Rates & Insurance
Insurance
I do not accept insurance at this time. My clients pay for their services directly at the time of service. This enables me to provide high quality services in the manner and duration that we find appropriate without requiring the client to be “diagnosed” with a mental health disorder. If requested, I can provide a superbill of services provided with diagnosis that can be submitted to your insurance company if you receive out of network (OON) coverage on your policy. If you are interested in fee reimbursement, please check your mental health benefits and ask about out of network coverage before beginning treatment.
Rates
I currently provide services via telehealth and/or in-person. Treatment is unique and tailored to the individual needs and identified goals. Therapy can be short-term, focusing on specific issues, or longer-term, addressing more complex goals or ongoing personal growth.

On-site initial intake assessment is $400, 80 minutes (Initial biopsychosocial assessment includes clinical interview & treatment planning)
Please inquire for more information!
Accepted Payments
I accept online payments through my secure client portal and accept all major credit and debit cards, including FSA and HSA cards. Cash is accepted for in person therapy only as payment is due at the time of service.
Cancellations
If you do not show up for your scheduled therapy appointment, and do not provide at least 24 hours notice of cancellation, you will be required to pay the full cost of the session. Despite this policy, I do allow all clients one free pass as I understand that life happens! If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, please call or text (805) 665-8052. Thank you for providing as much notice as possible and respecting the time I have set aside just for you.
Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
