Hello! I am Dr. Nora, a Licensed Psychologist focused on showing up authentically to connect with individuals presenting with a variety of mental health needs. My background includes experience working with individuals across the lifespan in a multitude of setting types. I consider myself a forever learner, to not only help myself grow and thrive, but so that I can expand the tools I have to pass that empowerment to the people I meet and collaborate with in therapy. I take an integrative therapy approach to tailor my approach using evidenced based treatment approaches to my client's presenting needs and therapy goals.
I am an 'Out Of Network' (OON) provider for all insurance, though I am happy to provide a super bill for my client to submit for reimbursement to their insurance provider. I do not accept insurances for a variety of reasons, including privacy and confidentiality and ability to dictate my client's services to the individual's needs only, including type of therapy and number of sessions. Please reach out to your insurance provider to gain specific understanding of your selected plan in relation to OON providers.
I am an active member of PsyPact/E.Passport/APIT; I am able to see clients in the following states: AL, AZ, AR, CT, CO, DE, DC, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, ME, MD, MN, MO, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NC, OH, OK, PA, RI, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WV, WI.
A little more about me includes that I was born and raised in the midwest, moved around for many education and training experiences, and now call the Seattle area home. My family and I are happy that we've established roots in the area and engage in activities that help us connect to ourselves, each other, and our community. I enjoy anything related to the kitchen (baking, cooking, eating!) especially surrounded by family and friends, all things entertainment (movies, books, music), sports (cheering on Seattle Sounders and Go Cubbies and da Bears!), and moving my body in a way that makes me feel happy (distance running, walking, mini dance parties!).
Although this is not limited to the communities that I practice with, I am Polyamorous, Consensually Non-Monogamous (CNM)/Ethically Non-Monogamous (ENM), Fat, Body Neutrality, and Immuno-disorders aware/knowledgeable.
