FAQs

I am a private-pay, out-of-network provider. While I don't accept insurance directly, your insurance plan may have out-of-network benefits, which means that they will reimburse you for a portion of our session cost.

My standard fee is $185 for a 45-50 min session. Payment is due after each session, and I accept debit, all major credit cards as well as FSA/HSA cards. I ask all clients to keep a card on file to simplify the billing process.

Each session is 50 minutes. To get the most benefit, I require weekly sessions at the start of therapy. This consistent schedule helps build momentum, establish trust, and make meaningful progress toward your goals. Over time, we can discuss adjusting the frequency based on your needs.

The overall length of therapy varies for each person—some clients see progress sooner, while others benefit from longer-term work. We’ll work together to create a pace and plan that feels right for you.

During your first session, we’ll focus on getting to know each other and understanding your reasons for seeking therapy. You can expect a safe, supportive space. I’ll ask questions about your background, current challenges, and goals so we can create a plan tailored to your needs. This session is also a chance for you to ask questions about how I work, the therapy process, and what you can expect going forward.

If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, please let me know at least 48 hours in advance. Cancellations with less than 48 hours’ notice, or missed sessions, are charged at the full session rate, as your appointment time is reserved for you. I understand that life happens, and I’m happy to work with you if unexpected situations arise.

I offer online and in-person sessions in Orange County, CA. For additional information regarding in-person sessions, please fill out the consultation form.
