Nice to Meet You

I work with adults, adolescents and couples who want to feel more ease and fulfillment in life. In therapy, we address the innermost, often hidden parts of ourselves. We begin to gain more access to our emotional experience. This loosens the constraints of old patterns and allows us to shed whatever has kept us stuck in our ways. This work is sometimes painful but it is oriented, always, towards vitality. I join you in it, as a sensitive and direct listener. I welcome your messiness and darkness while being equally curious about your distinctiveness and creativity. The relationship we develop can be a space of self-observation and experimentation. The purpose is to find a greater sense of connection with ourselves, with others and, finally, with aliveness itself. I also work with couples. Our wellbeing depends on the health of our intimate relationships. Couples and families come to therapy hoping to reset a relationship that has become riven with conflict or deadened by disconnection. The therapy works by closely observing problematic dynamics in action. In sessions, we can slow these dynamics down and experiment with something new. Note: “dyadic” means any pair of people — friends, collaborators, I work with any type of relationship.

Appointment Confirmed!

Your registration is complete and your appointment is scheduled. Review the details below.

Missed and Late Cancel Office Policy: Our office requires two full business days’ notice (48 hours) to cancel or reschedule your appointment or your credit card will be charged a late cancellation fee. Saturdays, Sundays, and Legal Holidays are not counted as business days (i.e., if you have an appointment on Monday at 11:00 am, and you wish to change it without penalty, you would need to call our office on the preceding Thursday morning before 11:00 a.m. to avoid the late cancellation fee). The late cancellation fee is $150 for a session with a psychiatrist, or $100 for a session with a psychologist or master’s level therapist. If you are not present at the start time of your scheduled appointment, it may be marked as missed by your provider. Unfortunately, we cannot bill your insurance for late cancellations, missed sessions, and appointments with too little time. We apologize that there are no exceptions to the late cancellation policy.
