Cross-Cultural Counseling
I take multicultural counseling seriously because I identify as a bicultural person. I was born and raised in Estonia and moved to the United Kingdom in my early twenties.
After a ten-year career in the corporate sector in London, I moved to the US to join my family. All my life, I’ve had to adapt to the dominant culture and learn how to succeed despite language and cultural differences.
Acculturation
I know what it means to acculturate and build new connections, grieve the past, question identity, navigate intercultural relationships, and start a new career.
My immigrant identity makes me a humble explorer and empathetic to my client’s values, beliefs, behavioral norms, and expectations.
Cultural validation
I am fortunate because I have the ability to see my client as they are and not through a dominant culture lens and all the expectations that come with that view. I respect and enjoy differences and stand by marginalized communities because being transcultural is a major part of my identity.
I am committed to social justice and anti-oppression work and accept Oregon Health Plan (OHP) and can offer pro-bono and sliding scale slots to qualified BIPOC clients and refugees.

Using Your Insurance (Out-of-Network Reimbursement)
In Oregon, I am currently in network with PacificSource, Providence, and Moda, and I also accept insurance through the Headway platform.
In Utah, services are offered on a private-pay basis only.
If you have questions about insurance coverage, rates, or getting started, please don’t hesitate to reach out for more information—I’m happy to help you explore your options.
I offer superbills as an option for clients who wish to seek out-of-network reimbursement from their insurance. A superbill is a detailed receipt that you can submit directly to your insurance company and includes all required information such as provider credentials, diagnosis codes, service dates, and fees paid. Reimbursement is determined by your insurance plan and is handled directly between you and your insurer.
If you have questions or need support submitting a superbill, I’m happy to help guide you through the process.
Sliding Scale
If my fee is a barrier, I may offer a sliding scale under certain circumstances. Please inquire about the availability of my sliding scale slots when you first contact me.
Cancellation Policy
If you cannot attend a session, please cancel at least 48 hours beforehand. Otherwise, you may be charged for the full rate of the session.
