Practice Description

Smart therapy for smart people. I can work with highly intelligent people enduring complex personal and interpersonal distress. I meet them where they are, understand, accept, support and help them to figure out how to be themselves in the world. to live freely and more authentically. I can help them to cultivate a life that has authentic meaning for them.

Existential Analysis gives us the tools to be free. Because of my analytical skills, I am a good fit for those highly intellectual clients who struggle with emotional and psychological conflict. People in these positions are often facing high stress and even ethical conflicts. I can help resolve these. Being on the other side of multiple traumas, I find that working with other persons who are in the midst of trauma or survivors of trauma very fulfilling. Work and life trauma are important to address.

From both personal experience and research, I understand that being highly analytical (as I am) can cause it's own problems, within ourselves and with our interactions with others. Highly intellectual people can become really good at becoming lost from everyone, including themselves. The world is more complicated in some ways, relationships can be difficult. I am uniquely qualified to deal with highly intelligent persons in professional positions seeking psychotherapeutic support to help themselves live authentic, whole lives.

How do you handle billing?

This practice is self pay only. Sessions are $350 (I have decades of experience and two terminal degrees.) Superbills can be made available for clients to submit to their insurance company. Existential Analysis also requires a time commitment, we need to meet weekly for several months before moving out from there. Growth is hard.
