All sessions are virtual at this time, either via video conference or over the phone
Individual Psychotherapy
I provide one-on-one talk therapy to adults. This can range from weekly sessions based on building skills through CBT and DBT to more effectively navigate life, to more intensive, higher frequency work that targets deeper causes and resolves more fundamental dysfunctional patterns depending on your individual goals and situation.
Parent Consultation
I work with parents, either individually or together, to navigate challenges with their child’s behavior, family communication, or to deal with common anxieties and frustrations that come with parenthood
Couples Therapy
I work with couples to help them understand one another, communicate more effectively, clarify their mutual goals and values, and offer support in navigating changes. I work with couples at all stages of relationships.
I work with people navigating:
PTSD, CPTSD: trauma responses, including dissociation and emotional dysregulation.
Anxiety: nervousness, panic attacks, feelings of dread
Depression: feelings of worthlessness, excessive sadness or crying, feeling stuck, burnout, irritation and anger
Relationship difficulties and attachment issues, including codependency, fear of abandonment, and unstable relationships
Dysfunctional family of origin dynamics
Sexual identity and sexual difficulties
Gender identity (including affirming care, self expression and exploration, and helping to navigate intolerance and discrimination)
Life transitions and adjustments: marriage and divorce, breakups, pregnancy, childbirth, illness, relocation, starting or ending school
Stress: burnout, overwhelm, excessive anger, psychosomatic experiences of stress
Eating Disorders: disordered eating, body image concerns, using food/eating/exercise/body manipulation to address or avoid intense feelings
Grief: death, divorce, breakups, and other types of loss
Session Length and Frequency
Most sessions are 50 minutes, and the minimum frequency for regular individual therapy is weekly sessions.
Cancellation Policy
Sessions must be cancelled by email 48 hours before scheduled. Cancellations after that time will be considered missed sessions, which are charged at the full session fee. Missed sessions are usually not covered by insurance. If you need to cancel with less notice, but are able to reschedule before your next scheduled session, there will be no extra charge to reschedule.
Insurance
I am in network with Cigna, Aetna, United Healthcare, Oxford, and Oscar Health. For others, I am happy to supply documentation to you for you to file an out-of-network claim with your insurance provider. Please talk to them directly for more information about your out-of-network benefits.
Cost of Service
The out of pocket cost for initial sessions are $180 and regular sessions are $160. There are a limited number of sliding scale spots, based on availability and demonstrated financial need.
Ending Therapy
If you have concerns about your therapy, please let me know, and we can figure out the best resolution together, whether that is a change in our work, or a referral to another provider. In terms of therapeutic process, it’s ideal to have a final session where we both know in advance it will be the last session, but I realize that’s not always possible. In those cases, please let me know in writing that you would not like to continue.
