PsychOTHERAPY FOCUS

At my practice, I emphasize the transformative power of psychotherapy. Here's how we can begin:

  1. Reach Out: Submit your details through the contact section of the site. You can expect a response within 5 business days.

  2. Exploratory Call: We'll have a conversation to understand your needs. We'll set up an initial consultation if it seems like a good match.

  3. First Session: This is a comprehensive 90-minute evaluation to explore your concerns. I specialize in psychodynamic therapy, aiming to uncover and address deep-rooted issues and unconscious emotions. I also consider other approaches like cognitive behavioral or dialectical behavior therapy and can refer you to specialists in these areas if needed.

  4. Building a Relationship: Psychotherapy thrives on a solid therapist-patient connection. We will spend the first 3-4 sessions assessing our compatibility. If we're not the right fit, I'm committed to helping you find a therapist who is.

Medication managment

While I am qualified in medication management, it's a secondary aspect of my practice. Here's how it works:

  1. Post-Consultation Decision: After our initial meeting, we may discuss the possibility of incorporating psychiatric medications, but only when necessary and always with an emphasis on minimal usage.

  2. Careful and Collaborative Approach: I follow stringent professional guidelines, ensuring open discussions about your treatment. This may require more frequent visits to monitor progress carefully.

  3. Controlled Substance Policy: I am cautious with prescribing controlled substances, adhering to strict monitoring systems and agreements. If our views on medication management differ, I will assist you in finding a provider more aligned with your preferences.

PRACTICE Limitations

Please be aware that my practice is not equipped to manage severe psychiatric disorders or emergencies. Additionally, successful therapy depends on a strong match between the therapist and patient. If your needs fall outside my area of expertise, or if our therapeutic relationship is not beneficial for both of us, I am dedicated to assisting you in finding a more suitable provider.
