Psychodynamic therapy helps you uncover unconscious patterns — like core beliefs, defense mechanisms, and repressed emotions — that influence how you think, feel, and relate. Using psychodynamic techniques, I support you in connecting past experiences to your present life, helping you develop healthier coping strategies and build more positive relationships with yourself and others.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is based on the idea that our minds are made up of many “parts,” each with its own role and intention. Some parts protect us but can also create conflict or confusion. I use IFS to help you connect with your inner system, understand and integrate your parts, and cultivate your core Self — a state of confidence, calm, compassion, courage, creativity, clarity, curiosity, and connectedness.

Attachment theory explores how early bonds with caregivers shape the way we relate to others. Many of us carry some attachment insecurity, which can show up as anxious or avoidant patterns in relationships. I support you in healing these attachment wounds, helping you embrace vulnerability, foster intimacy, and form deeper, healthier connections with yourself and others.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps you accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful, values-based action toward the life you want. ACT is about helping you live a meaningful and fulfilling life, even when difficult thoughts and emotions arise. Rather than trying to eliminate discomfort, ACT teaches you to notice and accept your inner experiences. Together, we focus on building mindfulness skills, clarifying what matters most to you, and taking committed actions that align with your goals.

A first session is an opportunity for me to get a feel for who you are, what some of your concerns might be, and to get an idea of what life has been like for you recently. It’s also an opportunity for you to get to know me and my working style. There will be plenty of time for you to ask me questions!

Absolutely not! I believe anyone can benefit from therapy, and I often work with people who want to “go deeper.” Deeper into understanding who they are, deeper into understanding the world around them, and deeper into understanding why they are the way they are. Sometimes this feels more like something is “missing” than something is “wrong.”

I offer the flexibility of conducting sessions both in-person and virtually. You have the choice of traditional face-to-face meetings in my welcoming office in the Flatiron District, which provides direct interaction.

Alternatively, virtual sessions are available to accommodate geographical constraints, scheduling preferences, and other considerations. Through secure online platforms, we can ensure a seamless and effective therapeutic experience.

Sessions are 50-55 minutes in length and cost $175 per session. I accept all major credit cards and flexible spending accounts.

I accept clients who are in-network with my insurance providers, those who are out-of-network, and those without insurance.

Over 80% of clients who are covered by in-network insurance have an average copay of $25 per session. You can get a copay estimate here.

Coverage depends on your individual plan and benefits, but my in-house billing team will help you verify your benefits to understand your coverage.

If you have an insurance provider that’s not listed, I'm happy to work with you to optimize insurance reimbursement if you have out-of-network benefits.

If you're covered by an insurance provider I'm not in-network with, you still may be able to receive coverage for therapy. Many PPO plans provide out-of-network benefits for mental health services.

You may be eligible for reimbursement for some (or all!) of the cost of your sessions. I can provide a monthly superbill (i.e. itemized receipt) for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

If you’re unsure about your out-of-network coverage, my billing team can help you identify your benefits.

To find out if you have out-of-network benefits for mental health, check your coverage by reviewing your EOB or asking your provider the following questions:

• “Does my plan include out-of-network benefits for mental health care? Specifically, for outpatient psychotherapy?”

• “Is approval required from my primary care doctor?”

• “What is my co-insurance?"

• “Do I have a deductible for out-of-network mental health services? If yes, what is the remaining amount I will have to pay before my health plan starts to reimburse me for fees that I pay out-of-pocket?”

• “How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?”

• “What is the maximum amount my plan will reimburse for mental health service code 90834 (individual therapy sessions) with a psychotherapist?”

You can also use this out-of-network reimbursement calculator to approximate your benefits. Once we decide to work together, my billing team will verify your benefits.

*In instances where out-of-network benefits are covered, you will be responsible for full payment at the time of service. Your insurance company will reimburse your expenses afterward, most often in the form of a check.
