Services Offered and Philosophy of Treatment

I conduct medication management, individual therapy, and group therapy for people over the age of 18. The first one-hour intake will be geared toward gathering your story as well as setting measurable goals for treatment.

I am proficient with the following conditions:

  • Bipolar disorder

  • Trauma-related illnesses

  • Psychotic illnesses

  • Substance use

  • Personality disorders

  • ADHD

  • OCD

I will offer a combination of medication, therapy, and/or behavioral changes to which you can accept or decline. I wholeheartedly collaborate with outside providers to streamline care.

Payments and Costs

I do not at this time accept insurances. I charge a pro-rated $500 per hour.

Medication management sessions run between 30 to 45 minutes. Therapy sessions run between 45 to 60 minutes. Group therapy will be at a lower per-session fee to be determined by the group therapy size.

Payments are expected on or before the day of service. I accept all major credit cards and personal checks.

Of note, most commercial insurances have generous out-of-network benefits which may cover a significant proportion of the rate I charge. I provide documentation as necessary to obtain those benefits.
