Who I work with

I'm a New York State Licensed Psychologist located in the Albany area, but with online sessions, I am able to work with all New Yorkers. I am also licensed to offer virtual services to individuals living in Vermont. In certain circumstances, I am able to work with people who live in other states.

For individual gut-brain therapy, I work with adults aged 21+.

However, because Mind Over IBS™ is an educational program, enrollment will be open worldwide.

In addition to IBS Psychology, I also maintain a small boutique private psychotherapy practice. If you're interested in learning more, click here to visit my other website.

Getting Started

The best way to make your initial contact with me is to give me a call at 518-290-6706 or email [email protected].

From there, we'll schedule a free phone consultation that will last up to 15 minutes. In that time, we'll briefly discuss what you're seeking to accomplish, whether I might be a good match for your needs, and logistics. If you prefer, this can be done via email.

The Process

Once we schedule an appointment, I'll send you an invitation to my secure client portal, where you'll access your paperwork. That's where you'll be able to sign onto your sessions.

My practice is currently online only. Sessions are conducted via an easy to navigate, HIPAA compliant platform, so you don't have to leave your home or office. Online sessions are so safe, simple, and convenient. My clients have been loving it!

Fees

For individual Gut-Brain therapy, my fee is $200 per session. You may purchase blocks of sessions and be eligible for a discount.

Your health insurance policy may cover our work together.

I am currently in-network with:

  • CDPHP
  • Highmark/Blue Shield of Northeastern New York

I am also in-network with the following providers through my partnership with Headway.

  • Aetna
  • Cigna
  • Oscar Health
  • Oxford
  • United Healthcare
  • Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield

If you participate in any of the plans listed above, you may be responsible for a copayment or deductible. The amount you will be responsible for is dictated by your insurance plan and I am required to collect it.

I don't accept other insurance plans at present but at your request will provide you with a statement you can send to your insurance company to get reimbursed for some of the costs of our work together.

If you don't intend to use insurance, click here to understand your rights to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" of costs.

Payment is required at the time of service. I will charge your credit card on file at the end of your session.

Cancellation Policy

Since the scheduling of an appointment involves the reservation of time specifically for you, a minimum of 24 hours notice is required for rescheduling or canceling an appointment. Failing to do so will result in a no-show/late cancellation fee of the full cost of your session, and this is not billable to insurance.
