Who this is forIndividual therapy for adults aged 18 and over. I don’t offer couples or family therapy.

A focused commitmentThe time limit is intended to keep both client and therapist focused and actively involved. The initial interview helps assess fit; if longer-term therapy seems more appropriate, I may recommend a referral.

Short-term, active workThis is short-term, active treatment, not open-ended: sessions are capped at 26, and the time limit is there to keep the work focused.

The course of treatment

The proposed course is a maximum of 26 sessions: an initial session of up to two hours, followed by one-hour sessions, usually spanning about six months. Treatment may end sooner.

The initial interview helps assess suitability. If longer-term treatment is needed, I may recommend a referral. I work with adults aged 18 and over, and I don’t offer couples or family therapy.

Fees

The fee is $300 per hour. The initial session lasts up to two hours; if it finishes earlier, the fee is reduced. I don’t bill insurance directly; a superbill is available on request.

Session recordings

Treatment sessions are videotaped for clinical review. Another clinician cannot view a recording without your consent. Recording storage and retention details should be discussed with me before treatment.
