Right now, I’m only offering therapy online. Sessions are held through a secure, HIPAA‑compliant video platform, and I can see anyone who is physically in California at the time of the appointment.

It depends! For the most part, therapy is not a quick fix. While you may understandably want a fast solution, many of the issues people bring to therapy are complex and long-term. It can take a while to address these issues with depth and care. How long therapy lasts will be an ongoing conversation that you and I will have throughout our time together.

For most people just starting out, meeting weekly helps build momentum, deepen our connection, and move toward your goals. After a few months, we can check in and decide together whether biweekly sessions—or a different pace—would work better.

The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other better and for you to get an opportunity to share what’s been going on for you and your hopes for therapy. I’ll also ask questions about your history and current life, so I can better understand who you are and how all of life has impacted you so far. My goal is that you leave the first session feeling seen, understood, and encouraged about the work we can do together.

Each 50-minute session is $195. Payment is due at the time of service. I accept most major credit cards.

I offer limited sliding scale spots on the basis of availability and demonstrated need. Please feel free to discuss your needs with me during our consultation.

I’m not in‑network with insurance companies at this time, which means sessions are paid out‑of‑pocket.

I am an out-of-network provider for most PPO health insurances. If your plan includes out‑of‑network benefits, you can submit something called a “superbill” (a detailed receipt) to your insurance company. If approved, they may reimburse you directly or apply the amount toward your deductible. I’m happy to provide superbills each month.

If you’re considering using your out‑of‑network benefits, I recommend calling your insurance provider first and asking: “What are my out‑of‑network benefits for mental health therapy?” That way, you’ll have a clear picture before we start.

I’m not able to provide crisis intervention outside of our sessions, but I will return non‑urgent messages within 24 business hours.

If you ever are in immediate crisis or are experiencing a life‑threatening emergency, please use one of the following resources:

- Call 988 – Suicide & Crisis Lifeline
- Text HOME to 741741 – Crisis Text Line
- Go to your nearest emergency room or call 911

If it’s not an emergency but you’d like more support, please reach out to me directly and we can schedule an extra session.
