Psychotherapy Services
Adults and Adolescents

Individual psychotherapy services are offered online or in-person. Research suggests therapy completed online via video chat is equally effective as in-person therapy for the majority of issues. Therapy via telephone can be planned when necessary but is not ideal. Our goal is to provide a welcoming, warm, non-judgmental environment that allows clients to share confidently and freely. We offer therapy for a wide range of symptom severity, for various psychological disorders, and for more common difficulties that don't require a diagnosis, including:

  • anxiety/stress

  • phobias/fears

  • panic

  • trauma

  • social anxiety

  • assertiveness

  • obsessions/compulsions

  • depression/mood

  • self-concept/self-esteem

  • insomnia/sleep difficulties

  • interpersonal/relationship difficulties

  • healthy use of emotions

  • other issues

 

Sometimes it is helpful to complete a brief assessment (1 to 3 sessions) with questionnaires, feedback, and treatment planning. This helps to determine what specific issues are present, to arrive at a diagnosis if needed, and to agree upon the best treatment plan. Therapy can range from brief to long-term depending on your needs, but most commonly ranges from 6 to 15 sessions. Session frequency ranges from weekly to monthly, also depending on your specific needs. 

Please feel free to contact us by e-mail or telephone with any questions. We're always happy to consult free of charge and with no commitment required in order to help determine your needs and if the services I offer will be helpful for you.
