ABOUT THERAPY

WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH TO THERAPY?

My approach is Psychodynamic, and I also draw from various other schools of thought, including Humanistic, Existential, Somatic, and Mindfulness-based therapies.

WHAT IS ATTACHMENT THEORY?

Attachment Theory offers a way of understanding and providing support for the unique challenges that parents face in raising babies. It teaches that babies need safe and reliable caregiving to build a secure attachment. This is the foundation for healthy adult relationships and positive expectations of life and the world. Without this, a person’s ability to relax, be creative, play, and explore is limited. Attachment Theory helps parents understand and have compassion for their attachment histories, which can provide insight into one’s parenting.

WHAT IS DEPTH PSYCHOLOGY?

Depth Psychology is a way of seeing the big picture of a person’s life, not just the surface. What we think we know or consciously remember is only part of our story. We aren’t capable of keeping the contents of our lives in mind and accessible all the time. And really, who would want to? But often, some of what has been tucked away is the key to a more fulfilling life. Deep personal growth often comes from the process of making room for what has been stored out of sight.

HOW OFTEN WILL WE MEET?

Weekly sessions are ideal. As you make room for your thoughts and feelings each week, you might discover that rhythm and predictability are part of offering yourself nurturing, safety, and security.

HOW LONG DOES THERAPY LAST?

We can work together as long as you are benefiting from therapy. For the most part, therapy lasts anywhere between 6 months to 3 years. It can be shorter or longer, depending on the situation.

HOW MUCH DOES THERAPY COST?

Individual 50 minute session: $190

DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?

I am not contracted with any insurance companies. Depending on your insurance, you can use your benefits for full or partial reimbursement. For anyone wishing to use this option, I can create a “super-bill” or monthly itemized receipt for you to submit to your insurance company. Be sure to contact your insurance company and ask about out-of-network provider coverage before seeking reimbursement, as each company and policy is different. While some offer generous reimbursement, others may not reimburse at all.
