I am a psychotherapist with more than a decade of clinical experience who excels at connecting with people and making them feel at ease. I'm known by my clients to be warm, engaged, humorous, direct, and compassionate. I approach therapy as an interactive process and enjoy working with individuals to develop a plan that works for them.
I believe it is a privilege to sit with people who allow me to bear witness to their lives, stressors, and pain. My clinical orientation focuses on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Interpersonal Therapy. I also specialize in suicide prevention, intervention and postvention, and working with survivors of suicide loss.

From the Sessions
Report
In the initial session, I take time to get to know you and to explore your history. I want to know what brought you into therapy and what you hope to accomplish during our time together. I focus on learning about you and gaining your trust. I also take time to lay out expectations, discuss confidentiality, and complete paperwork.
From Me
Report
The relationship between you and your therapist is vital to the success of therapy. You can expect that I keep your information private and confidential. I will act as a professional and respect your autonomy to make decisions at all times. While I may at times offer challenging statements, know that it will be done so respectfully.
Payment
Report
My fee for individual or family sessions is $125.00 per 45-50-minutes, and $150.00 for initial intake sessions. I accept some health insurances for payment of sessions and will make every effort to bill accordingly as a courtesy to you. Please be aware that each insurance plan that I am contracted with reimburses at a different rate, which I have agreed to accept.
