Offerings
Individual/Couples Therapy
Available to California and non-US residents only.
In therapy with me, you will experience a combination of practicing effective coping skills and resolving the deeper issues underlying your struggles. I treat depression, anxiety, compulsive behaviors, PTSD, narcissistic abuse, betrayal trauma, and childhood trauma. I also work with couples struggling with relating to their adult children, sexual desire discrepancy, sexual addiction/deception, power struggles, and communication.
Life Coaching
Coaching allows clients beyond California to work with me.
As a life coach, I am able to use my therapeutic training and experience to help you find real solutions to the painful issues you are struggling with. I coach individuals overcoming depression, anxiety, narcissistic abuse, sexual betrayal, and addictions, and I coach couples, as well, who want help with betrayal recovery, sexual desire discrepancy, power struggles, relating with adult children, and overcoming conflict.
Freedom Ministry
Working with so many hurting people, I have seen that the powers of darkness are real. Sometimes a spiritual approach brings relief much faster than therapy. If you are seeking freedom from spiritual issues such as pride, anger, fear, shame, hopelessness, pain, control, lust, victim-thinking, perfectionism and more, be encouraged knowing that I have witnessed amazing results with clients as I lead them in using their God-given authority to command such things to leave.
Support Groups
As a Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist (CSAT), Certified Partner Trauma Therapist (CPTT), Association of Partners of Sex Addicts Trauma Specialist (APSATS) trained therapist, and Early Recovery Couple's Empathy Model (ERCEM) trained therapist, I coach an online support group for betrayed women moving towards, through, or beyond divorce (Tuesdays 7:30-8:45 p.m.). Add your name to my no-commitment wait list, here. Serious interest only, please.
Availability and Payment
Availability
Sessions occur online and are offered weekday mornings and afternoons.
The "Schedule Now" buttons (above) will open a calendar where you can see which appointments are currently available to choose from. You can book a time there, or call to discuss scheduling options. I can sometimes manage to open a time that doesn't look available online, and occassionally I can shift to meet you on the half hour, if needed.
Insurance
New Hope Therapy is an "out of network provider." This means you will pay in full each session and can be reimbursed by a PPO insurance company according to your policy. You can also lower costs by using your Health Savings Account (HSA) to pay for therapy. If you plan to use your PPO or HSA, please let me know so I can provide you with the necessary 'superbill' receipt.
Cost Concerns
The cost of good therapy is expensive. Relative to my training and experience, I have kept my fee low so as to be as accessible as possible. If a church or friend is helping you pay for your therapy, please ask about my sliding scale, as I would like to come alongside their generousity by reducing my fee a bit more.
