Do you see clients via telehealth?

Yes! I see clients both via telehealth and in person in Sierra Madre, California.

Do you accept insurance?

I am in network with United Behavioral Health or Optum, Aetna and Cigna Insurance Plans. I can provide a super bill if your insurance is out of network. Please verify with your individual plan regarding out of network benefits prior to the start of therapy.

What does a first session look like?

The first session is where I hope we can begin to create a relationship that feels inviting and expansive. We’ll go over important information such as confidentiality, your rights as a client, and my practice policies. If you haven’t completed intake forms beforehand, we’ll take time to review them together. Finding the right therapist is a personal process. The first session is also a chance for you to sense whether my style and approach feel right for you. If not, I fully support you in finding someone who does.

What if I’m not sure if I want to begin therapy?

I am happy to provide a free 20 minute consultation for you to discuss your goals and answer any questions you have before beginning.
