Who do you work with?
I work predominantly with adults, teens, and children 8+, who are looking for lasting recovery from trauma related disorders, depression, anxiety, dissociation, anger issues, phobias, and other challenges that may be born from traumatic experiences.
Do you do telehealth?
I do telehealth session for those who live an hour or further away, for inclement weather, or mild sickness. Hybrid is available as well should their be transportation difficulties. However, you must physically be in the State of Connecticut as required by law.
How often do we meet?
We do weekly meetings to ensure quality care and consistent progress. I sometimes see people twice a week if clinically appropriate.
How long does it take?
Sessions are about 53 minutes. I find that many people can complete treatment within 6-12 months. Complex presentations can take much longer. Every situation is different and every person unique, so it can be difficult to provide a concrete estimate.

The Therapy Bardo is transformational space between an individual’s life before and after they complete psychotherapy.
