FAQ

• Where do we meet? ❯

  Currently, I am offering sessions exclusively through telehealth on a HIPAA-compliant video platform. While I may consider offering in-person appointments in the near future, at this time, all sessions are conducted remotely. My office (when open) is conveniently located less than a ten-minute walk from the Downtown Crossing and Government Center train stations in Boston, Massachusetts.

• What are your rates? ❯

  My rate for individual therapy sessions is $200. Payments can be made with a Credit Card: American Express, Discover, Health Savings Account, Mastercard, Visa

• Do you accept insurance? ❯

  I am in network with Blue Cross and Blue Shield, United Health Care, and Optum. I have also worked with many clients using Out of Network benefits. In these cases, I provide what is called a "Superbill" that can be submitted to your insurance for reimbursement.

• What is psychodynamic therapy? ❯

  Psychodynamic therapy is a type of talk therapy that focuses on exploring how past experiences, especially those from childhood, shape your current thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It's like looking beneath the surface to understand the root causes of your emotions and actions. Through open dialogue and interactive engagement, you can gain insight into unconscious patterns and work towards resolving inner conflicts to improve your overall well- being.

• Is psychodynamically-oriented therapy right for me? ❯

  Psychodynamic therapy might be right for you if you're interested in understanding how your past experiences influence your present thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It's beneficial if you're open to exploring deep-seated emotions and patterns, even if they're unconscious. This approach can be helpful if you're seeking long-term insights and are committed to self- exploration and personal growth. If you value a therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, and collaboration, psychodynamic therapy could be a good fit for you.
