Counseling and Psychological Assessments
for
Children, Teens, and Adults
If you are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or otherwise overwhelmed, you have come to the right place! You may feel stuck and not sure what to do and making an appointment to meet with a counselor can also feel too much. I am here to help you feel better and work with you taking small steps toward change and happier you.
Everyone has struggles in their lives and no one or nothing is perfect. We can let the struggles push us down and defeat us or take small steps toward change and gain control over our lives. Self care is important for our success and for both physical and mental health. We live in a busy world and often feel guilty or lazy when we are not "doing something productive." But it is important to take care of yourself both mentally and physically, take time for yourself, and relax to be better able to face those struggles. The beach is my "Zen" and place of a relaxation. I go there when I need to relax my mind. Lets find your "Zen" where you can go to relax, in person or in your mind, to help both your body and mind heal. Everyone deserves to be happy!
I am looking forward to getting to know you!

Psychological Assessments
Psychological Assessments are meant to assist with diagnosis, recommendations to address the conditions in question, look at individual strengths, and make recommendations for home, school, work, and/ or college settings.
Typically the evaluations consist of the parent or client consultation meeting, parent and/ or client interview, face-to-face testing (3 to 6 hours depending on the referral reason), collecting information from other sources (e.g. teachers, therapists, etc.), scoring of the forms, interpretation and report writing, and a feedback meeting.
You will receive a comprehensive evaluation report including the diagnosis and appropriate recommendations when the evaluation is completed that you can share with your doctor, psychiatrists, pediatrician, school, college, work, etc. Currently, these evaluations are completed from the initial consultation to the feedback session in about 3 to 4 weeks depending on the depth and length of the evaluation.
If you are not using insurance, the out-of-pocket-costs depends on the referral reason and the depth of the evaluation, and a Good Fate Estimate is given if no insurance is used. Insurance is filed for in-network benefits for the panels that I currently accept (see FAQ) but to know your benefits, please contact your insurance company customer service number on the back of your card.
