BCBS or self pay only. Morning appointments open only. "We can control our thoughts and emotions or they can control us. There is a world of difference." Therapy is educational and direct with focus on cognitive restructuring and skills building. Clients usually report ease of symptoms in the first few weeks. I'm a graduate of Assumption. I've completed the Aaron Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy known to be the most effective form of treatment today. Longer sessions are also available. Some people respond better to a 2 or 3 hour session.
Specialties are focusing on trauma, all forms of depression, anxieties especially social phobia, worry and rumination, low self esteem, mood disorders, in both teens and adults for thirteen years. Fifteen years experience on family, trauma work and grief work after unexpected death or suicide. Fifteen years on adolescent issues.
Client's must verify their insurance and are responsible to pay for anything insurance does not cover. Copays are paid before start of session. All clients must have a notebook for both in person or virtual sessions. CBT is a science based therapy where the client and therapist discuss and enact the best treatment plan for that client's needs.
