Individual Therapy

IN NEW JERSEY AND ONLINE

Above all else, therapy is a journey of discovering our authentic selves with a compassionate witness.

What healing looks like

  • Sense of Self

    I don’t just go along with what other people want any more.

    I can make decisions much quicker now that I trust myself.

    I don’t feel so numb and checked out.

    I can feel feelings without getting overwhelmed.

  • Healthy Relationships

    I’m able to identify who I can trust and count on.

    I don’t have to just rely on myself anymore.

    I’ve learned to set boundaries and also to let safe people in.

    I don’t overreact with my partner anymore.

  • Safety

    I understand what my brain is doing when I start to panic and I know what to do about it.

    I can determine now what is safe and unsafe.

    When I get triggered, I can get out of it so much quicker now.

    I don’t feel on-edge anymore.

You might be struggling with:

Anxiety • Relationships • Managing life • Feeling overwhelmed • Parenting stress

THERAPY IS:

  • PRACTICAL

    Sometimes you just need a space to talk through the day to day challenges, be it parenting, work, or the pressures of having to get everything done.  At these times we zoom in on helpful tools that work for your brain to manage life.  This can help bring clarity and confidence to the days of overwhelm and paralysis, all in a space created to help you catch your breath.

  • TRANSFORMATIONAL

    Other times we zoom out to look at the bigger picture and address the underlying reasons for the challenges we face. Here we explore how your symptoms may be related to your past, help you better understand your brain and body’s reaction to traumatic experiences and ways to cope and heal.

My style is relational and tailored to your needs. I use a trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming lens every time we meet.  Click to learn more about my approach.

What to Expect

  • Initial free 15 minute consultation.

  • Fill out paperwork to help me get to know you better and understand practice policies.

  • Intake session.

    • I typically allocate 90 minutes for the intake session for individual therapy.  Here we will go more in depth about your background and why you’re seeking therapy.  This session is more for a general overview of your symptoms and experiences.  Often people don’t feel ready or that it’s too overwhelming to go into traumatic experiences in the beginning of therapy.  I am sensitive to that and don’t push you to share things you’re not ready to share. 

  • Determine goals and best treatment options.  

  • Schedule weekly 50 minute sessions.

  • Initial intake (90 minutes): $275

    Individual sessions (55 minutes): $190

  • I am not in-network with any insurance companies.  If you have out of network benefits, I can provide you with the receipt needed to submit to your insurance company for partial reimbursement.

  • Sessions are held in person in my office in Highland Park, NJ or online as long as you are in NJ at the time of our session.

  • I like to start off by meeting weekly then we can discuss if less frequent meetings would be beneficial.
