Frequently Asked Questions

  • $390 for 45 minute individual therapy

    $520 for 60 minute individual therapy (most clients do fine with 45 minute sessions, but if we find that our sessions often go over, we may mutually agree to try 60 minute sessions.)

  • I am licensed in California (soon-to-be Oregon) and offer virtual appointments so you can comfortably join session from wherever is most convenient for you.

  • I am an out-of-network provider with all insurance companies. What this means is I do not bill any insurance companies directly. If you are able to afford the weekly sessions upfront but would like to seek reimbursement from your insurance company as a bonus, I’m happy to provide a superbill which you can submit to your insurance.

    Typically, if you have a PPO plan, you can expect some reimbursement from your insurance, but you would be responsible for contacting them to confirm you have those benefits. You are, also, responsible for submitting your superbills to them.

    I’m happy to answer any other questions around this during a consultation. Please note that seeking reimbursement should be a perk, not a necessity to work with me; I’d much rather make a referral to other resources than know you’re struggling to afford therapy.

    Additionally, You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. You can ask for this before scheduling a service.

    Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance, or who are not using insurance, an estimate of the expected charges for medical service, including psychotherapy services. Since my services are private pay, you will be provided with a Good Faith Estimate at least 1 day before service or at your request.

    For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.

  • Some helpful questions to ask would be:

    • Do I have out-of-network benefits for mental health services?

    • How much will you reimburse for each session I attend and pay for?

    • Do I have an out-of-network deductible? How much of it has been met already?

    • Check reimbursement for CPT codes 90791, 90834, 90837

  • There are so many other options for you, and I want you to know what they are while you have the momentum. I wrote an eguide detailing all of your options for therapy and how you can make it work for your unique situation. Grab it here!

  • I accept card payments via HIPAA secure Simple Practice payment system. HSA and FSA are accepted, as well.

  • I meet with new clients weekly for 45 or 75 minutes. This frequency allows me to get to know you and what you’re up against so we can begin to make progress toward your goals. How long you’re in therapy is based on a few factors, but typically we will both intuitively know when you’re ready to graduate! You are more than welcome to come back for a “tune-up session” after graduation, if needed.

  • Schedule a 15-minute consultation with me. I’ll give you a call and ask a few questions to learn more about you and what you’ve been experiencing lately. (Hint: You know the answers already.)

    If we both decide we’re a good fit, we’ll book your first appointment! Yay!

    If we’re not, I’ll share some referrals or ideas of where you can look next to make your search easier.

  • Yes! You’re only going to get the most out of therapy if you work with a therapist that works for you, which is why I have created a detailed eguide for this very thing. Click here to snag it!
