ABOUT THERAPY
Psychotherapy is a collaborative process that fosters growth and personal development. People often seek therapy to get relief from feelings of sadness, anxiety, depression, worry and/or a feeling of being stuck. Together, we can develop skills to help you deal more effectively with these overwhelming feelings. We can identify your strengths, your passions, and help you get direction in your life. Therapy can help you learn new ways to communicate and connect with others.
Individual therapy is geared toward achieving more satisfaction and meaning from one's life and one's choices. Psychotherapy allows individuals to better understand their emotional and interpersonal life, improving their quality of life. I provide support and practical feedback to help clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns. With sensitivity and compassion, I help clients find solutions to a wide range of life challenges and psychological issues. Therapy is a unique opportunity to make sense of your experiences in the world and connect with another human being in a meaningful way.
APPROACH
My approach is psychodynamic, which focuses on each client's unprocessed, unconscious thoughts and emotions in order to provide insight, self-knowledge and symptom relief. While I generally practice within a psychodynamic framework, I strongly believe in treating the individual and appreciate the uniqueness of each client. Therefore, I employ a variety of techniques and tailor my treatment in accordance with your needs. My style is integrative, interactive and collaborative.
I treat clients dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship problems, career dilemmas, distressing life events, loss, and a desire for growth/self-exploration. I work primarily with individual adults and couples.
TREATMENT FEES
Please contact me by email or telephone for fee information. I do accommodate some negotiated rates based on income and ability to pay. I accept cash, checks and credit cards. If you wish to pay by credit card, there will be a 2.75% convenience fee added to each transaction. If I am unable to accommodate your schedule or financial situation, I will try my best to assist you in finding appropriate referrals.
INSURANCE
I am an in-network provider with the Screen Actors Guild health insurance. I accept PPO insurance with all insurance companies, which cover out-of-network providers. Please contact Stacey Flynn at verifymybenefits@gmail.com, she will verify your benefits prior to our first session and make it easy and convenient for you to use your PPO insurance to help cover the cost of therapy sessions. While you are responsible for full payment of fees, we will do our best to provide you with whatever assistance we can in helping you receive the benefits to which you are entitled.
