  • Accelerated Resolution Therapy

    Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a cutting-edge therapy approach that I am thrilled to offer. ART is a highly effective, evidence-based therapy that can help you rapidly overcome trauma, anxiety, and other emotional challenges.

    ART works by reprogramming how your brain stores traumatic memories, helping you process them in a safe and controlled manner. This can lead to quick and lasting relief from symptoms such as anxiety, depression, phobias, low-self esteem, ADHD, PTSD and so much more.

Change is Possible and I’m are here to help.

Hey, Girl Hey!

You’re in the right place.

I’m Autumn and I'm here to offer you a space where you can be unapologetically yourself. As your therapist, I'm committed to showing up authentically — expect me to be honest about my own mistakes, bold when necessary, and always validating of your experiences and how they've impacted you.

I thrive on diving into the tough stuff. Whether it's sex, money, or challenging societal norms, I'm comfortable with those seemingly "uncomfortable" topics. But don't worry, I also love to sprinkle in some humor and joy because let's face it, self-discovery can be a wild and wonderful ride.

I believe in walking the talk. That's why I'm invested in my own growth and development. I don't expect my clients to go anywhere I haven't gone myself. I know first-hand how hard it can be to commit to the therapeutic process, but I also know the incredible transformations that can result from that commitment.

When I'm not helping clients, you can find me starting my mornings with coffee, meditation, and a little trap music. My clients often describe me as fun, supportive, and challenging — because let's be real, growth isn't always easy, but it's always worth it.

You have come to the right place. Go from surviving to thriving.

Take the first step towards reclaiming your life today.

 FAQs

  • Therapy can be vulnerable and new, so it’s natural to be nervous. It can be difficult to imagine the words around what you are feeling. Maybe you've experienced feeling tounge tied when trying to open up to friends or loved ones in the past. The fear around that can feel overwhelming. It takes courage to start going to therapy. The fact that you are on this website, looking for help, and reading this right now shows that you are being brave and seeking help.

    Therapy is a space where you can be yourself and come just as you are, including feeling nervous. I’m committed to finding a way to care for your nervousness and ensure sessions are as comfortable as possible.

    I’m here if you want to talk about it during a free phone consultation.

  • It’s normal if you don’t feel ready to share everything. During our sessions, it will always be up to you if you feel ready to talk about something or not. It’s my job to give you space to slowly start to work through the tough stuff. Gradually and at a pace that feels comfortable to you, you can share what you feel ready to share

    You can also share with me that you are nervous to open up about something and we can talk about that too. Whatever is present for you. Whatever you are going through. Bring that to session and we can explore that together.

  • If you open up to me, I will not think you are crazy, I will think you are courageous and human. Many of my clients have had the same fear (that people would think they are crazy).

    Through my own life journey and working with my clients, I know how ‘normal’ your experience is.

    You're not being dramatic or "too much." Nothing you can say will cause me to judge you.

    I know nobody's perfect, we all struggle, we are humans trying to human.

    Whatever it is you're going through, I provide a safe space where you can feel heard and supported without judgement

  • Overall, you can think of the first session as a free-flowing conversation through which we start getting to know each other. I’ll invite you to share more about yourself and we can also talk about what’s worked or not worked for your mental health in the past.

    Some questions that I like to ask during a first session include:

    -What brought you to therapy? What goals would you like to reach by going to therapy? What do I need to know about you to understand your current challenges?

    You can ask me questions as well. You might be curious about about why I'm a therapist or how I've helped other clients like you.

    The most important part of a first session is to notice how you feel during and after the session. If you feel supported, seen, and at-ease with me, we can discuss if you’d like to meet again.

  • I am currently an in-network provider with Aetna, Cigna, Oscar, Oxford, and United Healthcare in North Carolina and Florida and Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina. Your insurance can be verified during the consultation call and you will be informed of your possible co-pay. It is always recommended that you call your insurance company on your own to learn what your benefits will cover. Please be aware that by using your insurance, I am required to provide a diagnosis for your therapy sessions to be covered, and insurance can determine how many sessions you are allowed.

    For other insurances, you may have out-of-network benefits, which means that your insurance may reimburse you for the cost of your therapy sessions. I will first check to confirm you have out-of-network benefits. If so, I will use Thrizer, a payment application that processes your claims, so that you are only charged your co-payment for the appointment.

  • My current rate is $150 per individual session.

  • Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a cutting-edge evidenced-based form of psychotherapy that uses rapid eye movements to help clients reprocess traumatic memories and experiences. It's a safe and effective treatment for various mental health issues, including PTSD, anxiety, phobias, depression, grief, addiction and more. It offers a quicker and more comfortable alternative to traditional talk therapy for many individuals. ART can lead to significant improvements in a relatively short period, making it an attractive option for those seeking efficient and lasting relief from emotional distress.

  • In accordance with the No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate“ explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, providers and facilities need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for services. Make sure your provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your service. You can also request the Good Faith Estimate before you schedule the service.

    If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
