Frequently Asked Questions

I firmly believe that everyone can benefit from engaging in psychotherapy. Even if you have trusted individuals in your life with whom you can be vulnerable, there is something uniquely valuable about confiding in a trained professional who offers a non-judgmental space and what psychologists call "unconditional positive regard." ​

Confidentiality is a cornerstone of therapy, and, in general, all information shared during sessions is kept private. However, there are a few exceptions, such as when there is a disclosure indicating that you or someone else may be at risk of harm. I describe the limits of confidentiality in more detail in my paperwork and we can discuss any question you have during your first session.

I describe myself as an integrative psychologist, meaning I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs. I take a direct approach in offering evidence-based recommendations designed to address your specific challenges, whether they involve anxiety-related or OCD symptoms or general life dissatisfaction.

All sessions are 50-minutes long. ​

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I do not prescribe medications. While a combination of medication and therapy can be beneficial for some individuals, this may not be necessary for everyone. It is essential to consult with a licensed physician, ideally a psychiatrist, to assess whether medication is appropriate for your needs. I am fully committed to collaborating with your physician, as I believe an interdisciplinary approach often provides the most comprehensive and effective care

As a specialist in the treatment of anxiety and OCD, I operate as an out-of-network provider. I am happy to provide you with the necessary documentation to submit to your insurance company, enabling you to explore potential out-of-network reimbursement options.​

All sessions are currently conducted via teletherapy on a HIPAA-compliant SimplePractice platform.​
