Frequently Asked Questions | Adventure Therapies

Where are you located?

Adventure Therapies is a 100% virtual practice, so we’ll meet online.

As long as you’re in New York or Florida at the time of your session, we can work together.

Do you offer video sessions?

Yes, I offer virtual/video sessions.

How long is a typical session?

My sessions begin on the hour, and they last 50 minutes.

Do you accept insurance?

I am out of network for insurance.

However, I can provide documentation for you to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement if you have out-of-network mental health benefits.

What is a free initial phone consultation?

I provide a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we will be a good fit for your therapy needs.

You can get started by calling or texting me at (347) 471-0271, or you can email me at adventuretherapies@gmail.com.

Who do you work with?

I work with individuals who are motivated to make changes in their life and open to learning more about themselves.

Are you LGBTQIA-friendly?

My practice is LGBTQIA-friendly and inclusive.

Whether you’re facing trauma, anxiety, self-doubt, or identity-related struggles, I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can heal and grow.

Who benefits from therapy?

Therapy is not just for those in crisis. It’s also for people who want to break negative patterns, process past experiences, or simply gain deeper self-awareness.

Everyone deserves a space to heal, grow, and thrive.

What is EMDR therapy?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy that helps people heal from trauma and distressing experiences.

It works by using guided eye movements to help the brain process and reframe painful memories, reducing their emotional impact.

Over time, EMDR can help you feel less triggered by past events and more in control of your emotions.

Is our work confidential?

Yes, our work together is 100% confidential.

How long have you been in practice?

I have been in practice since 2008. I continue to take continuing education in the areas of my expertise to enhance your therapeutic experience.

Have you been in therapy yourself?

Just like I encourage my clients to prioritize their mental well-being, I do the same for myself.

Therapy helps me continue my personal growth, process life’s challenges, and be the best version of myself – both as a person and a therapist.

It’s not about having a problem; it’s about maintaining emotional health, just like we take care of our physical health.

I believe in the work I do, and I engage in it myself because therapy is valuable for everyone.

Cats or dogs?

I love both! I have had both cats and dogs. I am an animal lover!
