Services

Individual psychotherapy and family consultations

Psychotherapy for Adults

Are you looking for a therapist who is skilled, solid, and trustworthy? Would you like therapy to be practical, interactive, and solution-focused? I can help you move towards your goals in an environment that is safe and supportive, and characterized by warmth and humor.

I work with adults to address a range of concerns, including anxiety, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, attention deficit (ADD/ADHD), grief and loss, medical and psychiatric illnesses, and difficulties with relationships, school, family, work, and the stress of caregiving.

Family Consultations

Are you experiencing stress because of a family member or loved one's psychiatric illness? Do their issues or symptoms pose challenges to you and other family members as you seek to get your loved one the help they need? I provide consultation services to families who are coping with the psychiatric illness of a family member.

RATES: I offer an initial telephone consultation free of charge. We can then either schedule an initial appointment, or I can provide information about alternative resources.

Individual therapy sessions (45 minutes) are $200. Our first appointment will be for an initial evaluation, typically a 90-minute session, for a fee of $300. If, after we meet, we decide that I am not the best person to help you, I can refer you to alternative providers. Family consultations are $200 per hour, with a minimum of one hour.

INSURANCE: My practice is strictly self-pay. I am not in network for any insurance plan, whether private insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, or TriCare. However, my psychotherapy services are reimbursable by most private insurance plans that have an out-of-network benefit. I will provide billing documentation for you to submit for reimbursement. Family consultation services are not covered by any insurance plan.
