Therapy Rates, Insurance & FAQs For Therapy in Michigan

Yes. Though, I accept a limited number of new clients to ensure the highest level of responsiveness and personalized care for my existing practice. I currently work with clients in-person at my Muskegon office and virtually throughout Michigan.

Because of this, my availability changes weekly.

The first step is a complimentary 30-minute consultation. This gives us space to determine fit and ensure I’m the right therapist to support your work. You can request a consultation using the “Schedule a Consultation” button at the top of this page.

• If you see a slot: I recommend booking it immediately, as consultation spots tend to fill quickly.

• If you do not see a time that works: Please email me directly. I often have cancellations or shifting availability that doesn't always make it to the public calendar, and I can add you to my priority waitlist.

I offer both. For local clients, I provide in-person therapy at my office in downtown Muskegon (convenient to Grand Haven, Holland, and Grand Rapids). For busy professionals throughout Michigan, I offer secure, HIPAA-compliant virtual therapy. This allows you to access high-level care from the privacy of your home or office, regardless of your location in the state.

Individuals:
$185 per 50-minute session; 75 minute sessions are also available.

Couples:
$225 per 60-minute session; 90 minutes are also available, and highly recommended for couples.

I accept all major credit/debit cards, Health Savings Accounts (HSA), and Flex Spending Accounts (FSA).

I am a specialized, cash-pay practice and do not directly accept insurance.

Can I still get reimbursed? Yes. If you have a PPO plan with out-of-network benefits, you may still be eligible for partial reimbursement. I also provide monthly superbills if you prefer to submit claims independently.

To support this process, I partner with Thrizer, which is a platform that simplifies out-of-network reimbursement by submitting claims on your behalf.

Offices can feel clinical and performative. If you're in West Michigan, we can meet where life actually happens—whether that’s a walk along the lakeshore to clear your head or in the privacy of your own space. It’s about getting out of a 'patient' chair and into a setting where you can actually speak plainly.

I’m direct, I pay attention, and I’ll say what I see as it’s happening. I don’t hide behind clinical language. I talk like a person. I take notes, I react, and when something real comes up, we don’t just move past it.

Yeah, I hear that a lot.

This isn’t a space where you come in, talk about your week, and leave feeling a little better but nothing actually changes. I’m paying attention. I’m going to notice patterns, point things out, and ask you to look at what’s really going on, not just what’s easy to say.

We’re not just talking about what happened. We’re getting into why it keeps happening and what needs to shift. If you’re looking for a place to just unload and be agreed with, I’m probably not the right fit. If you’re ready to be honest and actually work with what’s coming up, this will feel different.

It depends. There’s no one-size-fits-all timeline when it comes to healing. The pace is shaped by what you’re carrying, what you want, and how your nervous system responds to the work.

Some people come in for short-term support and clarity. Others stay longer because the roots run deep. If you're looking for quick fixes, this probably isn’t the space for you. But if you're ready to do real lasting work, I’ll meet you there.

I believe in being transparent about where I can offer the most value—and where I cannot. To ensure ethical and effective care, I do not work with:

• Children and Adolescents: My practice is focused on adults (18+), families, and couples. I may work with adolescents 16+ on a case-by-case basis.

• Active Physical Violence in Relationships: I do not provide couples therapy when active physical violence or severe coercive control is present. In these situations, joint therapy is clinically contraindicated because it can compromise safety.

• Acute Crisis or Higher Level of Care: As a private practitioner, I do not have the infrastructure to safely treat active, untreated substance dependency, severe eating disorders, or acute suicidality requiring 24-hour monitoring.

• Custody or Legal Evaluations: I do not provide legal counsel, child custody evaluations, or court testimony for my therapy clients. My role is strictly limited to your clinical care.
