Services

SESSION INFORMATION:
Each session is 50 minutes long. Before your initial appointment, you are invited to the client portal to complete your intake documents, provide your demographic information, and fill out our intake questionnaire. I provide sessions in person or via telehealth (video/phone) according to the payment arrangement and in consideration of your needs (i.e. transportation, distance, medical issues etc,). Video sessions are available when your insurance allows.

FEES:
My fee is $130 for an individual session and $150 for couples. I do offer some sliding scale appointments for clients with special financial needs that is based on availability. Please contact me if you have any questions about fees. I accept cash, check, and credit cards for payment.

INSURANCE:
I accept Medi-Cal, Health Plan of San Joaquin, Health Net, and Blue Shield. If you have a PPO Plan, I may be able to assist you in getting reimbursed for a portion of your out-of-pocket costs.

If you have a health savings account (HSA) or a flexible spending account (FSA), you can use those funds to pay for therapy as it is a qualified medical expense.
