Frequently Asked Questions

Logistics

Current fees for licensed therapy services:

  • Individual Session (50 Min): $150
  • EMDR Intensive: $1500 Virtual, $1870 In Person

I intentionally keep my fees below market rates because I want high-quality, individualized therapy to be more accessible to the people who need it.

Like most specialty providers and many therapists (close to 80%!), I operate as an out-of-network provider. This means I don’t bill insurance directly and clients are expected to pay for sessions at the time of their appointment. 

However, many of our clients qualify for partial to full reimbursement from their insurance provider depending on their specific plan or fund sessions with a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA).

Working outside insurance allows therapy to stay focused on your goals without being limited by a diagnosis or a set timeline for progress. We move at a pace that feels right for you, maintain full privacy over your mental health records, and create a flexible, personalized plan for growth.

Weekly sessions are offered Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, starting at 10am – 6pm eastern.

I typically schedule intensives and retreats on Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Please inquire for availability.

Working Together

Many clients start with weekly sessions for the first phase of treatment and then when they’re ready, shift to biweekly sessions, which often feels more sustainable. We’ll adjust the frequency together as needed to best support your goals.

The truth is that therapy is a long-term process — less like going to a yearly doctor’s appointment, and more like going to weekly physical training sessions. I get to know you over time, reflect back what I notice, and adjust as our work together deepens.

How long it takes depends on what brings you in and what you hope to achieve. Real, sustained change takes time, since it means processing emotions, making sense of your experiences, and strengthening new patterns in your brain and body.

In the first session or two, I’ll ask questions to understand your life and experiences while listening without judgment. Together, we’ll set goals for what you hope to accomplish in therapy.

It helps to come to sessions with an idea of what you’d like to focus on, especially areas where you’ve been feeling stuck. Some sessions may feel challenging, while others feel lighter, but either way, I’ll support you as you work toward the change and growth you’re seeking.

Yes. If you’re unsure about online therapy, I get it. While it may feel new, online therapy has been safely and effectively used for years, and research shows it is just as effective as in-person sessions for the concerns I support.

I offer therapy online to make high-quality support more accessible, flexible, and convenient. Many clients prefer virtual sessions because they can stay in their own space, avoid commuting, and more easily fit therapy into their schedule.

If online therapy doesn’t feel right for you, that’s completely okay. I encourage you to seek support in a way that feels safe and comfortable.

Approach

I believe our relationships shape the way we see ourselves, connect with others, and move through the world. My approach is to help you understand the patterns keeping you stuck, make sense of where they came from, and create new experiences that lead to lasting change.

I take our therapeutic relationship seriously because healing doesn’t just come from insight, it happens when you feel safe enough to explore, practice, and experience something different.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Florida and New York and I am certified in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I am working toward certification in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS).

I regularly pursue continuing education, consultation, and specialized training to provide evidence-based care and refine my set of skills to support you. You can learn more about my background and training on my About page.

Before scheduling a therapy session, I offer an optional 15 minute discovery call with potential new clients. This gives us the chance to get to know each other prior to scheduling an intake session.

We’ll talk about, why you’re seeking therapy, my approach, scheduling, and logistics, and any other questions you have.

This call is your chance to feel out whether I’m a good fit for you!

If we both decide we’re a good fit after our intro call, we’ll schedule our first therapy session. I’ll send you some forms to complete before the appointment, all electronically.

Prior to the session, I’ll send the Zoom link to your email. Working online is so convenient for clients and especially couples with busy schedules. Easy, flexible, and accessible.
