“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction not a destination.”

― Carl R. Rogers

 

about my services…


To me, psychotherapy is both an art & a science. Research shows that the quality of the relationship is the most significant factor in successful treatment outcomes.

I emphasize working together to identify short-term & long-term treatment goals & establishing mutual trust & respect.

 
 

my approach…


I work mostly from a psychodynamic model, but will cater the treatment modalities used, ranging from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to mindfulness, based on your specific needs and requests.

I’m also a big believer in psychoeducation and will provide referrals as needed for any additional services that may be applicable to your treatment such as psychiatry.

I’m here to help create dialogue about issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, and work-related stress. Through this dialogue I want to help you improve your mind-body connection, develop coping skills that will strengthen your emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and reduce uncomfortable psychiatric symptoms.

  • Once we have connect via email or phone, the day of your first session you will receive a unique Zoom link via email. You can use this link ongoing for all future sessions.

    During our first video session I will explore your reasons for seeking therapy and begin to gather important personal and health history. Expect to discuss your family of origin and share a little about all life areas. This will provide me with a foundation for getting to you know you and how we can best work together to achieve your treatment goals.

  • I am using the popular telehealth platform Zoom. Prior to our first meeting, I can offer technical assistance if needed. The Zoom account is used specifically for healthcare providers and is HIPAA compliant. This means Zoom is responsible for employing the appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards to prevent any unauthorized access to, or use or disclosure of, PHI (protected health information).

  • Currently I use Headway for all billing. Once your account is set up and a billing payment method is added, you will be charged at the conclusion of your session for either your co-pay if using insurance, or the session fee.

  • INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS

    45-minute private sessions via a telehealth platform.

    Weekly and bi-weekly sessions are currently available.

TIPS FOR TELETHERAPY

  • Find a private & quiet space.

    Avoid public spaces, family and roommates and use headphones when possible! Pets are always welcomed, of course.

  • Turn off notifications.

    It’s easy to get distracted. Turn off notifications on your laptop or set your cell phone to ‘Do Not Disturb.’

  • Use Wifi.

    Connect to your WiFi and remain in range of the router to ensure the best quality video session.

  • Download Zoom.

    Download the Zoom application in advance of your session time. Check your email for the reoccurring link to your session.

  • Get Comfortable.

    Find that perfect spot in your home where you feel most at peace. Having a safe space where you can put on your favorite pair of sweats and get focused is important!

  • Stay charged.

    Have the device you plan to use for your session as charged as possible. This prevents disruptions and frustrations of having to locate and untangle those cords.
