In your inquiry email, kindly include your insurance provider (I accept BCBS, Medicaid, Aetna, MVP or self-pay) and week or weekend days that work best for you between 11 AM and 7 PM. I work best with adults who are motivated and choosing therapy of their own volition. Contemplative college students and adult couples are welcome to inquire as well. I reply to all emails - so please note that replies to Psychology Today inquiries sometimes go to spam folders.
As a child of the universe, I believe that you are perfect at your most basic level and that you deserve all of the love that you want and need, no matter what. My intention is to provide a safe space where we can bring to the conscious what is unconscious; so that you can make choices aligned with your dream life!
Prior to private practice, I worked at UVM Medical Center and Northwestern Counseling and Support Services. I am a certified yoga instructor, former NCAA athlete and returned Peace Corps volunteer. “Act on your highest excitement without attachment to outcome.” For more insight on my approach, check out my podcast www.instagram.com/psychothespian?igs.
