I see clients in my well-appointed private office located in Medford, MA and online anywhere in Massachusetts. EMDR can also be offered virtually.

My goal is to help you feel better. I offer 55 minute therapy hours as well as longer 75 minute and 90 minute intensives as needed. I believe that weekly, targeted care is the most effective way for us to measure progress and outcomes.

Length of time spent in therapy varies by person. High quality therapy is a financial and time commitment. Many people find that with support they can resolve certain issues quickly, others find they need more time to work through complex nuanced needs in their life. The relational model offers a unique experience to clients and it is truly collaborative. Together we will create intentional goals and determine what will measure our progress to make sure your goals are being met.

Service rates for in-network plans are negotiated in my provider contract. For all other services, please see the price breakdown above.

Standard length (55 minute) sessions are billed using acceptable CPT billing codes that clients can often submit to their insurance provider, HSA or FSA for reimbursement. Insurance providers typically do not cover sessions longer than 60 minutes.

I work exclusively with the Open Path Collective to offer sliding scale services. To learn more about Open Path’s social justice mission and mental health access, click here.

Weekly therapy guarantees time just for you, a mutual commitment between therapist and client. I require 48 hours notice for all cancellations to avoid a fee and to offer that time to another person who can use it. For a no-show, no call appointment I charge in full.

All clients will receive detailed fee schedules, practice policies, and privacy practices prior to their initial appointments.

What makes someone a good therapist for you is largely dependent on how you feel when working with them. It all begins with an assessment and meeting. You will sit with me and we will talk about what brings you into the office, what experiences you have had with therapy in the past and what you are hoping to achieve. Sometimes it takes a few sessions to determine if a therapist is the right fit. We will have an open dialogue about it together - what is helpful and what is not. Together we can determine if it is a good match. It’s okay if I do not feel like a good match for you, and this is something I encourage everyone to discuss openly.

I am a trauma specialist, and this is not unusual. Therapy with me is structured as a give and take. Safety and comfort comes first and is always my priority. We will work at your pace, and you might even notice me pacing you when things feel too much too fast. When we run into difficult topics I will always let you know why I might gather certain information and you can always slow us down or stop the conversation too. Many people find that they do not have full details or memories about their experiences. Rather than thinking about therapy as a gathering of the facts, think of it as a space to be curious, process, and acknowledge experiences even without a narrative.
