Why I became a therapist

Therapy changed my life. It made it a living hell. I’m kidding, it helped tremendously, so I become a therapist myself. (That almost rhymed) 

 

Before therapy, I used humor & alcohol to shield me from the discomfort I was seemingly born with. I felt like an actor in my own life, doing my best impression of a joyful person. I dared not burden you with my “baggage”, but it was too heavy to bear alone. And that's when I found a therapist to hold it with me. 

 

I'm sober today and humor prevails. Laughter is a major tool in my toolbox, but therapy gave me more. I've built a strong foundation with these tools; strong enough for your “baggage”, I’m sure. (That one rhymed. Fuck yeah)*

 

The key to successful therapy, more than anything, is finding a therapist you personally click with. This therapeutic alliance can't be taught, learned, or faked. It's something that happens organically. So if you want, give me a call, text, or email and we'll feel it out!

Me age 3

Most therapists acquire skills throughout their lives that make them naturally fit for the job. At a young age, I was hypervigilant and hypersensitive to the moods of people around me. I became an expert at reading the room, checking the vibes, and noticing tiny details about people's behavior. I developed strong interpersonal skills, strong empathy, and a profound yearning to help others. I was a highly sensitive kid, and things weren't always easy, but my difficulties became assets and I know yours can too.

Good Faith Estimate

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
