I am an out of network provider practicing in California. I can offer you a superbill which you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement. You can also use your Flexible Spending Account for payment for therapy. I accept cash, checks (for in person sessions), credit cards, paypal and Venmo (for virtual sessions). I do not offer free consultations at this time.
I believe a 15 minute phone session is not clinically appropriate to determine if I am able to help you with your needs. My initial consultation is a 50 minute session for a reduced fee of $ 90 where we can discuss mental health needs, fit and planning for treatment or referrals for other therapists and resources.
I believe therapy should be accessible to everyone. If you need services, and have difficulty paying for therapy or do not have health insurance, please ask about sliding scale spots.
You can terminate therapy at any time with a notice and we will discuss a plan for closure and support for the end of therapy .
If you need to cancel our session, please do so at least 24 hours in advance. Otherwise, you will be charged for the missed appointment.
