“I came to therapy with curiosity and nerves, but one session with Gary turned them into excitement to make therapy lifelong. From the moment we spoke, his thoughtful, down-to-earth demeanor put me at ease, and his mastery of research showed I was in expert hands. He blended warmth and insight and gave me homework to uncover and reframe my cognitive distortions, with tailored strategies for work and home. Compassionate, intelligent, and truly skilled, Gary is exceptional.”

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

He breaks down tough conversations in a way that makes it easier for my partner and I to tackle difficult topics.
Did a great job of helping me identify negative thoughts and distortions.

Hard to say why I really like him, but I do. I only got to choose two words--not enough.

I do think he asked good questions and got me at times to think about the things that I hold. I also do think he speaks in a very practical way too, which helped me to understand what I can do next.
We are working with Gary for couples therapy, and his expertise and empathy have made a significant difference. He asks thoughtful, insightful questions and has set us on the path to a stronger future by providing valuable resources and practical tools to enhance our success.
