Rely on me to help you leave each session feeling accepted and understood. Whatever your hope, the immediate—and often central—aim of therapy is that you feel seen, heard, and appreciated. Perhaps you seek relief from a specific symptom, help addressing a particular diagnosis, or support enduring a difficult time. Maybe you are struggling with low self-esteem, questions of purpose or identity, or with a vague sense of emptiness or disquiet. Or, you may seek couples therapy to reduce the frequency and intensity of fights, resolve thorny issues, or rebuild after a breach of trust.
Feeling understood moves you toward self-understanding and healing. For couples, this focus strengthens connection by helping each partner feel valued and heard. Together, we will chart a course unbound by the strictures of manualized therapy. It is your unique story that has taken you to this place; it is a unique path that can move you forward.
Even if you were hoping to use insurance to help pay for therapy, my sliding scale can make paying out-of-pocket [private pay] just as affordable. What’s more, private pay enhances privacy and expands treatment options. Learn more on my website's "Advantages of Private Pay" page. Or, request a free 10-minute phone consultation.

Paying out-of-pocket enhances privacy and individualization. Even without a rate adjustment, it can be as affordable as using insurance.

I help individuals and couples change behaviors, beliefs, and feelings - even those that confound conscious thought. In an atmosphere of non-judgement and acceptance, you tell your story (about anything from the day you had to an indelible childhood event). As we talk, unhelpful patterns reveal themselves. New, healthier patterns develop.
