I do not currently have available therapy openings. Please check back as I update this page when I do have openings.

I can put you on a waitlist, but I’m unable to give a timeline for when a spot might be available. Although my therapy slots are full, if you feel I would be a good fit for you, I supervise all of the clinicians in my practice. They are wonderful providers who can provide excellent care. We also have therapy trainees who are able to offer sessions at a sliding scale rate of $30-90 per session.
