Professional statement

Dr. Arrington works with adults who are carrying anxiety, sadness, relationship stress, identity questions, or the weight of family and cultural expectations. Many of her clients are looking for a space where they can slow down, feel understood, and make sense of what they’re experiencing. She has a deep commitment to supporting Black, Latine/a/x, Indigenous, AAPI, and LGBTQIA+ clients, offering a therapeutic space where their full identities are honored and welcomed.

Her approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in cultural humility. Dr. Arrington blends psychodynamic therapy with ACT, CBT, and mindfulness‑based practices to help clients understand the patterns that shape their lives while building practical tools for change. She creates a space where clients can speak freely, explore openly, and show up exactly as they are—whether that means talking through complex emotions, laughing, pausing to reflect, or simply taking a breath.

Dr. Arrington brings extensive clinical experience across outpatient, community, and school‑based settings. Her work is grounded in evidence‑based practice and a deep respect for the lived experiences her clients carry. She is committed to ongoing learning and to providing care that is both thoughtful and culturally responsive.

She offers remote therapy sessions with flexible scheduling to support accessibility and comfort. Her practice is designed to be a welcoming, affirming environment where clients can explore their experiences at a pace that feels right for them and begin moving toward a life that feels more grounded, connected, and true to who they are.


Message to clients

Before we begin our work together, I want you to know that therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to perform, edit yourself, or have everything figured out. You can come exactly as you are. You don’t need the perfect words or a clear starting point. You can ramble, pause, rethink something halfway through, laugh, swear a little, or sit quietly and gather your thoughts. All of that is welcome here.

My hope is that our time together feels like a place where you can finally exhale. I approach therapy with cultural humility, curiosity, and respect for the experiences that have shaped you. I’ll invite you to explore the patterns, emotions, and histories that influence your life, while also helping you build practical tools that support clarity, grounding, and meaningful change. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you, and we’ll make sense of things together.

Most of all, I want you to know that you don’t have to navigate any of this alone. Reaching out for support is an act of courage, and I’m here to meet you with warmth, steadiness, and care. My hope is that therapy becomes a space where you feel more connected to yourself, more empowered in your choices, and more able to live a life that feels aligned with who you are and who you’re becoming.

Therapist's note

We currently only accept credit cards and some HSA for payment.

We accept clients claiming on their OON benefits..

We provide superbills for insurance reimbursement. And offer a service that allows you to only pay your co-insurance for out-of-network.”

We also accept Loveland Therapy Vouchers and Mental Health Fund (MHF) for QTBIPOC Vouchers.

To make things easier for you, we use a payment app (Thrizer) that does all the paperwork and billing for you.

Either:

Use Thrizer to pay the full fee, and wait to receive reimbursement for your covered benefit for free.

Or pay 5% convenience fee and only pay your co-insurance. Thrizer will bill your insurance for the rest (i.e., if you have 80% coverage, then you pay 20% of your session fee and we bill your insurance company for the other 80%). ​
