INDIVIDUAL THERAPY 

Counseling combines traditional cognitive behavioral therapy, clinical hypnotherapy and mindfulness based stress reduction training. Health issues of concern include stress related illnesses (hypertension, asthma, headache, gastrointestinal disturbance, dermatological disorders, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and chronic pain), anxiety/depression (panic, phobia, insomnia) eating disorder, weight loss and smoking cessation. 

Appointments held at my home are $150 per session which can last up to three hours. Arrangements can be made to stay overnight at a local hotel in Manchester, Vt. Appointments are only made by telephone to better discuss my practice and patient need.

During the pandemic I am only meeting by telephone, (802)430-7174.

Payment is fee for service paid at the time of service. For telephone appointments, payment is expected by mail to1377 North Rd, Sunderland, Vt. following the appointment.

Usually we see improvements in the first five visits and thereafter meet only in times of increased stress. Patients have the opportunity of continued support in the weekend retreats.
