At this time I am able to bill OHP CareOregon/Healthshare for therapy services through my contract with Salus, LLC.
I am not currently in network with any other insurance companies. I am working towards becoming in network with Regence/BCBS, Aetna, PacificSource, and MODA in the coming months.
If you pay for services out of pocket, you may request a superbill, which you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement. If you choose this option, I recommend contacting your insurance to clarify if you are able to receive reimbursement for out of network coverage. You are responsible for knowing your benefits.

I believe quality, affirming mental health care should be accessible, while also maintaining a sustainable practice. My full fee reflects the specialized training, labor, and resources required to provide this care. It also directly funds reduced-fee slots in my practice, allowing me to provide equitable therapy to folks experiencing financial hardship or structural barriers to wealth.
A limited number of reduced-fee spots are reserved for clients who are experiencing financial hardship. Feel free to inquire about this option during your consultation.
My reduced-fee spots are currently full. Please reach out in the future to inquire if there are any available.
