SCHEDULE A SESSION 

(Choose initial consult, Family/Couples Therapy, or 45 or 60 Minute Psychotherapy services to get started)

Free phone consultations are less than 15 minutes (and can also be completed via text or email at your discretion). Individual, family, and parent coaching sessions are typically 50-55 minutes.

We can meet once or twice, or weekly for 12 weeks, or weekly and then biweekly for several months depending on the nature of the reason you request counseling. 

All of this is voluntary and I support you in making sure session length and number meet your unique needs. 

Therapy with me includes you sharing your experiences, me listening and helping you build insight into your humanity and existing superhero strengths, and then discussing and practicing skills that you can try in your real life. You let me know what works and what does not, I'll keep offering ideas and support. I often use sincere acceptance, silly or goofy humor, and personalized encouragement.

CA PRIVATE PAY CLIENTS: GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE NOTICE OF RIGHTS

Effective Jan. 2022, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 916-678-1238
