Therapy Services
Q. How do I start therapy?
Typically we meet for an initial consultation to determine personal fit and goals, answer questions, and determine a consistent meeting time. We strive to create a safe space in which we can explore with privacy and confidentiality.
Q: How long are sessions?
Sessions are typically 45 minutes for individuals and 60 minutes for couples.
Q: How long does therapy last?
Each person is unique. How long you stay in therapy depends on the scope and complexity of issues addressed and your desire to continue. The first couple of sessions will help us determine the optimal context as well as the broad concepts of your therapeutic goals.
Q. What issues do you treat?
I treat a wide variety of issues including depression (loneliness, feeling blah, unmotivated, hopeless, tearful), anxiety (worrying a lot about different things, tension, problems sleeping), relationship issues (problems trusting, conflict with family, in-laws, co-workers, finding a partner), shame (never feeling good enough, addicted to accomplishments), career dilemmas (hating your job but feeling stuck, changing careers, job loss) and low self-esteem (lacking confidence in one’s abilities, undeserving of good things). I work primarily with adults and adolescents.
Q. What about medication? Medication can be a valuable addition in addition to talk therapy. We have a trusted network of referrals to offer you.

Q: Session Fees:
- Individual - $250
- EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) - $300 - $400
- Couples/Dyads - $300 (triads/multiple partners are +$50 for each additional partner)
- Sliding Scale - If you do not see your insurance company on my panel or you do not think you can afford therapy, call or email me. Let's see what we can figure out together. If for some reason we cannot work together, I will work with you to find someone who can.

Cancellation Policy
We require 48hr cancellation notification at no cost. Coming late to the session will still require you to pay for the full session even though the time will not be prolonged. You will be fully responsible to cover the cost of the session that you do not attend without prior 48hr notification.
Note: insurance companies do not provide reimbursement for canceled sessions; fees for late cancellations are the client’s responsibility.
