I enjoy working with adults of all ages to navigate life’s challenges, restore balance, and achieve greater fulfillment. Sessions are provided virtually via secure telehealth.
Approach & Specialized Training
I believe that every individual has the capacity to create positive change in their lives. I view therapy as a collaborative process that offers a unique opportunity to gain insight into your internal and external worlds, relationships, and address your aspirations and goals. I approach the client-therapist relationship with warmth, compassion, and a toolkit of practical skills along with evidence-based techniques. In line with your goals and needs, therapy can be short term or long term.
I use an integrative and relational approach to therapy, combining a number of the following modalities as appropriate and desired:
*EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapeutic approach that has been shown to be highly effective in treating trauma-related symptoms. EMDR is also an innovative intervention for performance enhancement as it can decrease the stress, fear, and anxiety related to performance, whether that be in the workplace, in sports, or in the classroom.
Fees & Payment
My fee for individual therapy is $200 per session. I offer a limited number of sessions at a reduced rate for those in need. Please contact me for an estimate of costs. Payment is due in full at the time of your appointment. I accept electronic payment, credit card, cash, or check.
