FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • HOW WILL I KNOW WE'RE THE RIGHT FIT?

    During our first appointment, you and I will have the opportunity to meet and get to know each other. I welcome any questions, hopes, and apprehensions you may have and seek to understand what you are looking to get out of therapy. I will also ask you some background questions to better understand the challenges you are facing and your reasons for seeking therapy. My hope is that in this process, you and I can both determine if my services can benefit your needs.

  • HOW DO YOU DETERMINE FEES?

    My fees are set to the industry standard based on my training and geographic location. I reserve a limited number of spaces for sliding scale clients based on financial need. Contact me for current availability.

  • WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM A TYPICAL SESSION?

    Sessions are typically 50 minutes long offered on a weekly basis. I sometimes offer longer sessions on a case-by-case basis, or higher/lower frequency of sessions per week, and will work with you to determine this need.

  • DO YOU ACCEPT INSURANCE?

    I do not accept insurance. However, I am happy to provide you with a statement if your insurance provider allows you to choose an out-of-network provider. Please check with your provider about coverage, your deductible, and rates of reimbursement. If you are planning to pay for services yourself and would like a Good Faith Estimate, please let me know.

  • CAN I WORK WITH YOU IF I DON’T LIVE IN THE BAY AREA?

    Absolutely. One of the benefits of tele-health is that I get to work with residents across the state of California.

  • ARE YOU SEEING PEOPLE IN PERSON?

    Yes! I currently offer both in-person and virtual sessions. Please reach out for availability.
