It takes courage to seek help.  It is also a challenge to find a therapist who is a good match for your needs.  The best way to find out whether I am that therapist is by coming in for a consultation.  There is no obligation to continue and I will be happy to provide you with referrals to experienced colleagues.

Individual Psychotherapy

I offer weekly to twice weekly individual psychotherapy.  When appropriate, I may also provide longer or double sessions.  My approach to psychotherapy combines a focus on helping you gain insight into the sources of your difficulties, becoming more emotionally aware, and making changes in your life.  My new clients often comment that they want a therapist who is not silent.  While I listen carefully and attentively, I will be quite active in our sessions.

 

Couples Counseling

I practice Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy: an approach to couples and marriage therapy based on attachment theory and supported by research.  Seventy to seventy-five percent of couples who complete this type of treatment recover from distress and almost 90% show significant improvement in their relationship.

 

Fees and Schedule

My fees depend on the length of the session and services provided.  I offer sliding scale fees for people with financial constraints and you should feel free to ask about this.  If you are interested in obtaining reimbursement through your insurance carrier, I will provide you with the appropriate receipt on a monthly basis.
