Initial Complimentary Phone Consultation (15 minutes)

A strong therapist and client relationship is essential for effective therapy.  I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to determine if we are a good therapeutic match.

Initial Assessment (60 minutes)

During our initial meeting, I will ask about concerns that bring you to therapy, your history, various aspects of your life, and what you would like to accomplish in therapy.  This information will allow us to have a broader understanding of where you have been, where you are now, and how best to help you move to where you want to be. 

Individual Therapy (45-60 minutes)

I offer individual therapy services to children (ages 6-12), teens (13-17), and adults.  Therapy sessions may involve different activities such as: learning and practicing skills for managing feelings, re-processing traumatic and distressing memories, and learning to identify and work with unhelpful thoughts.

Family Therapy (50 minutes)

Family therapy often involves helping family members communicate more effectively.  A central goal is to be sure that all family members feel safe, valued, and heard.  Family therapy can also involve establishing clear roles and boundaries. 

Group Therapy (50-60 minutes)

I offer groups for tweens and teens focused on learning and practicing mindfulness, cognitive behavioral, and self-compassion-based skills for coping with stress.  Group therapy is a powerful way to let youth know they are not alone, and to learn from and support their peers. (Group therapy will resume in accordance with official public health guidelines.)
