FAQs

What do you specialize in?

I provide 1:1 therapy, life coaching, individual and group retreats, ketamine-assisted therapy, and psychedelic integration.

I work with people who are ready for more in life - whether you’re leading a company, raising a family, or simply someone who knows there’s something greater waiting for you. My goal is simple: I want to help you feel your best, step into what you truly desire, and savor being fully present in your life.

What is the Difference Between Therapy and Life Coaching?

Therapy is designed to help you work through a variety of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and more. The primary goal is to promote healing and personal growth by addressing the root causes of these issues. I often use evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness practices to help my clients develop coping strategies and achieve emotional awareness and resilience. 

Life Coaching is about creating your future. It focuses on clarity, action, and accountability. As a coach, my role is to help you identify your aspirations, set meaningful goals, and develop actionable steps to achieve them. While therapy often asks “Why?”, life coaching is more likely to ask, “What’s next?”  Together, we clear obstacles, develop strategies, and create momentum in the areas of life where you feel stuck or unfulfilled.

How long are sessions, and how long will I need to see you?

Sessions are generally 50 minutes once a week, though occasionally longer sessions or retreats are helpful for more intensive work. The overall length of therapy varies depending on your goals and needs. Many clients start with at least 6 sessions to establish a foundation, with the average being around 6 months or more. In your first session, we’ll explore what feels most supportive for you.

What are my options for scheduling and meeting?

I offer both in-person sessions in Mill Valley and virtual sessions via Zoom. If you need to reschedule, I kindly ask for at least 72 hours’ notice. 

What should I know about payment and insurance?

I accept credit cards, HSA/FSA cards, and Venmo. I’m considered an out-of-network provider, which means I don’t bill insurance directly. I encourage all my clients to speak with their insurance company about reimbursement. I also provide you with a monthly receipt for services called a “superbill” for this purpose.

What are your group and individual retreats like?

Retreats are a chance to step out of daily life and reconnect with yourself in a powerfully transformative way. Most often we gather in Northern California’s natural beauty, though we’ve also hosted in Costa Rica. We’re an easygoing team of practitioners and we genuinely love people, bringing warmth, humor, and care to every retreat.

One of the most beautiful aspects of group healing work is the sense of connection it fosters. It’s also a more cost-effective option than individual treatments, allowing more people to access it and benefit from its healing potential.

My individual retreats are designed for those who feel called to deep personal growth in a private, nurturing setting. Each retreat is tailored to your preferences - we’ll co-create an experience that aligns with your intentions and supports your comfort every step of the way. I often travel to meet clients, whether in the US or internationally, so your retreat can unfold in the place that feels the most restorative for you. If this speaks to you, I invite you to reach out here to begin the conversation.
