Approach

Therapy with me is a process of exploration. Our work together will help you develop a sense of joy. Joy doesn't necessarily mean being "happy" all the time; it means finding a sense of peace and presence through both the good and the bad— learning to navigate the storms and rough tidal waves of life with a deeper understanding of yourself and tools to ride out those waves.

I tailor therapy to fit your specific needs. I also provide resources, exercises, and reflection prompts for you to do in between sessions, to enhance your growth in an engaging and collaborative way. I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral and holistic approaches, pulling the most from:  

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

  • Compassion-Focused Therapy

Mind-body connection are at the core of holistic healing; I teach all clients about how to practice mindfulness and integrate practices into sessions so that you can experience first-hand the embodied feelings of presence, acceptance, compassion, and gratitude and learn how to cultivate these aspects on your own.

My main goal is to empower you, to feel more equipped to manage the lows, and enhance the highs, of life.

Fees & Insurance

I am in-network with United Health Care and Oxford plans and can accept clients who are in California or New York . Co-payment and benefits vary and can be confirmed prior to beginning therapy.

Out of pocket rates are $200 for 45 minute session and $230 for 60 minute session. Sliding scale rates are available for those who are experiencing financial hardship or are un/under-insured.

If you are out of network, or “out of pocket”, it’s encouraged to check with your insurance company what your out of network benefits are. A superbill with the necessary paperwork for reimbursement will be provided to you monthly. Some questions to ask include:

  • What is the out of network reimbursement rate for routine behavioral health services/ mental health services/ psychotherapy?

  • What is my out of network deductible, and how much of my deductible have I already met?
