Frequently Asked Questions

Therapy Process

  • Yes! I offer online sessions to client’s living in the state of California, and in-person sessions out of my Santa Monica office.

  • At this time, I do not work weekends. However, I do offer late evening sessions to accommodate busy work and school schedules.

  • Sessions are scheduled for 50 minutes. If you are looking to do a more intensive Brainspotting or IFS session, I offer 90-120 minute sessions on an as requested basis.

  • This really varies person-to-person! However, I typically recommend starting at one session per week.

Payments

  • My rate is $250 / 50 minute session.

  • Yes! I know therapy can be a really big investment so I strive to make it attainable for those that can’t meet my standard rate. My sliding scale ranges from $185-250 and is provided on an as-need basis.

  • I am considered an “out of network” provider and do not work directly with insurance companies. However, I can provide monthly invoices, called Superbills, that can be submitted to insurance companies for reimbursement. Depending on your plan, you may be able to get reimbursed for a portion of each session after you meet your deductible. If this interests you, here are some questions I recommend you ask your insurance provider directly:

    1. Does my policy cover out-of-network mental health providers?

    2. What is my deductible and has it been met yet?

    3. What percentage of my bill will be covered for services obtained by an out-of-network provider?

  • All calls and correspondence that are 20 minutes or less are completely complimentary. This includes calls to your child’s school counselor, psychiatrist, etc. All correspondence longer than 20 minutes is billed at my standard session rate and prorated in 15-minute increments.
