Frequently Asked Questions

How much does therapy cost?

Individual sessions for adults and teens are $250. Couples sessions are $275–$350, depending on session length.

​

Do you take insurance?

I'm an out-of-network provider. I provide a monthly superbill you can submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement if you have a PPO plan with out-of-network benefits. Many clients also use an HSA card.

​

Why don't you take insurance?

Insurance usually requires a mental health diagnosis and can limit how many sessions you get. Private pay keeps your care confidential and lets us decide together what you need.

​

Who do you work with?

Adults dealing with anxiety, ADHD, burnout, and life transitions; couples stuck in conflict or distance; and teens, with support for their parents.

​

What is your approach?

Warm, direct, and collaborative. My work draws from attachment-based therapy, Emotionally Focused (EFT-informed) work with couples, and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed parts work. Together we look at the patterns keeping you stuck, why they developed, and practice new ways of responding.

​

Do you see clients in person?

Yes, at my office at 2615 S Sepulveda Blvd, Suite 215, in Hermosa Beach. I also offer online sessions anywhere in California.

​

How do I get started?

Book a free 15-minute phone consultation. We'll talk about what's going on and whether I'm the right fit. If I'm not, I'll help you find someone who is.

​

Do you work with teens?

Yes. I see teens individually and keep parents involved in a way that protects the teen's trust.

​

I have ADHD. Will you understand what that's like?

Yes. I live with ADHD myself, so I know firsthand it isn't a willpower problem. Our work focuses on strategies that fit how your brain actually works.
