Psychotherapy differs for everyone but the primary focus is creating a safe space where you can freely express your private thoughts and feelings. In general, therapy will allow you to learn more about yourself and your relationships, and to identify strategies for coping with difficulties. As your therapist, I will help you explore your thoughts and feelings as they arise, connect them to experiences in your past and present, and support you in making changes to promote happiness and well-being.

Psychotherapy rates will be discussed during your initial consultation. I am contracted with select insurance companies. I am also happy to provide all necessary documentation to submit for out-of-network reimbursement. Individuals who have out-of-network benefits are often reimbursed between 50% to 90% for psychotherapy after their deductible is met.

What is your cancellation policy?
If you need to cancel your session, I ask that you do so 24 hours prior to the session. If you are unable to cancel with this advance notice, you will be responsible for the cost of your session unless we are able to reschedule within the same week. Please note that insurance companies will not reimburse you for missed session fees.

Do you prescribe medication?
As a psychologist, I do not have the ability to prescribe medication; however, if it is determined that you would benefit from the addition of medication, I will make a referral to a psychiatrist to best meet your needs. Some people who at first believe they need medications find that their symptoms are greatly relieved by talking with a psychologist. Others benefit most from a combination of therapy and medication.

Yes. Your confidentiality is protected by the law and the Code of Ethics as detailed by the American Psychological Association. There are some exceptions to this, such as in the case of suspected abuse or harm to self/others. Issues of confidentiality and any questions you have can be further discussed in initial conversations.
