My Approach to Therapy

I help those who are struggling under the weight of life changes, depression, anxiety, anger, and many other issues find ways to alleviate their suffering, and find coping skills to deal with their symptoms. I use cognitive behavioral therapy to examine the assumptions behind unhelpful thoughts and feelings and to provide practical guidance in changing problematic behavior or habits. This approach, combined with a compassionate, listening ear, can help you live a happier, healthier life.

My Practice & Services

I see clients for teletherapy sessions Wednesdays through Fridays, during the day and evenings. My fee is $175. I accept Aetna, BCBS, UHC, and Cigna.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

I am especially passionate about helping individuals navigate the aftermath of trauma. I specialize in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), a highly effective, evidence-based treatment designed specifically for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and trauma-related symptoms. I work with adults who have experienced single-incident traumas (such as accidents, medical trauma, or assaults) as well as complex, prolonged trauma (such as childhood abuse, domestic violence, first-responder trauma, or combat exposure). Whether your trauma occurred a month ago or decades ago, CPT can help you process it.

The Duration and Frequency of Therapy

I use brief, solutions-focused therapy, which means that clients have about 8-12 sessions before finishing. You will usually see changes after the first few sessions, and after a few months find that you are better equipped to handle the problems in your life.
