Psychotherapy is a collaborative process between you and a licensed therapist where you explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in a safe, nonjudgmental space. It helps you gain clarity, manage mental health challenges, improve relationships, and build coping skills for navigating life’s difficulties.

I specialize in a variety of therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. I tailor my approach based on your specific needs, personality, and goals.

If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem, or feeling stuck in your personal or professional life, therapy can help you gain insight, reduce distress, and improve overall well-being. It’s an opportunity to better understand yourself and make lasting positive changes.

In your first session, we’ll discuss your goals, concerns, and the reasons you sought therapy. This is also an opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the process, confidentiality, or my approach to therapy. The first session is about building a rapport and establishing trust.

Therapy length varies depending on your goals and the challenges you’re facing. Some clients see improvement in a few sessions, while others may benefit from longer-term therapy. We’ll regularly assess your progress to determine the best approach and timeframe.

Yes! I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, adult ADHD, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, and personal growth. My approach is tailored to each individual, and I have experience working with a diverse population– high-achieving adults, young adults, students, individuals navigating complex life transitions, and individual from different walks of life.

If you’ve experienced chronic disorganization, difficulty staying focused, forgetfulness, or procrastination, it might be helpful to explore whether ADHD is a factor. During our sessions, we can discuss your symptoms and, if necessary, conduct assessments to better understand how ADHD may be impacting your life.

The frequency of therapy depends on your personal goals and treatment plan. Typically, clients attend therapy once a week or biweekly, but this can vary based on your needs, schedule, and progress. We will discuss the best frequency for you during our first few sessions.

My fee is $225 for a 45-minute session. Sometimes it will be clinically (e.g. during a crisis) necessary to have longer therapy sessions at 90 mins in length. These sessions will be prorated and the fees will be discussed during initial appointments.

I currently accept the following insurance through Headway: 

Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield Virginia, Carelon Behavioral Health, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, and CareFirst Blue Cross Blue Shield.

Yes, I offer virtual therapy through a secure platform for clients who prefer the convenience of online sessions or are unable to attend in person. Online therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions, and many clients find it more flexible and convenient.

Absolutely. Confidentiality is a fundamental part of therapy. What you discuss with me remains private, with a few exceptions (such as if you’re at risk of harm to yourself or others). You will be fully informed about the confidentiality policies before we begin.

You can get started by reaching out via the contact page, phone, or email to schedule an initial consultation. During our first meeting, we will discuss your goals, challenges, and how therapy can help. From there, we will decide on the next steps.

Yes, therapy is highly effective for treating a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and other emotional or mental health challenges. We will work together to identify the underlying causes of your difficulties and create a personalized treatment plan that fits your needs.

If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, please let me know at least 24 hours in advance. This allows me to offer your time slot to someone else. Cancellations made less than 24 hours in advance may incur a fee.

You should begin to notice shifts in your emotional state, perspective, and ability to cope with challenges. Progress may look different for everyone, but together, we’ll regularly check in on your goals and evaluate how things are going. If something doesn’t feel right, we can adjust our approach.

Under the No Surprises Act (Section 2799B-6), health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

• Your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least one business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

• You can dispute the bill if you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate. 

• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services or call 800-985-3059.
