Frequently Asked Questions

What types of therapy do you offer?+
I offer individual therapy, couples therapy, and counseling for professionals, integrating evidence-based approaches such as psychodynamic psychotherapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Each treatment is tailored to your specific goals, whether you are working through relationship challenges, stress, or long-standing emotional patterns.
How do I know if therapy is right for me?+
Therapy can be helpful if you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or want a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions, and relationship patterns. Many people begin therapy with mixed feelings about change, which is completely normal. The process helps you gain insight into what is and is not working, so you can make more intentional decisions moving forward.
Is therapy confidential?+
Yes, therapy is confidential. Information is only shared with your written consent, except in specific legal situations such as risk of harm to yourself or others, or suspected abuse. If you use out-of-network insurance benefits, certain details like diagnosis and billing codes may be submitted for reimbursement purposes.
How often should I attend therapy sessions?+
Weekly therapy sessions are typically recommended. In my experience, meeting consistently allows the therapeutic process to build momentum and leads to more meaningful progress compared to less frequent sessions.
Do you offer virtual therapy sessions?+
Yes, both in-person and virtual therapy sessions are available. Virtual sessions provide flexibility while maintaining the same level of care and confidentiality, making it easier to stay consistent with your treatment.
