Experiential Therapy in Florida FAQ

Experiential therapy creates opportunities to have new experiences in the present moment, rather than only talking about a problem after the fact. Instead of building intellectual understanding alone, sessions work directly with emotion, the body, imagination, and relational patterns as they show up live — which is often what actually shifts a pattern that talk therapy alone hasn’t moved.

Insight and change aren’t the same thing. Most stuck patterns are held in the nervous system, body, and implicit memory — not just in conscious understanding. This approach works with relationship, embodiment, and creativity together, so change happens on a felt and lived level, not just a cognitive one.

People who are high-functioning, self-aware, and have often already done significant work on themselves — therapy, reading, reflection — but still feel a gap between what they understand and how they actually feel or behave. If insight alone hasn’t been enough, experiential work is built for that gap specifically.

I provide experiential psychotherapy to individuals in Florida entirely via telehealth. Sessions may draw on various experiential modalities (such as Brainspotting, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and somatic awareness) matched to what the client needs rather than a single fixed protocol. All of these translate effectively to telehealth, since much of the work is internally guided (body sensation, imagery, focused attention) rather than dependent on physical proximity.

Yes. Techniques like Brainspotting, ART, and somatic awareness work rely on guided internal attention rather than in-person contact, and many Florida clients find it easier to stay present and grounded in their own familiar space during sessions.

I deeply value this work and honor the skill & capacity needed to create a safe and nourishing space for my clients. For this reason, I do not take on very many clients in order to maintain the integrity of our work together.

I will remember the names of your loved ones. I will want to see pictures of your baby or fur-baby. I will be genuinely curious to bear witness to all you have to express. Session costs are reflective of this care. Please inquire by reaching out via the contact form. And because I also believe in the importance of accessibility to this work, sliding scale options are available depending on need and availability.

I am considered “out of network” with insurance companies, which means that all services are paid out of pocket. Your insurance may cover services for out-of-network providers. I partner with a service that can check your estimated insurance coverage for therapy with me. Please use the following link: https://mentaya.com/checkbenefits/9EVAt7RYEIeUI1Kgz3fz

You can also contact your insurance company directly to access information regarding your mental health benefits. If your health insurance agrees to reimburse you for your sessions, you will pay for services directly and I will provide you with a monthly Superbill that you can submit for reimbursement.

Reimbursement rates will depend on your plan/provider.
