If you are looking for a therapist for your child, please note that I encourage and invite parent participation in family sessions throughout treatment, in order to address systemic issues impacting your teen and family. It is also imperative that your child have an opportunity to have full trust in me knowing that therapy is a safe place and that our sessions are completely private. There are limits to confidentiality having to do with safety (and their safety will always be my first priority), but your child will be in charge and informed of any information disclosed between us regarding their life or their treatment.

With that said, I do find it important to get to know you as their parent(s) and I prioritize having the first session together without your child present. This gives you an opportunity to give me the “uncensored” scoop about what concerns or goals you have for your child, to ask me any questions, and tell me your family’s story so that I can better understand how I can help your child.

If you have a child who is unwilling to participate in therapy, or who is already seeing a therapist, I provide coaching sessions specifically for parents.

Some of the most common issues I work on with Teens are:

Self Esteem and Confidence Building

Eating Disorders and Body Image

Identity Exploration and Formation

Peer Relationships

Not “Fitting In”

Pricing:

Therapy sessions are 50 minutes long and typically occur on a weekly or every two weeks. The fee per session is $220. I have a limited number of reduced-fee spots available for those who need it. I accept cash, personal checks, or credit cards. You will be expected to pay for each session at the time it is held.

I am an out of network provider, and can provide you with a Superbill to submit to insurance at the end of each month. I encourage you to call your insurance provider and ask what the out of network mental health coverage is. That way, you will know if they will reimburse a percentage of your sessions.
