"Embrace the courage to explore new ideas; it's through curiosity and boldness that we discover our greatest potential and possibilities."
1. WHAT ARE YOUR FEES?
My rate for a standard 50-minute session is $300. This applies to both individual and couples sessions. I do not increase my rates for ancillary series such as EMDR and KAP.
2. DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?
No. I am not an in-network provider with any insurance company. However, if you have a PPO policy there is a strong chance you can utilize your "out of network" benefits to receive a significant reimbursement. I will provide you with a receipt, known as a "superbill", that you can submit to your insurance provider following your sessions.
3. HOW DOES THEREAPY WORK? HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
First, we'll start with what you're dealing with now. What symptoms you're struggling with, and what pain you're eperiencing. My goal is to help you find relief. As the conversation progresses we will organically find additional areas that need exploration. For some this may take a few months, and for others it may take a few years. My goal is to ensure that these changes are not a one-time thing or simply a "quick fix". We want to take the time to ensure pivitol life changes stick. We will leave no stone unturned so you leave therapy feeling fully confident moving forward in your life.
4. WHAT IF I NEED OTHER RESOURCES?
My goal is to support you in all areas of healing and wellbeing. I have a strong network of clinicians I trust that I often refer clients to for services such as medical care, psychiatry, massage, chiropractic, physical therapy, acupuncture, and other important treatments. I love collaborating with other clinicians to ensure we can deliver the best care possible.
5. HOW FREQUENTLY WILL I ATTEND THERAPY?
As a general rule, you should plan to attend therapy weekly. Oftentimes clients will come in twice a week - particularly when doing trauma therapy. Occasionally some folks will choose to meet every other week. Most importantly, we will carefully track your progress to determine which session cadence is best for you.
6. WHERE WILL WE MEET?
I see clients in person at my West Hollywood office. If you are located outside Los Angeles, we will meet remotely using a HIPPA-compliant video platform. I am a licensed Telehealth provider throughout both California and Florida.
7. WHAT THERAPEUTIC MODALITIES WILL WE USE?
I primarily use psychodynamic, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), DBT (dialectal behavioral therapy), IFS (internal family systems), attachment-theory & mindfulness therapies.
You don't have to do this alone.
Choosing a therapist is a very personal task. We can start with a 15 minute consultation call. These calls are free of charge and will hopefully provide us an opportunity to get to know one another. I can give you a sense of how I work, but more importantly, you can see if I’m the right fit for you. Then we can craft a strategic plan to help you achieve your goals.
