FAQs

What insurances do you accept?

I am paneled with various insurance providers but am only able to take on new insurance patients at given times due to a variety of constraints. Plese feel free to reach out and inquire about more information. I am also able to make referrals to other psychoanalysts that take insurance. 

How often are sessions?

We will likely begin by meeting once a week. However, good therapy depends on meeting consistently and often. Therefore, it would be beneficial to meet more often. We will work together to determine if this makes sense for you - both emotionally and economically.

How much are sessions?

My out-of-pocket fee is $180 per weekly session. If you elect to meet more often, we can negotiate a lower per-session fee. 

I am able to reduce this fee for people with demonstrated need on a case-by-case basis. 

Are you currently holding sessions in person?

Yes, I am currently meeting in person in a socially distanced office setting. I encourage meeting in person but am able to accommodate virtual sessions on a case-by-case basis.

Is your office LGBTQIA+ friendly?

Yes. The ethics of psychoanalysis are clear: One in analysis should work towards clarifying their own desire without interference. It is the responsibility of the analyst to encourage each on this path. My role would never be to persuade anyone to desire differently given their sexual orientation, gender identity, etc. 

Do you prescribe medication?

No, as a clinical psychologist I am licensed for talk therapy. For medication, you should consult a psychiatrist or primary care physician.
