Services
I provide individual telehealth therapy to adults (18+) in New Jersey, Connecticut, and Massachusetts who are looking for support to help guide them through a difficult time, better manage their mood and emotions, and to help them live a life that is fulfilling to them.
To participate in telehealth sessions, you will need a private space where you can talk and a computer and/or smartphone that has internet access and a camera. Before our session, you will be sent a link to your email that you just need to click on and you will be connected to me. You will be asked to join a free, confidential patient portal where you will be able to contact me between sessions, schedule, and pay for sessions.
My style is based in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and a trauma informed background. My approach can be eclectic or structured, tailoring my approach to each individual’s needs. My training comes from research-oriented therapies with an emphasis on understanding patterns both behaviorally and cognitively, while increasing your ability to cope with difficult emotions and situations.
In addition to therapy, I am able to provide supervision to social workers looking to complete their supervision hours needed to receive their clinical license.
Areas I am trained in:
Depression
Anxiety/Panic
Self-harm/hopelessness/suicidal thoughts
DBT/CBT
Womens mental health/perinatal mood & anxiety
Trauma
Grief & Loss
How we get started
If you are interested in beginning therapy and feel like we may be a good fit, the first step would be to complete the form under the Contact tab and from there, I will reach out to schedule a 10-minute phone call.
During this phone call, I will be able to answer any questions you may have and to get an understanding of what you are looking for help with.
From there, we can schedule a first session. I will email you a link to fill out some initial paperwork. In our first meeting, which will be about an hour long, I will spend the time gathering information to get a full understanding of what is bringing you to therapy, how different aspects of your life are being affected, and what your goals are. At the end of the session, we will discuss together a plan going forward.
After the first session, if it has been determined that I may be a good fit to address your needs, you can expect to meet weekly when starting off as this is what I have found to be most helpful for individuals at the beginning stages of therapy. After a few sessions, we can discuss and adjust the frequency if/when needed based on progress that is made.

Insurance
At this time, I do not accept insurance. I am considered an Out-of-Network Provider. If your insurance plan covers out-of-network providers/treatment, after receiving payment at the end of our session, I will provide you with a receipt containing all needed information for you to seek reimbursement through your insurance.
Before we meet, I recommend reaching out to your insurance company and asking questions about your plan to help determine your benefits. Here are some questions that are helpful to ask:
Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?
Does my insurance plan cover telehealth?
Are out-of-network services covered? If yes, how much is covered?
Does my plan limit how many mental health sessions per calendar year are covered? If so, what is the limit?
Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?
If you do not have out-of-network benefits I am happy to work with you on a sliding scale to find a fee that is affordable for you.
Payment
I accept all major credit or debit cards as forms of payment. Payment is due at the end of each session.
Cancellation Policy
If you do not cancel or reschedule your appointment within 24 hours of the scheduled time, you will still be responsible for the full session fee.
