How much will it cost?

A 20 minute initial consult is free. Sessions are 50 minutes, and are $175 per session. I am willing to discuss sliding scale pricing for those whose financial situations makes this price less tenable.

See this page for more detail on the costs and investment.

What commitment is required?

New clients should expect to see me weekly and that this work will take at least several months to begin to see therapeutic change.

See this page for more details on the process and what to expect.

Do you take insurance?

Yes. I take Aetna and various insurances who are partners with Optum. See this page for a full list of Optum partners. For other insurances, a portion of my fee may be covered by out of network benefits – please reach out to your insurance carrier to inquire about your out-of-network mental health benefits.

Further details surrounding fees and insurance can be found on this page.

Where will we meet

I see folks out of my office in Pasadena (near Colorado and Sierra Madre Blvds), as well as virtually. Scheduling availability and your preference will dictate whether we do in-person or virtual.
