We bring meaning to our lives through the questions we ask and stories we tell. While language may feel intangible, therapeutic conversations help us to find wisdom in our experiences. Recontextualizing the stories we tell ourselves can bring us greater clarity, ease, and self-compassion.
My therapeutic approach is empathetic, creative, and holistic. I am psychodynamically oriented, meaning that I will invite you to guide the content of our conversations. Through these open-ended conversations we will identify and explore recurring themes and patterns that emerge and look to the past to gain insight into the present. I draw from a variety of other modalities including narrative therapy and CBT. I believe that by mindfully attuning to our experience in the present, we gain knowledge essential for healing.
I welcome individuals of all backgrounds, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, and religious or political affiliations. I have particular experience working with people who identify as being neurodivergent or having learning differences. I also enjoy working with artists and creative people. No matter how your unique healing journey unfolds, I strive to help you feel safe and supported as you embrace new opportunities for growth.

I offer sessions in Park Slope as well as virtual sessions over Zoom. Sessions are 45-minutes in length and typically meet once a week. My services are limited to adults who live in New York state. I am a member of the Nelson Lacy Group practice.

My standard rate is $130 per session. Session fees are charged to a credit/debit card at the end of every session. I also operate a sliding-scale fee for individuals who cannot afford this rate. My goal is to make therapy accessible by taking into consideration your income and expenses. Clients who can afford my full rate make it possible for me to reduce my rate and make therapy accessible for others.

I am currently an out-of-network provider, meaning that I do not accept any insurance plans. I am happy to provide you with a superbill at the end of the month so that you can be reimbursed by insurance if you have out-of-network benefits. This means that you will pay the session fee up-front and then request reimbursement from your insurance provider.
To determine if therapy will be covered by your insurance you can ask your carrier the following questions:
Do I have out of network mental health insurance benefits?
What is my out of network deductible and has it been met yet by other medical expenses?
What is the coverage amount per therapy session?

I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. If you cancel or request a reschedule before 24-hours, you will not be charged. Last-minute cancellations are charged the full session fee. If you need to reschedule, I will do my best to provide you with other times within the week. Sessions may be rescheduled once (meaning a rescheduled session can not be rescheduled a second time).
