Deciding to start therapy can be an intimidating and confusing process. How do you find a therapist? How do you decide? There are so many different therapists and types of therapy you may feel overwhelmed and may not know where to begin.
Hopefully, some of the information provided on this website about my psychotherapy practice has helped you with this decision.
If you are ready to start therapy you may be wondering what happens next?
The answer depends on a number of factors.
If you know you are ready to begin and you want to schedule an appointment you may either send an email to info@ncpsychologist.com
Or you may call me at (919) 935-1901 and I will schedule your appointment within 24 hours. Afternoon and evening appointments are available.
* A note about telephone calls. I know that many people don't like to leave messages; however, if you call and the call goes to voicemail please leave a message. I am unable to answer calls while I am in session but will return your call as soon as I am available. You can also schedule a telephone consultation using the online scheduling program.
If you are still not sure or if you have a few questions you want answered first we can set up a free telephone consultation to answer your questions.
After our consultation, if you decide you want to proceed and schedule an appointment I will provide you with a copy of my office policies, privacy policies, and consent forms. I ask that you read these prior to your appointment, complete the necessary forms, and sign where appropriate. We will review these documents at your first therapy session. You can schedule the free consultation by either calling or clicking the blue button at the top or bottom of this page that says schedule a free telephone consultation. The button will take you to a confidential online scheduling program with several available times during the week. If none of the times are convenient call now and let me know some times that you have available to talk.
We will spend the first few psychotherapy sessions taking a detailed history and gathering information necessary to develop a plan of action for your therapy. Together we will develop a plan that will help you meet the goals you wish to attain through counseling. In the case of child and adolescent therapy, parents and clients will be involved in developing the plan.
Throughout the therapy process we will assess the appropriateness of your plan to see if it is working and change it as needed. Some people begin psychotherapy wishing to address an immediate issue causing pain and are satisfied to address this problem. Once the crisis is over and the pain reduced or eliminated they terminate therapy.
However, others may decide to pursue deeper issues once they have reached their initial treatment goals. Whatever you decide is best for you, we will work together to develop the most effective treatment.
I am often asked “Will my mom or dad be involved in my treatment sessions?” It depends on your needs and the needs of your family. With children the family is involved in therapy sessions as they play a major part in helping the client/family achieve their goals. Individual therapy, family therapy sessions, or parent coaching may be required depending on your family needs.
For teens the answer to this question is a little bit more nuanced and the response is “maybe”or “as needed.”
Some teens have problems and concerns that they don’t feel comfortable discussing in front of their parents. In that case we will work together to meet your treatment needs, those of your family, respect your family culture, and maintain your confidentiality.
Another question I am often asked is about payment. I ask clients to pay at the beginning of each session. Some clients wish to submit claims for reimbursement to their insurance carrier and others prefer to simply cover the costs without involving their insurance provider. There are both good and bad points to both and we can discuss these concerns during your initial therapy session. If you choose to submit a claim for reimbursement I will provide you with a receipt to submit to your insurance carrier and they will reimburse you directly. If you are a retired FDNY 9/11 survivor, payment arrangements are made through FDNY and I can make the necessary arrangements through FDNY counseling services.
Payments are accepted via cash, check, all major credit cards, or PayPal. If you are paying via PayPal please do so prior to coming to your session.

I am grateful that you are here and am hopeful to begin a collaborative journey with you. As an LCSW it is my mission to provide a supportive and empowering environment while assisting individuals on their personal journeys through life.
I have over ten years of experience working with children, adolescents, young adults and families with a wide range of presenting issues including anxiety, peer relationship issues, social concerns, academic/work struggles, depression, difficult family dynamics, as well as stress and life transitions. I am able to work with individuals or with groups in order to provide you with the best therapeutic approach and one you are most comfortable with.
Together we will work on managing symptoms, building skills and changing perspectives. I believe in a client centered, strengths based approach in order to help individuals find balance, empowerment and provide a safe environment while navigating life’s challenges.
I am also trained in Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples!

