My Approach to Helping
A trusting and supportive relationship forms the beginning of successful therapy. I will work with you to build on your areas of strength and develop greater self-understanding, personal growth and healing.

My professional training and work in diverse settings gives me the experience to understand and treat many situations and areas of concern. To learn more about me, click "visit my home page" above, or simply call or email me so that I can answer personally any questions you may have.

 

More Info About My Practice
My fee is $125 for a 50-minute session. I am considered an "out-of-network provider" by most insurance companies. This means that your insurance company could reimburse you for a portion of this fee or apply it to your deductible. Contact your insurance company to find out more about this benefit.

I occasionally reduce my fee for patients who cannot afford the full cost of therapy. If this is true for you, feel free to ask me about this possibility.

Please contact me by phone or e-mail to arrange an appointment or consultation. If you are interested in therapy, but would like to meet first to get a sense of who I am and how I work, I am happy to schedule a consultation, at no cost.

 

My Therapy Focus

Our early relationships play important roles in who we become as adults. As we live our lives, there are patterns to our relationships and our actions. Insight into where these patterns and reactions started can open the door to change. Through Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, we will work together to understand your early experiences and your current relationships and then, how each of these impacts who you are today. We will also look at your feelings and interactions in my office to better understand your relationships outside of my office. Developing this greater self-awareness can free you to approach your life in a whole new way.
