June 2023:
Due to my own family's need for my flexibility, I am not currently providing ongoing therapy.
I am conducting evaluations and consultations for attorneys, state agencies, families, or other interested parties. I work mainly via telehealth, with in-person observations or court appearances in the Boston area as needed.
I am running low-cost informal online LGBTQ+ social/support groups for youth 6-18.
Payment options:
I am a CPCS vendor for Massachusetts court evaluations/consultations.
I am not currently an in-network provider with any insurance company. I provide superbills for potential reimbursement from insurance.
