Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept insurance?
I am a out-of-network provider. That means if you have a PPO or your insurance will cover out-of-network services you may be able to get some reimbursement for your therapy sessions. I can provide a super bill for you to submit for reimbursement, upon request. I also work with a company that may be able to help you with reimbursement from sessions if you have out of network benefits. If you do have those benefits, the company will file claims and handle the claims for you. It is important to note that reimbursement is not a guarantee. I operate widely on a private pay basis, meaning unless client are using their PPO benefits, they pay for services directly at the private pay rate.
What is your fee?
My fee for individual therapy is $200 per session.
What can I expect from my first session?
If during our consultation call we decide we are a good fit, we will schedule an initial/ first appointment, which is a chance to get to know you and talk about your goals for therapy. Before this initial/first appointment, I will ask you to fill out some paperwork that will let me know some more information about you and tell you about my practice policies.
I live outside of California, can I still work with you?
Therapists can only provide services in the state they are licensed in, so if you don’t live in California, unfortunately, no I cannot work with you.
Do you offer services in person?
I offer services primarily via Telehealth/virtually. The best part about this option is that it lets us meet in the comfort of your space, as long as you are located in California.
I have a limited amount of spots for walk & talk sessions for clients that live in San Diego.
How often will we meet & for how long?
Sessions are 50 minutes long and I meet with clients weekly, as from my experience this allows us to do the deeper work. We may decide to go biweekly as we decide to close up our work together.
When it comes to how long you will be in therapy, it’s all about what works for you, most of the clients I work with prefer longer term work together.
