There are times we need someone to listen and we need to make a change. A catalyst propels us into wanting to do things differently. As an experienced clinician of over 30 years, I can help you navigate through this process. My style of counseling is focused on being compassionate and evidenced based in a safe and therapeutic environment to work on the issues of concern. As a seasoned professional, my expertise has evolved around depression, anxiety, substance use issues and trauma to offer the best care possible. My goal is to guide you with the opportunity to explore, share and develop or re-engage coping skills that will be more aligned with your authentic self.

In addition to DBR, we utilize other therapeutic methods like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as powerful tools for recovery. EMDR helps reframe distressing memories, while CBT encourages reshaping negative thought patterns to foster emotional resilience and healthier reactions to life’s challenges.
EMDR Intensives – An Immersive Healing Experience
EMDR Intensives provide a unique opportunity for deep therapeutic work without the limitations of a typical 50-minute session. You can fully immerse yourself in the healing process, allowing for greater momentum and depth in addressing core issues. By eliminating travel and minimizing interruptions, you can focus completely on your healing and be present in the moment.
These concentrated sessions enable deeper exploration of trauma, fostering a more significant capacity for change and transformation in a shorter period.

Customizable over 2-5 days
Charter Counseling is an out-of-network provider. This means that payment is required at the time of the session, but we provide Superbills to help you obtain out-of-network reimbursement through your insurance company.
Insurance Reimbursement:
Depending on your insurance plan, you may qualify for out-of-network reimbursement. Charter Counseling does not submit claims directly but will provide documentation to assist you in the process.
Here are key questions to ask your insurance company:
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy. You can request this estimate before scheduling or at any time during treatment.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. For more information, visit cms.gov/nosurprises.
