Our standard fee for a 50-minute session is $175; longer sessions are charged on a pro-rated basis. Groups and workshop fees vary and are made available with posted sign-up/registration information. Fees are payable at the time that services are rendered and we accept cash, check, and credit card. So that you and your therapist can work up until the end of your sessions together, credit cards are stored via a client portal and are billed the morning following your session; no "swiping" or payment during session is necessary. Cash and check are requested at the beginning of the session so we can work up to the end of the session without interruption.

While we are not a contracted provider with any insurance company or managed care organization, we do provide clients monthly statements of payment along with a “super bill” which you may submit to your insurance carrier/the third-party of your choice to seek reimbursement of fees already paid. Most of our clients with out of network benefits are able to obtain some form of reimbursement with our super bill, without incident. The amount of reimbursement and the amount of any co-payments or deductible depends on the requirements of your specific insurance plan. You should be aware that insurance plans generally limit coverage to certain diagnosable mental conditions (i.e. your insurance may refuse payment of your claim without a diagnosis). Current and prospective clients are responsible for verifying and understanding the limits of their insurance coverage.

To determine if you have mental health coverage, we recommend you first check with your insurance carrier. To help you navigate this process, we've outlined the following questions to ask your carrier about your coverage:

• What are my mental health benefits?

• Do I have out-of-network benefits?

• How much does my plan allow for an out-of-network provider?

• What is the "reasonable and customary"/"universal cap" per session?

• How many therapy sessions does my plan cover?

• Do I have a deductible? Have I met my deductible?

• Is approval required from my primary care physician?

I offer in-person sessions to clients located in Los Angeles and virtual therapy for California-based residents. All in-person sessions are held at my group practice, The Wellness Arts Collective, located in Glassell Park at 3519 Eagle Rock Blvd. Telehealth sessions are conducted via Simple Practice, a secure HIPPA-compliant platform.

A processed-based approach to therapy is less about providing you with all the answers and solutions, but more about creating a space for you to explore & discover the answers that are already inside of you. You are the expert of your own life and your vision, but sometimes, the path can seem cloudy and distant. My job as your therapist is to help you move past the confusion, clear the haze, and offer a space where you can actually stop, reflect and discover the you that has been there all along. Together, let’s unpack the story of who you are and where you come from, so you can shift the narrative and move forward with clarity, peace and intention.

Our sessions give you the opportunity to talk about any issue that is problematic for you. What you want to work on may change from week to week, or you may wish to delve deeply into one issue or area of your life over a long period of time. As your therapist, I will hold the space with confidentiality so that you can work at your own pace, in the direction that you want to follow.

Sure, but like with anything in our work together, you always have a choice. You can try it, hate it, love it, never do it. An example of “homework” is try creating 5 intentional minutes in the morning for yourself. What do you notice? Was it easy, challenging?

Life happens and it is also important for us to honor our time together. Barring an emergency, if an appointment is cancelled 24 hours or less, you’ll be charged for the full session fee.

Call us! Or if you’d rather shoot us an email, that's fine too. You can go to the "contact page" on this website to do either. If you have a sense that you want to move forward, let's schedule a phone consultation so that we can chat and see if we would be a good fit for one another. Following your consultation call, and if we schedule a session together, then we will send you an email with a link to set up your online client portal, which will ask for your personal, emergency contact, and billing information before your first appointment.
