My session rate is $175 per 50-minute session. I am an out-of-network provider and do not participate directly with insurance plans.

That said, I believe therapy should be as accessible as possible, and I’m happy to help you explore your options. Many clients are still able to use their insurance benefits in meaningful ways. I can support you by:

• Helping you check and understand your out-of-network (OON) benefits

• Submitting documentation to request a Single Case Agreement (SCA) when appropriate

• Determining whether you can use HSA or FSA funds to cover sessions

• Providing superbills for potential reimbursement

I don’t work directly with insurance companies so I can offer care that’s centered on you, not on insurance requirements. This allows for greater privacy, flexibility, and depth in our work, without needing to assign or justify diagnoses or rush the therapeutic process to meet outside criteria.

My goal is to provide thoughtful, high-quality therapy while still helping clients explore out-of-network benefits, reimbursement options, and HSA/FSA funds whenever possible.

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Some people come to therapy for a specific concern, while many of my clients choose to work with me longer term. We often begin by focusing on what’s bringing you in right now. As that starts to feel more manageable, many clients stay working with me to navigate life’s ongoing challenges, relationships, and transitions with support. Over time, sessions may naturally shift from weekly to biweekly or monthly, depending on your needs. We’ll regularly check in about what feels helpful for you, and you’re always in control of the pace and length of therapy.

Yes, therapy is confidential, which means that anything you discuss with your therapist will be kept private and not shared with anyone else without your consent. There are some exceptions to this rule, such as if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others, or if the therapist is required by law to report certain information.

It's important to remember that therapy is a personal and collaborative process, and it's normal to feel uncomfortable or unhappy at times. If you're feeling uncomfortable or unhappy in therapy, it's important to talk to your therapist about your concerns and try to work through them together. If you feel that therapy is not a good fit for you, you can always discuss other treatment options with your therapist or seek out a different therapist who may be a better match for your needs.

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and slow things down.

We’ll talk about what’s bringing you to therapy and what you’re hoping for. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know exactly what to say — we’ll go at your pace.

I’ll ask thoughtful questions to better understand you, your experiences, and your relationships. You won’t be pushed to share anything before you’re ready.

The goal isn’t to fix everything right away, but to begin building trust and see if working together feels like a good fit. Many people leave feeling a bit lighter, clearer, or less alone — which is a meaningful place to start.

I am in person at my office in Cedar Knolls on Mondays and virtual on Thursdays and some Fridays.

You can get in touch by filling out the contact form on my Get in Touch page. I’ll respond personally within 24–48 hours with information about availability and next steps.

If it feels helpful, we can start with a free 10-minute screening call. This is a brief, no-pressure conversation to see if working together feels like a good fit and to answer any questions you may have. Finding the right therapist matters, and I encourage you to take your time in that process.
