Getting to know Cheryl Hanson

I don't just like people, I appreciate people. I truly appreciate those who have suffered traumatic events and/or critical incidents (or years of them) and keep going. Walking alongside those who are hurting is my life focus. Physical pain and emotional pain look the same in the brain! I hold a Master's in Counseling Psychology from Jessup University and am a certified trauma therapist and certified child and adolescent trauma therapist. I also have certifications in somatic therapy and child and adolescent grief, and I am a trained and experienced Brainspotter. If you like talk therapy, we can do that. If you have tried talk therapy and feel the need to go deeper, then "bottom-up processing" may be the answer for you; that is what trauma therapy is all about. You don't have to tell me your story unless you want to-we can work with silence. I am a retired law enforcement officer with extensive experience working with people in crisis and chaotic situations. Though I never served in the military myself, my family has a very deep military history, and there are many parallels between the careers. It is very important for military and first responders, including dispatchers and emergency room personnel, to have a support system in place BEFORE the "numbness" sets in. It would be my honor to be a part of your support system. I may not wear the same size, but I have probably taken some steps in your shoes.

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.
