We explore any concerns you may have about your gender identity and/or sexual orientation in a safe non-judgmental space so you can unmask and be your genuine self. 

The cost of a 45-50 minutete session is $150. in the US or 150 euro in the Netherlands.

The first session is typically 45-60 minutes and sessions after that are 45-50 minutes long. If you want longer sessions we can discuss that along with pricing just let me know. 

No, I do not. I am not paneled with any insurance companies as I live outside the United States. I can provide a superbill which you can submit to your insurance for possible out of network (OON) reimbursement (only clients in the US).

No, we can work together as long as you need and there are goals we are working on in therapy. 

If you live in Idaho, Oregon, or Utah we are still good as those are the states I'm licensed in the U.S, and can see anyone 18+ in the Netherlands as well. If you live outside those states  or the Netherlands due to licensure restrictions I would NOT legally  be able to provide you with any services.
