Rates, Insurance, and Frequently Asked Questions
Sessions
Sessions are 50-55 minutes in length and are held via a secure, confidential video platform. You must be in California for each of our appointments. If you’re attending therapy for the first time or would just like more info, I’m happy to discuss what sessions would generally look like if we work together.
Fees & Insurance
I provide an initial 15-minute phone consultation at no cost. My standard out-of-pocket rate for a 50-55 minute session is $185, and I’m an out-of-network insurance provider.
I am happy to provide you with a Superbill that you can submit to your insurance to reimburse you for some or all of the cost of your therapy sessions. Many PPO plans provide out-of-network (OON) coverage, which can result in them reimbursing you for typically 20-80% of your therapy bill. You can check your Summary of Benefits and/or call your insurance customer service number to ask if you have OON benefits and how you submit OON claims to them.
You can always request a Good Faith Estimate.
Can I see you if I’m not pregnant, postpartum or experiencing a pregnancy loss?
Yes! I work with adults (18+) for non-perinatal related things - primarily anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, life transitions, and stress management. I’m happy to chat further to see if we’re a good fit.
What is EMDR?
EMDR is a structured, somatic-based therapy that is used to address traumatic or highly stressful experiences in our lives (here is some info on “Big T” and “Little t” trauma). It looks and feels different from traditional talk therapy. I encourage you to read more about EMDR here, and I’m happy to answer any questions about how we might incorporate EMDR into our work together.
Can I bring my kids to session?
Yes, newborns and infants are welcome in session! Let’s chat about toddlers and bigger kids attending sessions - they can sometimes be bigger distractions or it might not be appropriate for them to hear the content of the session, but I don’t want childcare to be a barrier to you attending therapy. I’m happy to help figure out what will work best.
