I offer a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation before our first appointment.
My fees for individual therapy are consistent with those of doctoral-level clinicians trained in evidence-based treatments in California and will be reviewed during our consultation call. Payment is due at the time of each session.

insurance
I am not in-network with insurance companies. Many clients, however, are able to use out-of-network benefits. I encourage you to use the link below to quickly check your benefits. If you do have out-of-network benefits, I can provide a monthly superbill you may submit for reimbursement. Eligibility and reimbursement rates vary by plan.
