Consultations

I offer a free 15-minute video consultation to help us determine if we’re the right fit. This brief session is an opportunity to discuss your needs and goals and explore whether my expertise aligns with what you’re looking for.

It’s also a chance for you to get a feel for my style and approach to therapy. Finding the right therapist is an important step, and I want us both to feel confident and comfortable moving forward together.

Couples Therapy

💰 Rate: $375 per session

Couples therapy requires balancing two perspectives, navigating emotional complexities, and fostering meaningful change. My approach is structured, pragmatic, and solution-focused, prioritizing progress over surface-level conflict resolution.

What to Expect

✔ A structured approach that goes beyond just mediating arguments
✔ Practical strategies and communication tools tailored to your relationship
✔ The option to transition between couples and individual sessions when needed
✔ A focus on long-term progress rather than just addressing immediate concerns

Why My Rate is Higher

I take on a limited number of couples to ensure that the work is impactful. My rate reflects:
🔹 The higher emotional and clinical demand of couples therapy
🔹 A structured and direct approach that prioritizes progress over venting
🔹 A track record of long-term success, with many couples integrating individual work for deeper growth
🔹 The option for quarterly or periodic couples check-ins to maintain progress

I work best with couples who are motivated to do the work and committed to making real changes. If your relationship is facing challenges, I can provide the space, tools, and guidance to help you move forward effectively.

Family Therapy

💰 Rate: $375 per session (for two individuals; inquire about group family pricing)

Family dynamics can be complex, emotional, and deeply impactful. Whether navigating parent-child relationships, sibling conflicts, or blended family adjustments, I offer structured and practical family therapy to foster healthier communication, stronger connections, and lasting change.

What to Expect

✔ A safe and neutral space for family members to express themselves
✔ Guidance on improving communication, boundaries, and conflict resolution
✔ A focus on understanding and repairing relationships rather than assigning blame
✔ Strategies tailored to families navigating neurodivergence, cultural identity, and life transitions

I work best with families who want to strengthen their relationships and are willing to engage in the process together. If your family is experiencing tension, miscommunication, or emotional disconnect, therapy can provide the tools to rebuild trust and connection.
