Talk as openly as you can about whatever is on your mind. This is easier said than done! No topic is off-limits. This can include your past, your present, sex, and even dreams.

It can be difficult to see how talking and processing our experiences can help. In therapy as you talk, you come to know yourself better. Collaboratively we begin to recognize patterns, which leads to new insight towards our actions and behaviors.

If advice were enough, you probably wouldn’t be coming to therapy. Instead of advice, I strive to help you see yourself and your situation with more clarity so you can make more informed choices about your life. Ultimately in psychotherapy, advice is rarely helpful.

While this may seem antiquated, there is immense benefit to lying down on the couch. Most patients lie on the couch as a way to talk more freely without having to worry about the therapist looking at them. Many patients who are neurodivergent prefer this approach because it frees the patient from the work of typical social conventions like eye-contact.

For a 45 to 50 minute session my fee is currently $100. I offer sliding scale when available. Please do not hesitate to ask about sliding scale options.

At this time I do not take insurance. I can provide a super bill that you can submit to your insurance providers upon request.
