“My fiancé and I have tried couples therapy in the past, but struggled to find a therapist who felt like a good fit...until we came across Eileen. She's very solution-oriented, which we love. During our sessions, she has helped us to come to a better understanding of each other and always keeps our goals in mind. She's very warm, non-judgmental, and authentic. I leave our sessions feeling lighter and empowered to make positive changes. I truly look forward to our future sessions.”

Getting to know Eileen Mcmillen Bates
As a marriage and family therapist, I'm committed to helping individuals, couples, and families increase confidence, improve communication, and deepen intimacy in their most significant relationships. I hold a Bachelor's degree and a Master's in Community and International Development from Andrews University, and a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from Christian Theological Seminary. With over five years of experience working with children, teens, and adults from diverse backgrounds, orientations, and cultures, I bring a broad perspective to my practice.
I believe that life is about relationships first, and everything else is just details. Whether I'm working with you as an individual or as part of a couple or family, my hope is to help you create healthy and fulfilling relationships with yourself and with others.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My work focuses on helping you identify your strengths, clarify your goals, and discover a path forward that excites you. I believe you are the expert of your life, which is why I take a collaborative approach in helping you feel empowered to work towards your desired goals for yourself and your relationships.

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.
