It's important to consider the systems around you (family, community, close relationships) to understand their impact on your life and where distress comes from.

Getting Started
You deserve treatment that is tailored specific to your concerns and gives you the most privacy.
The LOCI Center is committed to creating a plan that reflects those concerns, and not only what is allowable and reviewed by insurance.
Generally, couples therapy is not covered by insurance. I offer fee-for-service outpatient therapy, and am an out-of-network provider to ensure privacy and a more complete approach to our work together. Some of my sessions run longer than what is allowable by insurance, providing us adequate time to create powerful shifts in your progress.
