What can I expect in session?

Sessions are individualized around your personal journey, and I take an approach that is attuned to your present needs.

What therapy is best for me?

Recent studies have shown therapy to be the most effective when the process is collaborative, but centered on you and your goals. Even though traditional talk therapy isn’t always seen as a goal-oriented process, it can be beneficial to explore where you'd like to be in the future as part of the healing process. Openness about what you experience during sessions is encouraged. My approach to therapy allows for flexibility and to adjust around your present concerns.

EMDR typically involves 6–18 sessions and follows a structured process. If you're more focused on what's going on in the present, talk therapy might be a better fit. For creative concerns or big-picture questions, we might draw from a mix of approaches to support deeper, more intentional exploration. The best kind of therapy for you really depends on what you’re hoping to work on and how you’d like to grow—something we can explore together.

How does therapy work?

Therapy is a space for honest exploration—of how you’re feeling in the present moment, how you relate to others, and what might be going on beneath the surface. It offers support, but also gently brings attention to parts of yourself that may have been unspoken or oppressed. Over time, therapy can help create more connection between your thoughts, feelings, and somatic experiences. It’s a process that can be deeply transformative as you begin to integrate all parts of your lived experience.

How long are sessions?

Individual sessions are 50 minutes long, with couples and family sessions at 80 minutes.

Where do sessions take place?

I offer online sessions, as well as in-person sessions at my Culver City and Mid City offices with limited availability. Please contact me for any questions around scheduling and locations.

How much do sessions cost?

My rate is $175 for individual sessions, and $225 for couples and families. I offer a sliding scale at request, and limited amount of low-fee slots for those in need.

What is my Good Faith Estimate?

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much you 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.
