Working Together
I provide individual psychotherapy for adolescents, young adults, and adults in New Haven, CT, as well as Telehealth throughout Connecticut.
I work with people experiencing anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem and identity concerns, life transitions, and patterns that leave them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves and others.
Working with Adolescents
Adolescence can be a complicated period of increasing independence, changing relationships, and figuring out who you are. Emotional difficulties during this time don’t always look like obvious distress—they may show up as anxiety, withdrawal, irritability, difficulties with friends and family, changes in self-esteem, or feeling overwhelmed or not yourself.
My work with teens focuses on creating a relationship where they can feel understood while also developing a greater ability to understand themselves, their emotions, and their relationships.
Parents are an important part of adolescent treatment. I work collaboratively with parents while also protecting the privacy and trust teens need to develop their own therapeutic process.
My Approach
My work is grounded primarily in psychodynamic, attachment, and mentalization-based approaches.
Rather than focusing only on reducing symptoms, therapy involves becoming curious about the patterns underneath the symptoms. Together, we can explore how you understand yourself and other people, what happens in your relationships, how you respond to difficult emotions, and how earlier experiences continue to shape the present. We pay attention to what is happening in your life now while developing a deeper understanding of what contributes to it.
Sessions & Fees
I offer in-person sessions at my New Haven office and Telehealth sessions for clients located in Connecticut. We will discuss session length and frequency together. Typically we will meet 1-2 times per week.
My standard fee is $175 per session.
I participate with a limited number of insurance panels. For clients using out of network benefits, I can provide documentation for potential reimbursement. Please contact me to discuss current insurance participation and fees.
