Tennessee Individual and Marriage Counseling Services
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer in-person counseling services?
No: all sessions are virtual, allowing you to attend from the comfort and privacy of your own space.
Where are you licensed to provide therapy?
Individual, marital, and pre-marital therapy services are available to clients located in Tennessee only. I am currently an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, which means that I have completed a Master’s degree and fulfilled the requirements for a temporary license. However, I am working under supervision, gaining clinical experience to fulfil the requirements of a full, unrestricted license.

- Initial Intake Session (all services): $145 (50 minutes)

What is Acceptance & Integration Training (AAIT)?
AAIT helps you:
- Accept and navigate difficult thoughts and emotions
- Reduce reactivity
- Clarify your values

Do you accept insurance for counseling sessions?
Currently Private Pay Only:
This is a private pay practice and does not accept insurance at this time. This allows for greater privacy and flexibility in your care.
Optional:
I can provide a superbill for possible out-of-network reimbursement.
What is a Good Faith Estimate?

If you attend weekly sessions:
