FAQ

Why online therapy?

In recent years, online therapy has taken off. It is a great way to provide therapy that is accessible, convenient, and affordable. I am able to provide online therapy sessions to anyone residing in California and Arizona.

How much is a session?

Each session is 50 minutes and is $99. Again, therapy should be affordable and accessible for all. Most therapists charge rates of $150 and upwards for each session. With the reduction in overhead costs, I pass those savings onto you.

Do you take insurance?

No, I currently do not accept Anthem insurance or United Health Care insurance.

Do you have a sliding scale?

Yes. In keeping with the spirit of affordable therapy, I offer reduced rates and a sliding scale to:

  • MFT students needing personal psychotherapy hours
  • Students
  • Clients with financial difficulties
