Rates & Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely! If you have out-of-network insurance benefits that you will be using, you will be responsible for paying session fees at the time of the appointment.

On a monthly basis, I will provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

If you have out-of-network benefits, your insurance company will typically reimburse you for 60-80% of the cost of each session.

I encourage you to confirm the exact reimbursement amount with your insurance provider directly. Typically, your insurance card should have a customer service number where you can reach them.

You can ask your insurance company the following questions:

• Do I have out-of-network outpatient mental health coverage? If so, I able to use these benefits for telehealth?

• Do I have an out-of-network deductible?

• Do I need a referral from an in-network provider to see someone out-of-network?

• What percentage of outpatient therapy sessions are covered?

• How much will I be reimbursed for a 45 minute psychotherapy session (CPT code: 90834)?

• What is the process I need to go through to file a claim for reimbursement?

I do not currently have any open sliding scale spots at this time. But please reach out to me, I’d be happy to provide you with a trusted referral in my network.

You can easily find in-network providers by visiting www.psychologytoday.com and filtering for your insurance company.

Currently, I am only licensed in the state of California and am only able to see clients who are located within the state of CA.

Before beginning sessions together, we can do a free 15-minute intro call to see if we might work well together. Typically on the intro call, we may discuss the following:

• Why you’re seeking therapy at this time

• I’ll tell you a bit about myself and what working with me may look like

• We’ll talk about rates, insurance, availability, and discuss how to move forward with scheduling appointments if we are a good fit

I meet with most of my clients on a weekly basis. I’ve noticed that it can be easier to meet your therapy goals when meeting weekly compared to on a biweekly or monthly schedule.

I like to ask that all new clients commit to meeting weekly, for at least the first 4 weeks. This will allow us to identify what you want to work on and get started on making progress toward your therapy goals.

After the first 4 weeks, we can re-evaluate the appropriate frequency of sessions to best meet your needs and where you’re at in your healing journey.
