Sessions are 45-50 minutes and can be booked weekly, bi-weekly or monthly depending on your goals and budget. We are happy to do a free consultation to answer any questions and discuss how to best schedule your treatment so it works for you.

We aim to offer affordable therapy options because we believe everyone deserves support. Our team includes counseling interns in training who provide individual therapy sessions for $50 each session. Their work is closely supervised to make sure you receive the best care possible. We do not accept insurance but we do accept HSA/FSA cards and provide super bills for insurance reimbursement. We also have sliding scale spots. Please ask about this if it is something that would be helpful for you.

We offer the latest technology in treating and reducing the symptoms of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder. This includes non-invasive brain stimulation (Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation). This is where you wear a neurotechnology headband in our office for 20 minutes. The headband is not painful and does not make any noise. It gently stimulates areas of your brain to help reduce the mood symptoms assocated with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder and the chronic pain from cramps associated with Endometriosis.
If you are struggling with:
You may be the one everyone depends on—capable, responsible, and holding everything together on the outside while quietly feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or unlike yourself on the inside. If you live with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), hormonal changes, or other cycle-related symptoms, you may have spent years wondering why your mood, anxiety, or ability to cope shifts so dramatically throughout the month, leaving you feeling dismissed, misunderstood, or like you're somehow failing. You are not broken, dramatic, or "too much." Your mind, body, hormones, and nervous system are deeply connected, and at Open Invite Therapy, we help you understand those connections so you can stop blaming yourself, start trusting your body again, and find lasting healing.
We are here to help:
A Nervous System and Cycle Informed Approach
My own journey navigating complex hormonal health symptoms led me to explore the connection between women’s hormones and mental health, including Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD). After years of searching for answers and learning to understand my own nervous system and body, I became passionate about helping other women who feel dismissed, overwhelmed, or alone in their experience. Today, I integrate both professional training and personal understanding to support women in finding healing, clarity, and hope.
Because of this passion, I have pursued advanced training in specialized approaches that integrate relational therapy, somatic healing, and evidence-based trauma treatment, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM), Somatic Experiencing (SE), and gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation (tDCS). Beyond my work with clients, I also train and supervise other therapists to become more cycle-informed, with the hope of expanding access to compassionate, specialized care for women. Together, these approaches allow us to support your nervous system in processing stored stress patterns, reducing symptoms, and helping you reconnect with clarity, self-trust, and a greater sense of emotional steadiness. Rather than focusing only on changing thoughts or managing symptoms, we work with the whole person—mind, body, and nervous system.
