PPO and is an insurance I do not have a contract with I use a company called Advekit that can do your billing for you (at no additional cost to you) and they will let you know what percentage of your Out of Network benefits. You will be responsible for just paying the percentage with no additional co-payment.

Late Cancelation/ No show fee:

There is a $125 for any late cancelations (less than 48 hours) or no shows. These fees are not covered through insurance, they are out of pocket.

I am also an "out-of-network" ("OON") provider. This means that I am a qualified provider who has not negotiated a direct service contract with a health insurance company but you can ask your insurance company to reimburse you with what is called a "Superbill" or I also use a company called Advekit that can verify your benefits and also process your claim without a Superbill. HMO plans often provide full coverage only for in-network provider services, while PPO plans may offer partial or full reimbursement for covered services with out-of network-providers. Please check with your insurance carrier for out-of-network coverage for more details.
