F.A.Q.

How do I know if you are the right therapist for me?

I may not be. Choosing the right therapist is the most important decision you will make in this process. I encourage my patients to find someone they feel the most comfortable with, so that they can achieve the best results. Some factors that may or may not affect your decision in choosing a therapist may include: gender, race, religious beliefs and sexual orientation. If you are concerned about any of these or any other specific issue, I encourage you to ask about them during your consultation. 

How much does it cost and how many sessions will I need?

When exploring personal emotions and thoughts, it is not uncommon for deeper conflicts to become uncovered.  The length of your process depends on what you bring into the room and how far you want to explore it.  Each session is scheduled at the same time every week and lasts for 50 minutes.   The cost for each session is$150.   A 50 minute consultation is offered to new clients for $75.  A sliding scale is available based on individual needs.

 My relationship is in trouble, should I bring my partner with me?

Yes! Couples therapy is for people who are married, people seeking divorce, as well as for individuals dating.  People who have felt that their relationship is "stuck" or feel misunderstood by their partner can learn new ways to connect and communicate with the person they care about in therapy.  If there is a need for individual sessions, that may also be recommended in conjunction with your regularly scheduled appointments. Couples counseling can help you rebuild your relationship or support you in your decision to end your commitment and aid in navigating through feelings of resentment, anger and sadness.
