All services provided via telehealth or in-person, depending on clients preference

Although I specialize in treating trauma, depression/anxiety, and substance use related issues, I work with a diverse network of clients, with a range of mental health needs. Some common issues that I work with are:

Intake Evaluation and Assessment

For all new clients, an intake is conducted at the first full session to gather information of one’s
biological, psychological, and social history and presenting issue. This allows the provider a full picture of
the client in determining the best course of treatment moving forward.

Individual Therapy

For ages 18+, individual therapy is curated to fit your needs and therapeutic goals utilizing a trauma-
informed, client-centered, culturally attuned framework through Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT),
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Family Systems, and Strengths Based approaches.

Blackbird Behavioral Health operates as an Out-of-Network Provider, who does not hold a contract with your insurance carrier. The full session rate is required by the time of your service. For more information on requesting reimbursement through your insurance.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

  1. Reach out. Get in touch with me via email. I will get back to you as soon as possible approximately within 3 business days.
  2. Schedule a 10–20-minute complimentary phone consultation call. If you decide you want to work with me, I can get you set up with a client portal to fill out the initial paperwork. Once the initial paperwork is received, an intake appointment can be made.
  3. Schedule an Intake Appointment. For all new clients, an intake (60 minutes) is conducted at the first full session to gather information of one’s biological, psychological, and social history and presenting issues. This allows the therapist to get a full picture of the client in determining the best course of treatment moving forward. Therapeutic goals will be discussed collaboratively. *Note, this is the only appointment that feels like an interview. Moving forward, therapy appointments feel more natural and conversational.
  4.  Get a Recurring Time Slot. After the first appointment, I prefer to work with clients weekly or biweekly. This is important for building rapport. Also, having your appointment at the same time each week provides routine for building a good foundation of a new therapeutic relationship.

Yes! The intake process starts with a free phone consultation that lasts approximately 10-20 minutes. This allows us time to get to know each other and answer any questions you have about starting therapy.

All cancellations must be made at least 24 hours prior to the appointment time for no charge. Any late cancellations in less than 24 hour notice and no shows will be charged at the full rate. 

Following the intake, every session thereafter will be 55 minutes. Therapy is tailored to each individual’s needs, the presenting issue, and your short- and long-term goals. Together we will collaborate on how these goals can best be met. Due to the inability to predict your journey of growth and healing, determining the duration of treatment is ethically impossible.

Just yourself! All important information including forms, payment, etc. is collected through an online client portal prior to your first appointment.

At this time, I cannot accept insurance.  I am an Out-of-Network Provider, and do not hold a contract with any insurance carriers. 

Out-of-Network providers are paid directly by the client. Clients can submit claims and request for reimbursement to their insurance carriers after services have been rendered.