We will work together to identify your strengths and goals, and to overcome life’s adversities. Are you a high achiever fueled by your inner critic? Is your inner critic impeding your own happiness? Do you feel like your inner critic is the only mechanism driving your success? Are you dissatisfied with your life? Let's work together confidentially to unravel self-limiting beliefs to optimize growth and self-awareness.
I use a range of therapeutic techniques best suited for each individual, ranging from Existentialism to Internal Family Systems. You are uniquely you, and your treatment should reflect that. I specialize in the treatment of chronic health conditions and individuals with overactive inner critics and low self-esteem.
The first step of reaching out is the hardest, but you are here for a reason. Let's tackle the next steps together. No soft voice here; just a real and relatable gal ready to listen, challenge you, and aid you in your growth. I greatly look forward to hearing from you.

I have years of experience working with adolescents, family conflict, eating disorders, parenting challenges, and couples.
My therapy style is client focused and I use a wide variety of techniques to tailor to the clients needs.
I am a family therapist by training and use a Structural Family Therapy approach to identify the needs of the family system, identify the problematic cycles and the internal strengths, and improve the overall functioning. I can help families learn to manage the challenges of parenting adolescents with big feelings in a safe relationship that develops trust and respect.
I teach my clients healthy coping skills with a blend of cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. You will learn how to allow space for being uncomfortable and gain confidence to be able to regulate your emotions and not let your emotions control you. Emotional progress is not linear and I will be here with you during the ups and downs.
Therapy is for everyone, whether you’ve experienced trauma, want to learn skills to better your relationships or regulate your own emotions and reactions.

What is an intern and how do they differ from licensed clinicians?
Interns and practicum students are completing their graduate degree in Psychology, Social Work or Marriage and Family Therapy. They are not yet licensed and work under the supervision of our Clinical Director, their University Graduate Professor, as well as a post-doctoral graduate student. Interns are required to complete a specific number of supervised 1:1 clinical hours and may be required to audio or video tape 3 sessions total per semester. The benefit of working with an intern is that they are in University Programs learning the latest counseling and treatment techniques. They are well supervised and they see clients on a very reduced fee schedule of $15-$50/session.

With years of experience working with teens and adults I am passionate about helping others find solutions and motivation to living an abundant life. Leading with compassion and authenticity allows me to create an environment where you will feel comfortable. It is my desire to join you in the collaboration process wherever you are and assist you in setting personal goals and creating a plan to accomplish them. Each session will be tailored to your unique needs. I use a positive integrative approach in therapy to help you identify aspects of your life that are working and areas where you want to improve. We will focus more on finding solutions than identifying problems. Depending on your goals, our relationship can be short- term allowing you to move forward with more confidence.
Some areas of my counseling interest include improving communication skills, challenges in parenting, life transitions, couples counseling, premarital & newlywed counseling, infertility, and adoption, as well as depression and anxiety.
My greatest passion in life is helping others become the best version of themselves and as your therapist, I look forward to embarking on this journey together.

My greatest passion in life is helping others become the best version of themselves and as your therapist, I look forward to embarking on this journey together. Starting therapeutic services can be intimidating, but as your counselor, my main goal is to create a safe space that allows an open and transparent line of communication. I believe that everyone has the capacity within themselves to maximize their own well-being, and I am happy to be a guide and helping hand in this process. Whether it be anxiety, depression, or trauma, our space will be a judgment-free zone that promotes empathy and autonomy. Fostering independence is my main goal as your therapist because it involves you taking the learned skills and being able to apply them to life conflicts outside of the session. My theoretical approach emphasizes building an empathetic relationship and addressing maladaptive thought patterns in my client. Building an empathetic relationship is vital to the success of therapy and I look forward to hearing about your story with open ears.
As for my background, I am currently in a Master’s program for Counselor Education at East Carolina University. Krippa Family has given me the privilege of joining their team in order to complete my practicum and internship and I look forward to growing in my career as a counselor.
