1. What issues do you specialize in treating?

I specialize in treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), anxiety disorders, and supporting clients through faith transitions, identity exploration, and life direction challenges. I use evidence-based approaches like ERP and ACT.

2. Do you offer virtual therapy in Utah, Colorado, and Texas?

Yes! I offer secure, HIPAA-compliant virtual therapy to clients living in Utah, Colorado, and Texas. You can attend sessions from the comfort and privacy of your home.

3. What is Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy?

ERP is a type of cognitive behavioral therapy used to treat OCD and anxiety disorders. It involves gradually facing feared thoughts or situations without engaging in compulsions or avoidance, helping you retrain your brain and reduce anxiety over time.

4. What can I expect from therapy with you?

Therapy with me is structured, supportive, and goal-oriented. We’ll work collaboratively to understand what’s happening, reduce avoidance, and build clarity around what truly matters to you. I’ll guide you with practical tools, evidence-based strategies, and steady support.

5. Do you accept insurance?

Yes. I accept many major insurance plans and can verify your benefits before starting. I also offer a private pay option at $150 per 50-minute session.

6. Can I use my HSA or FSA to pay for therapy?

In most cases, yes — therapy is considered a qualified medical expense for Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA). I can provide documentation if needed.

7. What’s the difference between ACT and ERP?

These are all evidence-based therapies:

• ERP is most commonly used to treat OCD by reducing compulsions.

• ACT focuses on accepting thoughts and committing to meaningful action, especially helpful for anxiety.

8. Do you work with people who are questioning or leaving their faith?

Yes. I offer therapy for individuals going through faith transitions or religious deconstruction, especially those leaving high-control environments. Together we can explore grief, identity, and how to reconnect with your own values and sense of self.

9. Do you offer free consultations?

Yes. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation so you can ask questions and get a feel for whether working together feels like a good fit.
