Insurance Policies: My patients file their own insurance claims, and I assist as needed.  Unfortunately, many insurance carriers require "managed care" that often involves repeated reviews.  It is your responsibility to check with your carrier so we can know in advance what your coverage will require and discuss our options.  I do not participate directly in insurance plans, and I am not a Medicare provider, but often you can file your own claims.  If fees are a hardship for you, please discuss your circumstances with me.

SPECIALTIES

TREATMENT MODALITIES:
Psychoanalysis- Adult
Individual Psychotherpay- Adult and Adolescent

A private confidential relationship with a therapist allows you to explore your difficulties in new ways. After we have met several times, I will explain what I understand and what kind of treatment I think will be helpful. We will consider the impact of stress in your life, the challenges of growth into new phases of life, and also long-standing stumbling blocks in your ability to cope with life.  I am a psychiatrist and a psychoanalyst. My strength is as a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst, but we will think about other treatment options also.

 For example, medication can be a useful adjunct to relieve symptoms that are incapacitating thereby freeing a person to explore the origins of those symptoms.  We will also consider what frequency of psychotherapy and what kind of psychotherapy (including psychoanalysis) will be most helpful at this point in your life. 

I am a past president of the NC Psychoanalytic Society and am committed to promoting the availability of psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy in our state.  I also teach in both the psychoanalytic psychotherapy program and the psychoanalytic institute.  I believe that continuing to learn from our patients is crucial to being able to help patients grow and develop.
