Yes. Many insurance companies reimburse a significant portion of the cost of psychotherapy. For insurance purposes, I am considered an out-of-network provider.

It is best to determine the exact details of your policy ahead of time, including what benefits are available regarding out-of-network providers (and if your insurance will reimburse several hours of therapy in one day or one week if doing intensives). I can also provide you with a Superbill receipt for all direct contact therapy services as requested.

We see clients both online (via Zoom) and in person in the office in Aventura, Florida. Some clients also prefer a combination of both online and in-office for their convenience. We can discuss what would be most beneficial for you in the consultation.

Office hours are from 9:30am-4pm Tuesday through Thursday, and 9:30am-2pm on Fridays. Time preferences and out of office hours are subject to availability.

This is decided on a case-by-case basis depending on the needs of the client. Clients generally start at weekly sessions with an option to move to biweekly as time moves on.

Our practice works with adults and teens ages 14 and up.

EMDR Therapy is a form of trauma therapy that uses bilateral stimulation (eye movements or tapping) to process through emotion. EMDR helps people connect to their feelings, helping them to strengthen the helpful ones and process out the more difficult ones.

Ketamine assisted psychotherapy or KAP is the use of Ketamine to assist with mental health treatment for trauma, depression, anxiety, spirituality, or other mental health concerns. KAP involves the preparation for the medicine; assistance during the dosing session; and the integration work afterwards.

Trauma-integrated approaches like EMDR, IFS, Somatic, and Ketamine work with people in a way that traditional skill-based talk therapies (like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) cannot. In trauma therapy we are able to address the core emotions involved and process through them at the root level. This allows people to safely move through the emotion and process through their experiences in a healthy way. After treatment people often express feeling “lighter” and more free to approach life situations without the negative charged emotions that were triggering them in the past. Feeling integrated allows for increased perspective, purpose, and meaning-making that better aligns with the person’s values.

Trauma therapy done properly by a trained trauma professional will not overwhelm you. Trauma therapists are trained in a trauma-informed approach that highlight sensitivity and regulation in our approach to trauma treatment. Difficult feelings may come up at times when you are ready to process them, but not in a forced or retraumatizing manner.
