My Practice Provides Individualized Counseling and Therapy
My work as a therapist is characterized by individualized approach to each person or couple. Having had training in psychoanalytic, cognitive, spiritually informed therapies as well as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), After assessing each case I design an individualized counseling plan. I have been told that I am fairly active during counseling sessions, as an honest and straight forward therapist I provide feedback without being harsh or unempathic, rather I focus on being supportive and optimistic, while always based in reality.
Counseling and Therapy Sessions
Typically, appointments are 45 minutes. I work with clients all over the world and while mostly work in person in my office, I provide therapy on the phone. At this time, I do not accept insurance; however as courtesy and service to my clients I can submit claims to their insurance company so they get reimbursed in a timely fashion.
