50-minute initial consultation (free of charge)
I know that you may have many questions or concerns as you consider starting therapy. I welcome the chance to discuss any and all of them, and feel that ensuring a good fit between therapist and client is an important first step. Please call or send me a confidential email to schedule your session.
Individual Therapy for Adolescents and Adults (50-minute session)
Many of the clients I see are individuals. They may be adolescents or adults facing a difficult time; parents seeking consultation on problems with their children; or adults seeking help with difficulty in their work, relationships or other aspects of life. In each case, I seek to clarify their goals and the ways we can work towards them together. Most of these sessions are in person, in my office. I occasionally offer phone sessions where mutually desirable to facilitate treatment when a client has moved out of the area, or has other scheduling demands that make an office visit difficult.
Couples Therapy (50-minute session or 100-minute session)
Much of my practice also includes couples. Couples therapy has its unique qualities and challenges. For this reason, I offer both a traditional 50-minute session, and also an extended 100-minute session. After many years, I have come to believe that there are common obstacles that plague marriages, and many things that can help. Click here to read more on on this....
Family Therapy (50-minute session or 100-minute session)
When families are experiencing difficulties, everyone's voice needs to be heard. In my experience with both individuals and families, I have found that families themselves are often a valuable resource in tackling and solving difficult challenges.
Fees and Insurance
I do not work directly with insurance companies; however, if you have coverage from your insurance company for an out-of-network provider, I will provide you with the paperwork you need to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. If you are not sure if your insurance covers out-of-network, please contact them prior to starting treatment.
I firmly believe that cost should not be an obstacle in getting the help you need. For this reason, I offer a sliding scale, based on financial need. Please call or email me to schedule an appointment, and we can discuss this issue, along with any other concerns you may have.
