Relationship Issues

Meaning of Life

The Process of Change
Understanding ourselves is probably one of the biggest gifts we can give ourselves and those we love. When we learn to respond instead of react, to live consciously, we change the way we interact with the world around us. Unfortunately, we spend so much of our time on auto-pilot without even realizing what we’re doing or how we got here.
Studies show that a major contributing factor to a successful therapeutic outcome is the quality of the relationship that develops between the therapist and client.
As human beings, we spend our entire lives in relationships with other people, so it makes sense that a safe and trusting relationship that is built during individual therapy can be a source of change and healing. Through non-judgmental awareness and self-acceptance, people begin to unfold and access all parts of themselves, and this in turn fosters healthy relationships in every area of life — with ourselves, our partners, children, parents, siblings, friends and co-workers.
Long-term Individual Therapy is not a quick fix. It requires a desire and a commitment to gain a deeper understanding of yourself. As you learn to recognize old, unproductive behaviors and beliefs and let go of them, you open the door to creativity and freedom and discovering the real you. Changing years and years of old habits and healing from the past is not easy and it is possible.
Life is a journey and what really matters isn’t what we are doing, it’s how.
Fees
Therapy is an investment in you. When you are at your best, everything in your life works better.
My fee for a standard 50 minute individual session is $190. The cost of longer sessions are prorated accordingly. Payment is expected at each session and I accept cash, checks, credit card (MasterCard/Visa), PayPal and Venmo
Insurance
I am not contracted with any health insurance or managed care companies. However, when requested I provide clients with a monthly statement that you can submit to your insurance carrier. If you have “out-of-network” mental health coverage you may be able to receive partial reimbursement from your insurance company, but it is your responsibility to verify the terms of your policy.
I welcome any questions you have about fees or other office policies.
