They are as varied as each individual I see. I generally do not have an agenda (with the exception of some of the more behavioral work I do with Body Dysmorphic Disorder). I want to hear what’s on your mind, and strive to meet you where you are in any given moment. I tend to focus on “here and now” issues, taking into account the ways in which your personal history might be influencing your thoughts, feelings and behavior. These often become manifest in the treatment itself, highlighting core issues in an immediate, observable way that can be useful for us in getting to know and understand you more deeply.

In a word, no. I find that meeting less frequently than once a week results in a lot of “catch up” work, without allowing time for deeper introspection and understanding. Since my goal is to get to know you as deeply as possible, I do require a minimum of a once weekly commitment to therapy.

For private pay clients, my fee is $225 per session. I am also in-network with NYU's student health insurance (CHP). If you have out-of-network health insurance benefits with another carrier, I'll provide you with an itemized bill to submit to your insurance company at the end of each month.

Reduced fee services are available on a limited basis.

I accept cash, credit cards or check.

Depends on the degree of messiness (and the smell) of the food you’re consuming. We’ll talk about it.
