Quest: (n) a long and challenging journey to find something of great value
Services
I am in network with Aetna. Otherwise, services are private pay. I can provide a superbill for clients who wish to use their out-of-network benefits and be reimbursed by insurance.
I have partnered with Thrizer to help clients use their out-of-network benefits to save money on therapy. Thrizer takes the headache out of submitting superbills to insurance. Click here to use the benefits calculator: https://eligibility.thrizer.com/questcounseling

Prepare for the transition to parenthood with personalized, evidence-informed education and practical tools for the postpartum period. These consultations can help you understand what to expect emotionally and developmentally, create a plan for support, learn strategies for navigating common postpartum challenges, and build confidence in responding to your own needs and your baby’s needs.
This is an educational and consultative service—not psychotherapy, mental health treatment, diagnosis, or crisis care. It is designed for parents who want information, preparation, and practical skills before or during the postpartum transition. When concerns fall outside the scope of consultation, appropriate referrals to medical or mental health professionals can be provided.

Counseling Services
Trauma
Do you wake up with a feeling of dread? Feel like you’re white-knuckling through work and social interactions? Do the people in your life think you’re fine but on the inside you’re screaming? Trauma effects everyone differently, but the feeling of isolation and fear that it leaves behind can be long lasting and debilitating. I specialize in helping clients heal from trauma of all types and move forward with a values driven life. I am specially trained in recovery from childhood and adult physical and sexual abuse, and neglect.
Fertility
You have dreamed of having a family, but now you’ve received at diagnosis that has put you on the daunting path to fertility treatment. Caught between hope and fear, you wonder: How do you talk about it with loved ones? How do you navigate the medical minefield and emotional rollercoaster that is IVF, donor conception, surrogacy, and pregnancy loss? With specialized training in Fertility Counseling, I will walk the road with you, whatever may come.
Pregnancy & Postpartum Mental Health
Pregnancy and postpartum can be beautiful seasons of life, but they can also leave women feeling lost, alone, and grasping for a life-line. Postpartum depression, anxiety and other mood disorders affect 1 in 7 women, 1 in 10 men, and all new parents support. Let’s work together to trudge through the maddening, messy, wild, wonderful journey to parenthood. You can find joy again, even if it doesn’t look the way you expected.

My counseling approach is founded in cognitive, mindfulness, and body-based approaches. However, you are in the driver’s seat. I am the co-pilot. If you need new directions and a different approach we can change our goals and strategies. Personal interests can play a role as well. If you love art, writing, or music, for example, we can incorporate those aspects of your life into treatment.
