Thinking About Psychotherapy?
It’s completely normal to have questions or feel unsure about where to start. That’s why I offer a free phone consultation to help you explore whether psychoanalytic psychotherapy might be right for you or your child.
This conversation is a chance for you to share your concerns, ask questions, and get a feel for how I work. Together, we can decide on the next steps and whether a more detailed assessment is appropriate.
