Getting to know Griffin Halperin

I have experience working with people facing anxiety and depression, and individuals struggling with patterns of codependency and conflict in their intimate relationships. I have also worked with people who feel disconnected from their bodies, their creativity, and their sexuality. I have helped people navigating difficult life transitions, as well as those surviving trauma and loss. In my practice, I am sensitive to how marginalization and stigma impact mental health, as well as the ability to seek support. Some forms of change can only take shape in conversation with someone trained to listen beneath the surface. With time and trust, we’ll explore the underlying feelings, beliefs, and conflicts shaping your experience — deepening insight and expanding your capacity to live with a sense of freedom, clarity, and connection.

What should a new client know about working with you?

As a psychoanalytic therapist, my approach is marked by openness, curiosity, and respect. I view therapy as a collaborative effort and honor the unique experience of each person I work with. While this process requires courage and patience, it can promote meaningful and lasting change. If this resonates with you, I invite you to contact me.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Once you make an appointment, I will contact you to send you our initial paperwork. During our initial meeting we'll start getting a sense of whether it would be a good fit to work with each other. If we decide to continue working together, I'll suggest to meet at least weekly, so that we can start developing a consistent flow to our work together. Sessions are usually 55 minutes long.

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance

More information on payments and coverage

I am in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) PPO plans. If you have this type of plan, we will submit insurance claims directly. You might be responsible for part of the cost if you have a deductible or a copay. We will try to verify benefits before our first appointment, so that we have an idea of what to expect. When contacting me, please remember to add a photo of your insurance card. If you have a different insurance provider (not BCBS PPO), you will be responsible for our full fee each session. We will provide you a bill that you can use to seek reimbursement from your insurance company, provided that your plan has out-of-network benefits.
