Frequently Asked Questions
-
I provide both individual and group therapy. My focus as a therapist tends to center on supporting people with trauma, grief, difficulties with connection, and suicidal thoughts.
-
Simply send me a message, and we’ll schedule a (free) 30-minute consultation! We’ll talk about what you’re looking for in therapy and how working together might be helpful. We can also discuss any questions or concerns you have.
-
I share an office at 947 N. La Cienega Blvd in Los Angeles, at the edge of West Hollywood.
There are metered and unmetered parking spots available nearby. The office is also accessible via public transportation.
-
I’m not currently in-network with any insurance plans. However, I frequently work with people who receive partial reimbursement of their therapy costs from their insurance. That reimbursement can be a high or low, depending on your plan. I have a billing system that makes receiving reimbursement easier, without additional paperwork on your part. If you have any questions, let me know!
Note: I’m in the process of credentialing with a few insurers, and I’ll update my website when I become in-network with any insurance plans.
-
My fee for a 55-minute session is $200.
Group therapy sessions range from $60-75 for each 90-minute session.
We can schedule a free 30-minute consultation to talk more about whether therapy together would be a good fit for you. I can also answer any other questions you may have.
-
I reserve a few spots in my calendar for reduced-fee or “sliding scale” appointments. If you’re interested in therapy together but worried about the cost, please let me know!
If my reduced-fee spots are full, Open Path is a good resource to find therapists that have sliding-scale openings.
-
Both! I’m happy to accommodate whatever works best for you.
-
I typically meet with people on a weekly basis. This regularity facilitates a stronger therapeutic relationship and a more effective rhythm for addressing people’s concerns. After I’ve been working with someone for a time, and their main concerns have diminished or become more manageable, I’m happy to meet less frequently.
-
People describe me as warm, inviting, attentive, and curious. I try to be a human being in the room with you. While I am professional and take the work of therapy seriously, I don’t pretend that I’m not also a person in the world. I’m not afraid to laugh or share my reactions, and I’m always open to questions you may have about the process of therapy. If we do a consult together, you’ll immediately get a sense of how I would be if we were working together.
