  • Therapy costs $185 for a 50 minute couples session and $175 for a 50 minute individual session.

    People engage in sex therapy for a variety of reasons. They range from wanting to focus on specific issues or problems to simply wanting a better sex life.

    While sex therapy can be vulnerable, the upside is potentially a better, more pleasurable sex life, an improved sense of self, and a better connection to your partner.

  • The frequency of therapy will depend on your unique needs. I typically recommend weekly sessions for the first month of therapy to start gaining momentum and moving in the right direction.

  • Yes, I offer both Telehealth and in-person therapy services in Northbrook.

  • I do not accept insurance, I can provide you with a monthly superbill and you can use that information to submit to your insurance provider or FSA/HSA for reimbursement. To know what your insurance covers for an out of network provider, you will need to contact your insurance carrier.

  • Credit or Debit cards are accepted, or FSA/HSA cards. Payment is collected following each session.

  • If you need to cancel or change a session, please email me or send me a message through the client portal. If you change or cancel a session within 24 hours of the start of the session, you will be charged the full session fee. If you are more than 15 minutes late to a session, it’s considered a missed session and you will also be charged the full session fee.

    Hopefully this never happens!

  • The answer here is simple: I see insurance as inconsistent with client care. Without accepting insurance, I am able to work with a variety of clients based on my strengths as a therapist and your needs as a client, instead of who is in-network. You can schedule with me as often as you need, based on your life, rather than what your insurance dictates. Furthermore, your information always stays private.

  • Yes, I have a sliding scale. However, all sliding scale openings are currently filled.

  • Yes! In compliance with the No Surprises Act, I provide good faith estimates. Good faith estimates are made available when you schedule your first session.

  • The length of treatment depends on your goals. For some folks, brief therapy makes a lot of sense. For others, they are looking for long term support. There’s no one right way! Keep in mind, length of treatment is ultimately entirely up to you.
