Fees and Insurance

Psychotherapy Fee
My fee per 55-minute session is $190.

Forms of Payment Accepted 
My preferred form of payment is Zelle.
I also accept Venmo, and check/cash for clients seeing me in person.


Some notes about Zelle's features:
If your bank doesn't use Zelle, you can download the Zelle app and link your bank account that way.
Zelle offers a handy auto-payment feature for recurrent payments.

​Zelle & Venmo both allow you to link a credit card (a fee may apply). You can avoid fees by paying with a linked bank account instead.

Hypnosis, Smoking Cessation, and Brainspotting fees
Please inquire about my current fees for these specialized services.
​
Insurance Plans Accepted
I am currently only in-network for Partnership Health Plan, aka Carelon (Medi-Cal).

What if I don't accept your insurance?
If you plan offers out-of-network benefits, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement for your sessions from your health insurance company. In some cases, this will significantly reduce your out of pocket expenses. 

If you want to
anticipate your cost for out-of-network sessions prior to starting therapy, you can download this form to guide you step-by-step in collecting the needed information from your insurance. Or, I can have my medical biller call your insurance to collect the information on your behalf.
