“From the initial intake session, Albania struck me as warm, intelligent, direct, holistic, with a solution-oriented and embodied/somatic approach. I'm looking forward to beginning work together.”

“Albania has a fantastic approach with therapy where she empowers you to think more about whatever it is that might be bothering you, helping you get to the root of limiting beliefs, connecting things you may not have thought of, and gives you plenty of variety in practices and tools to try. She works with whatever your style may be and has been amazing at what she recalls, checks in about, and is always real and isn't afraid to share something about herself that might strength the connect you have with her. She's warm and authentic, she lets her humor come out and goes with the flow of wherever the therapy session takes you. She has been such a help for me as I've navigated many difficult and stressful events the past year and a half. Just when I think I'm good, what feels like a simple conversation leads way to discovering an area I'm more sensitive about that I'm holding back on. Albania is truly an amazing therapist who cares deeply for her patients.”

What should a new client know about working with you?

"In the first couple of sessions, I gather information for a full assessment, a treatment plan with goals, and provide clinical recommendations. After, sessions are intended to share educational information and evidenced-based tools and experiences. I provide a gentle approach that doesn’t over-activate your nervous system. We lovingly challenge and interrupt you, to make the most of the time together and disrupt patterns with curiosity and non-judgemental reflections. You will increase your awareness of your patterns, learn how to apply the skills learned and heal wounds, and expand your resiliency and confidence to move through challenges. Sessions are a co-created space, where you are an active participant, in and outside of therapy, as well as a recipient of our support. To get the most out of any type of therapy, it's important to apply what you have learned in your day-to-day life. "

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
