We are currently seeing patients in person at The Sarah Ridge House at 230 West Center Street.
What will the first session be like?
The primary goal of the first session is to get to know each other and begin determining if we are a good fit. During this time, we can talk about you and your reason for seeking treatment. I will invite you to begin sharing your story in a capacity that feels appropriate and determining your goals. I can answer your questions and tell you more about what influences my work.
What methods of payment do you accept?
I accept cash or check payments for sessions fees, copays or deductible payments. I am in-network with the following insurance plans:
Blue Cross Blue Shield
Aetna
Cigna
Qual Choice

How long does therapy last?
The duration and frequency of psychotherapy varies depending on each patient and their individual needs. My role is to help facilitate your process in answering this question for yourself. I will encourage you to consider a number of factors including current motivation for engagement, the financial impact of treatment, and the attainment of therapeutic goals. If and when you decide it is time to end psychotherapy, I will encourage you to spend time reflecting on and reviewing your experience, while respecting the amount of time you wish to spend in the ending phase of therapy.
