Therapy Services

“What we think, we become.”

– Buddah

Therapy is about facilitating conversations to help someone build self-awareness and healthier relationships with oneself and others. The experience of watching an individual grow beyond their current mindset of sadness, depression, feelings of hopelessness to unworthiness into an individual who truly knows and believes in their personal value is why I love therapy.

Everything is within your power, and your power is within you

-Janice Trachtman

Clients often describe me as easy to talk to, down to earth and compassionate. I have a great sense of humor and an open mind which allows me to quickly connect with others and create a safe therapeutic environment. My natural positive energy helps my clients improve their lives by developing better cognitive and emotional skills.

We offer therapy services to deal with life's stresses, anxiety and depression. Don't let feelings of sadness take over. Improve your life and develop better cognitive and emotional skills.

I understand that the idea of starting therapy can be full of anxiety – after all, you are making a decision to start a new path for yourself! Change – even positive change – can be stressful. So here is how you can expect our collaboration to begin:

After you contact me via phone or email, (I do not have a receptionist and usually return calls and emails within one business day), we will schedule an initial appointment at a location and time that is convenient for you. I am able to provide in-home services within a certain travel distance (slightly higher fee may apply). I am flexible to your schedule within reason to accommodate your busy lives.

Our initial session will give you the opportunity to get to know me and see if I am the right fit for your needs. The therapeutic relationship is critical in establishing trust and safety so making sure you are comfortable is important. We will discuss your reasons for seeking services while I gather a brief history as it relates to those concerns. Together we will develop a treatment plan to establish achievable goals for us to measure your progress. Services will last only as long as you are willing and ready to grow toward your full potential. I look forward to meeting you and working together!

Rates and Fees

I believe therapy should be accessible to those in need and not based on one’s financial status. Please contact me to discuss my rates and fees.

Cancellation Policy

If you do not show up for your scheduled therapy appointment, and you have not notified me at least 24 hours in advance, a $45 cancellation will apply.
