My Practice
I work with individuals and couples from late adolescence through adulthood. My work with couples includes premarital, marital, and divorce counseling. My practice has included clients with a wide range of ethnic and cultural backgrounds, religious beliefs, and sexual orientations. I have experience with individuals with Asperger Syndrome and their partners.
My approach to psychotherapy is to provide a safe and supportive environment in which we can work together, to offer you my observations and thoughts, and to encourage you to be an active participant in clarifying concerns, setting goals, and evaluating progress. I draw from a wide range of theories and techniques to offer those best suited to each client. I often use cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, or psychodynamic therapy and may combine them with a number of other approaches.
I believe that therapy needs to include recognition of your strengths and abilities; to fit within the framework of individual values, beliefs, and cultural heritage; and to take into account the role of family members and other significant relationships. I work collaboratively, as needed, with physicians and other professionals from whom you might be receiving services.

Payment and Insurance
Payment for my services is made directly to me, either by check or cash. For most insurance plans, my sessions are reimbursable as an out-of-network provider. I will file insurance for you with Blue Cross/Blue Shield; otherwise I will help you with the process of filing with your company. I’m happy to meet for a short (25-30 minute) introductory session for a lower fee. We can discuss any fee or insurance questions in a first phone contact.
