Low Tide offers Individual and Couples Counseling
Individual Therapy
Whether it is your first time seeking counseling or you have had prior experiences it can be intimidating to reach out. At Low Tide Counseling we try to make this process as easy and comfortable as possible. We specialize in treatment of the following mental health conditions:
Relationship Issues
Anxiety and perfectionism
Womens issues
Food and Body concerns
Couples Counseling
I specialize in treatment of couples, premarital, cohabitation and marital issues. Utilizing EFT and Gottman practices, my hope is to help you better understand each others needs and heal attachment wounds through the secure connection of your relationship. Every relationship has its ebbs and flows, and its important that we have the tools to work through these struggles, together.
Evidence Based Approach
Low tide utilizes evidence based practices when treating clients for a variety of issues, of these practices included are Cognitive Behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and mindfulness based therapies.
Person Centered Approach
We work with individuals and couples utilizing an approach that emphasizes the client(s) over the therapist. Each individual has their own unique life experiences, beliefs, values and feelings that deserve to be given appropriate space in a non judgmental environment. This approach involves listening, coaching, thinking together, and seeking/providing feedback.
Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT)
This form of therapy is an attachment style therapy and is utilized to increase relationship and strategies in the relationship. In couples work, this is utilized to assist couples in gaining awareness of their emotions, understanding them, and strengthening their relational bonds.

Low Tide couples therapy is self-pay only at this time. Doing couples work overtime, I’ve encountered increasing restrictions and administrative challenges with insurance companies that directly impact the quality and accessibility of care I can provide. These include:
Limitations in how insurance supports couples therapy, often requiring one partner to be diagnosed with a mental health condition, which may not reflect the nature of the work we’re doing.
Increased risk of insurance claw backs, where previously approved sessions are retroactively denied—putting both your care and financial wellbeing and my ability to offer sustainable services at risk.
Reduced flexibility and privacy, as insurance involvement often requires sharing clinical details that aren't always relevant or appropriate for couples work.
To maintain the integrity, privacy, and quality of the therapeutic process, I do not bill insurance for couples sessions. The rates for couples therapy are as follows:
3 hour intensives: $425
1.5 hour session: $220
1 hour session: $160
