Therapy Intensives

Are you ready to try something new? Therapy intensives are a great option if you want to: 1) Accelerate progress by reaping the benefits of months of change into a supercharged few days; think of it like a therapeutic boot camp or personal growth retreat from the comfort of your own home, 2) Fit therapy into your busy schedule with minimal disruption and maximum flexibility. The weekly model works great for some, but is not ideal for those who do not have much wiggle room in their schedules, 3) Provide immediate relief from intense or overwhelming symptoms. Therapy intensives work quickly to flesh out the problem(s) that have been preventing you from being the best version of yourself, & 4) Spend less money in the long run by reaching your goals in a fraction of the time. 

Learn life changing skills in the four pillars of Dialectal Behavioral Therapy: 1) Mindfulness, 2) Emotion Regulation, 3) Distress Tolerance, & 4) Interpersonal Effectiveness. In this 3-hour crash course, you will learn hand-selected DBT skills best suited to your individual needs. This intensive is perfect for those who want to learn the best of the best DBT skills. It is also well-suited for those that are hesitant about a group format, as well as for those who want to build skills faster than in the traditional 6-month DBT approach.

Go deeper into your internal world by: 1) Moving through identity-related questions, 2) Confronting what feels scariest, 3) Making changes to live as your most authentic self. In this intensive therapy, there will be a mixture of thought-provoking therapeutic exercises, as well as a traditional talk-therapy approach that goes deeper in one session than the traditional model of weekly sessions.

Improve your mental & physical game by: 1) Identifying causes & working through performance-related road blocks, plateaus, & slumps, 2) Learning strategies to take care of your mind, 3) Processing events taking place in your personal life that may be interfering with your sport. This approach is helpful for athletes in-season, who need to make a lot of progress quickly due to time constraints. It can also be effective for those who are looking to change their mental approach/mindset prior to their season starting.

. Deepen your existing relationships with family members, romantic partners, & friends by: 1) Improving communication and conflict resolution skills, & 2) Working through long-standing road blocks with a trusted professional. Parents, best friends, partners, siblings, teammates, & more are encouraged to attend!

Online Individual Therapy

I also offer online individual therapy sessions (weekly or biweekly) for those interested in a more traditional treatment approach. I see clients with short-term concerns, as well as those battling long-standing ones. Sessions range from 50-55 minutes long and can be billed through insurance or paid through private pay ($200). For private pay patients who are out of network, I can provide superbills for you to submit to your insurance and get reimbursed (typically 80% of the cost, but depends on your insurance plan). I also have limited “sliding scale” payment slots, which feature a discounted rate for those who make under an certain annual income threshold. Final note: sliding scale sessions are NOT reimbursable by insurance.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is ideal for those who want to learn about themselves, learn about others, & connect with members of their community or those who share similar struggles. It is also a lower cost option than both therapy intensives and individual therapy. The following groups are open at this time:

Surviving and Thriving in Difficult Times- DBT Skills Group (Virtual). Runs weekly from 6-7 pm on Tuesdays

Queer, Trans, & Questioning Process Group (In-person in Center City Philadelphia). Runs weekly from 6:30-7:30 pm on Wednesdays
