Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Billy! I am a clinical psychologist offering telehealth services. I received my doctorate from The New School for Social Research in 2016, and have been in private practice since 2018.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My clients are often exhausted from the struggle of trying to function in the world we live in. Burdened by trauma, stress, and painful relationships, they come into therapy with the faintest flicker of hope. This bit of hope, along with curiosity about their internal world, are all that is needed to begin.

What you can expect from our first session

My first goal is for you to feel as safe and comfortable as possible opening up about painful experiences, memories, or anything else you’re able to talk about that can help us begin to understand. We may talk about things that happened in your childhood, or we may not. We’ll probably for sure talk about what’s going on now. Over time we’ll be able to put the pieces together with a new understanding.
