Shore Emotional Healing
Psychotherapy for Adults, Children, Couples & Families
Services
I provide individual, group, and family psychotherapy to persons of all ages. Regardless of the modality of treatment, my practice is grounded in a client-centered approach and can incorporate expressive art therapies on your journey to wellness. I will assist you in identifying your strengths and goals, and implementing a plan, tailored to your needs, to reach your goals.
Services, treatment approaches, specialties, insurance and fees are described below.
​
Treatment Approaches
There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to counseling. Each person’s story is unique, and together we’ll explore treatment options—including expressive art therapies—to find what helps you heal, grow, and thrive.
CBT
A practical approach to creating lasting change
CBT is a short-term, goal-oriented therapy that helps you identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. By focusing on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions, CBT empowers you to reshape your perspective, manage emotions more effectively, and experience lasting improvements in mood and functioning.
​
Grief and Loss Counseling
Finding peace and meaning after loss
Grief comes in many forms—death, divorce, relocation, job loss, or other major life changes. Each person experiences grief differently. I offer compassionate counseling that honors your individual process and helps you navigate emotions such as sadness, numbness, confusion, or isolation in a safe, supportive space.
Parenting Support
Helping families grow together
Parenting is deeply rewarding—but it can also be overwhelming. Whether you’re adjusting to life as a new parent or guiding a teen through adolescence, I provide tools and support to help you understand your child’s needs, strengthen communication, and create a nurturing environment where your family can flourish.
EMDR
​Reprocessing trauma for lasting relief
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps clients heal from trauma, PTSD, anxiety, grief, and other distressing experiences. EMDR allows the brain to reprocess painful memories so they no longer feel overwhelming. The memory remains—but the emotional charge fades, bringing calm and clarity.
Mid-life Transitions
Turning change into opportunity
Midlife can bring powerful emotional and physical changes that spark questions about identity, purpose, and fulfillment. Therapy can help you embrace this stage as a time of growth—cultivating self-awareness, self-compassion, and renewed meaning. Together, we’ll focus on helping you rediscover joy, curiosity, and connection at every age.
Children and Adolescents
Creating a safe space for young minds to grow
Children and teens often lack the language to express complex emotions like sadness, worry, or low self-esteem. I offer a welcoming space designed specifically for young people to explore their thoughts and feelings through age-appropriate activities and conversation.
Parents are kept informed with general updates, and your involvement is encouraged to support your child’s progress and confidence.
Crime Victim Support
Restoring safety and trust after trauma
Crime can deeply affect your sense of safety, stability, and faith in others. I have extensive experience supporting victims through counseling and advocacy, including collaboration with the Victims Witness Program. My goal is to help you process fear, anger, and confusion, rebuild confidence, and regain a sense of security and empowerment.
LGBTQ Affirmative Therapy
Affirmation, equality, and respect for all identities
LGBTQ+ Affirmative Therapy embraces a positive and empowering view of gender and sexual diversity. My practice is grounded in equality, respect, and affirmation. I celebrate each client’s individuality and address the impact of homophobia, transphobia, and heterosexism with compassion and strength.
Everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and accepted—exactly as they are.
Fees
Although I do not bill or accept insurance, many insurance companies are willing to provide reimbursement for services provided by out-of-network providers. If you have health insurance with mental health coverage, upon request, I will provide you a receipt to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. If financial hardship interferes with your ability to pay for treatment, a sliding scale may be offered. Sliding scale appointments are offered on a limited basis.
Fees: Determined based on service type and duration of session.
Initial assessment: $200
Individual sessions: $185
Family therapy sessions: $200

No Surprises Act/ Good Faith Estimate Notice
Under the new “No Surprises Act law,” you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost for non-emergency items or services
Under the law, healthcare providers are required to give patients who don’t have health insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
-
The Good Faith Estimate must be provided in writing one day before the onset of treatment. You can also request a Good Faith Estimate at any time during treatment
-
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you may dispute the bill. More information is available at: https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
This means you will not receive surprise bills after the fact, and that you have a right to know what all services will cost up front. My fees are listed above. It is not possible to know in advance how many sessions you may need. Treatment frequency is determined by several variables, including diagnosis and/or presenting concerns, interventions used, and most importantly, your need for support and your ability to engage in treatment. You will be involved every step of the way in your treatment. In short, you can estimate your costs by multiplying the number of sessions you plan to attend by your session cost.
