Getting Started |
|
|
 Making the decision to enter a psychotherapeutic relationship can seem difficult, as it raises issues of trust, hope for change, and fear of change. However, the first step is easy. You can contact me by phone or email, and I would be happy to take the time to answer your questions about how I might help. If you feel comfortable with the initial discussion, we can schedule an appointment. During the first appointment, I will take considerable time understanding your concerns, desires and goals. I will also provide you with my assessment of the best way for you to progress toward your goals.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you located?
My comfortable, confidential and convenient office is located just off I-95 (Exit 16, East Avenue): 108 East Avenue, 2nd Floor.
Are services confidential?
Services are confidential, to the fullest extent of the law.
Do you accept insurance?
I am purposefully not part of any managed care panels, because of the limitations insurance companies place on providers and consumers. I can fill out paperwork for you to submit to your insurance carrier, if you have out-of-network coverage (for certain insurance, I will submit the paperwork for your reimbursement).
What are your office hours?
I have early morning, daytime, and evening appointments during the week.
How much does it cost and what form of payment do you accept?
I charge $180 per 50-minute session. I accept cash, checks or credit cards.
How often will we meet and over what time frame?
My goal is to help you achieve lasting, positive change over the shortest time frame possible. During our first session, we will assess the initial frequency of visits, and an approximate time frame. Typically, we would meet once per week, but this may vary depending on your needs. For people who are motivated or in crisis, meeting twice a week for a shorter period may make sense. Sometimes, clients also need to take some time off from therapy to integrate what they have learned, and then restart when they are ready.
