There are a few things you should know about how to get started in individual therapy or couples therapy, whether in-person or online, in San Francisco or across the State of California.

Initial Phone Consultation
I offer an initial 20-minute phone consultation free of charge. You can book an initial phone call below.
In this initial conversation, we will talk briefly about your needs and whether I might be able to help. If so, we can go ahead and schedule an initial session.
Fees
As well as other things, we will discuss the fee in our initial call. My current fees are as follows.
For individual therapy, sessions typically last for 50 minutes. I charge $240 for each session, or prorate the sessions if a longer session time is desired and agreed upon in advance.
For couples therapy I charge $320 for one hour, $640 for a 2 hour sessions, or prorated.
I accept personal checks and several forms of electronic payment including zelle and venmo.
Using Insurance to Help Cover Expenses
Yes, if you have a PPO, an FSA, or an HSA. I will provide you with a monthly receipt that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
Reduced Rate Therapy
I have several reduced fee slots, depending on the financial need and on the type of service offered. Please inquire for availability.
