FAQ

  • What kind of therapy is this?

    This is a whole-person, collaborative approach that draws from a wide range of evidence-based models—including Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Internal Family Systems, Humanistic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Functional Family Therapy, Hypnotherapy, and traditional meditation practices. Part of our work together is identifying the approaches and supports that meet you where you are right now and letting the process adapt as you grow.

  • Do you accept insurance?

    No. Insurance companies typically put limits on the kind of work we can do together and the time we can spend doing it. A personalized, 1:1 approach needs the freedom to move at the pace and depth that works for you. We can create a flexible fee schedule if that would make the work more accessible.

  • Is this a good fit for people who’ve never done therapy before?

    Yes. Whether this is your first experience or you’ve been in therapy before, the work adapts to you. Since you’ll drive what we focus on and how we work, no prior experience is necessary. The only thing you need to bring is a willingness to engage in the process.

  • What can I expect in the first session?

    Our first session is a conversation, not an assessment. We’ll talk about what’s working in your life, where you want more, and the changes you’d like to see. From there, we’ll start shaping the work together. You set the pace; I bring the questions, perspective, and structure to make that first conversation meaningful without pressure.

  • Do you work with clients outside your local area or across state lines

    Yes. I can work with clients in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Vermont via telehealth. In-person meetings are available in some cases with advance planning.

  • What are concierge therapy services?

    Concierge therapy is for clients who want a more flexible, high-touch level of support. That can mean multiple meetings a week, brief check-ins, or including other people and professionals from your life in the work. For those who want sustained access and coordination over a set period of time, a concierge model allows us to work more intensively together. In these cases, we agree on a set monthly fee (minimum three months) and I make myself available beyond standard session times to keep the work moving in real time.
