The intake process comprises the first 1-3 sessions. Intake sessions are 50 minute appointments. During the first few sessions, we will talk about what brings you to therapy and we will ask a set of routine questions to get a comprehensive sense of you, your situation, and possible treatment goals. Then we may share preliminary impressions of how we will approach your concerns in therapy. If you have been in therapy before, we like to ask about what you found useful and what you did not.

The intake process is an opportunity to ask questions - especially if this is your first time in therapy. After our initial consultation period, you and the clinician will decide mutually if you would like to proceed with treatment. Subsequently, you will meet at least once per week with your therapist.

Individual Therapy sessions are 45 minutes long.

Couples Therapy sessions are 60 minutes long.

We work with a broad range of adults and teens who are managing school, demanding careers, and life, while also experiencing anxiety and mood dysregulation or relationship issues.

We also specialize in parenting, pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, and perinatal loss. We work with a lot of moms who are experiencing high anxiety and/or mood changes during and after childbirth.

Many people we work with seek clarity in their relationships and are experiencing relationship anxiety. Please see individual clinician specialties for more information.

Great question! These are different styles and theories of therapeutic treatment that our clinicians have expertise in using with patients. It can be confusing so we’ve put together more information

Psychodynamic therapy is an insight-based approach that focuses on unconscious processes that manifest in our behavior and thoughts - over time we can become aware of these processes and create changes or deeper meaning from developing self-awareness. Psychodynamic therapy is a great tool for understanding or growing from past events and improving relationships (more on Psychodynamic therapy).

CBT, or Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, is a present-oriented therapy focused on the interaction between our thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT is helpful in learning to challenge our reactions to events, set goals, and overcome obstacles (more on CBT).

Mindfulness-based therapy incorporates breathwork, meditation, and awareness of present-moment thoughts and sensations. Mindfulness is a powerful tool for developing resilience to big emotions and anxiety (more about mindfulness-based therapies).

Somatic therapy utilizes mind-body techniques to engage the connection between the two and deepen the healing of past traumas and relieve physical pains in the body holistically. Somatic therapy engages with and focuses on calming the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) which can become overreactive and in a state of hyper-arousal from past traumas (more on Somatic therapy).

In order to provide you the best standard of care, we are an out of network practice, which means we are not directly IN with insurance but we can provide you with superbills for you to submit for reimbursement if you have out of network benefits.

There are many reasons our practice does not work directly with insurance. First, we aim to provide our therapists with an equitable rate of compensation, and by being out of network we do not have to negotiate with insurance companies who keep rates unfairly low. Additionally, we the clinicians determine the course of therapy instead of nameless and faceless auditors in the insurance company who may use arbitrary cut-offs rather than clinical data.

If you have out of network benefits, we will provide you with superbills for reimbursement. Many patients receive reimbursement of 50-80% of fees depending on their plan. Reimbursify is an app that many of our patients have found helpful in making the reimbursement process.

Ask your insurance if you have out of network behavioral health benefits. Most sessions use the following CPT codes:

90834 - 45-minute individual therapy session

90837 - 53+ minute individual session

90847 - 30+ minute couples therapy session

During your phone consultation, we will discuss our fees.

If you cannot afford our fees or need help finding another provider we will be happy to help you. Our fees reflect the market rate for NYC and are commensurate with our psychologist’s doctoral level training and specializations.

Some of our therapists may offer limited sliding scale spots for financial need, pending availability.

We accept major credit cards, Zelle and FSA/HSA cards. Payment is due upon service at each session. We can provide a detailed superbill at the end of each month that you may submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

Intake $250-375

Individual Therapy $200-350/session

Couples Therapy $300/session
