Sessions are one hour long and typically occur once a week. As you begin to heal, regulate your nervous system, and feel better, we will shift to every other week, and eventually less frequently, tapering to meet your needs.

If you are utilizing health insurance, insurance companies require a clinical diagnosis for billing purposes. In these cases, I frequently utilize PTSD or Adjustment Disorder if they accurately fit your situation. If you are paying out-of-pocket, I do not assign a diagnosis unless you specifically request one out of your own curiosity.

Living in the Monadnock region can feel like a beautiful but small fishbowl. I practice the utmost care regarding your privacy. Everything shared in my office remains strictly between us. If we happen to cross paths in public, I will always take my cue from you; it is entirely your choice whether you would like to say hello or maintain your privacy.

The therapeutic relationship is the single greatest predictor of successful healing.
