Individual Therapy: $230 per 50-minute session
Therapy is an investment in yourself. I don’t take insurance because this work goes deeper than what insurance usually covers. Instead of quick fixes or symptom management, we focus on the root of why you feel stuck — so change actually lasts -
I am considered an out-of-network provider. I can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement. I also accept FSA and HSA cards.
-
I take credit cards through Ivy Pay, which are securely charged at the end of every session. I’ll walk you through the setup during our first meeting.
What You Can Expect from Therapy
-
Patterns that took decades to form won’t disappear overnight. Some clients feel relief quickly, while deeper change takes time. Together, we’ll find the rhythm that works best for you.
-
I require weekly sessions. Weekly therapy allows us to do the deep, focused work that creates lasting change. It helps me get to know you better, and it gives you the consistency needed to build momentum. Research also shows that weekly therapy leads to the best outcomes.
It’s normal to think you can save money by coming less often or to feel unsure about the investment. But real progress happens when we meet weekly. This rhythm gives you the structure and support needed to break patterns, practice new skills, and get results that stick. -
I offer both! You can meet with me in-person at my Fremont office, or online if you live anywhere in California. Learn more about Fremont therapy here and online therapy here.
-
You can get started by scheduling a free, no-pressure 15-minute consultation. This is a chance for us to connect, talk through what you’re looking for, and see if we’re a good fit.
-
No, I do not work with children or teens. If you’re looking for a therapist for your child or teen, feel free to reach out and I can provide referrals to trusted providers who specialize in that work.
Cancellation Policy/ Rescheduling Policy
Cancelations or reschedules must be made 48 hours ahead of the appointment. If a cancellation/ reschedule occurs ahead of 48 hours, you are free to reschedule if you would like.
Sessions that are canceled or rescheduled less than 48 hours prior to the session will be charged at the full fee. Sessions that start late are also charged at the full 50 minute fee.
Deposits made during the consultation to reserve your first session are not refundable.
Emergency Cancellations
I understand that life happens and emergencies occur. If those occur you are free to reschedule with me on the same week given my availability. Late cancellations that occur because of non-emergency reasons cannot be rescheduled and client will be charged the full fee.
The definition of what qualifies as an emergency is at my discretion. Most common instances are vehicle accidents, death or hospitalization of loved ones, or illness qualify as an emergency. Common issues such as work obligations, family needs, forgetfulness, or general busyness do not qualify.
Please contact me if you need to cancel your session or have any questions.
