Frequently Asked Questions

What is your fee?

My full fee is $225/hour. However, I have a need-based sliding scale.

How do you structure your initial sessions?

During the first session/consultation, we discuss the fee and other legal issues such as confidentiality. But most importantly, it’s an opportunity for me to get a basic idea of what’s bringing you in, and for you to get a sense of how we would work together.

How do you structure your sessions?

My sessions are 50 minutes long and are by appointment only. I see clients once a week at a regular time (though I also see some clients more than once a week). During the session we’ll work together to gain insight, make interpretations and make changes based on the material you bring in.

Do you accept insurance?

I am currently in-network for and accepting Health Net/MHN and Beacon/LA Care insurance. I can also provide you with a receipt that allows your insurance company to reimburse you if you have a PPO plan for another insurance company.

How do you accept payment?

Cash, check, or Venmo

What hours/times are you available?

I am currently in the office Tuesday, Thursday and Friday through 7:00 PM.

How long does therapy take?

In order to get to the root of a problem that is significant enough to bring you in to therapy, it takes time – probably a number of months. However, many people start to experience significant relief after just a few sessions.

Do you offer bilingual services?

Yes, I am fully bilingual in English and Spanish. Yo soy bilingue en inglés y español.
