As a California licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am only able to provide therapy services to parents and children located in the state of California.

I typically provide Parent Coaching and Parent Therapy sessions online. Dyadic (child and parent together in session) Play Therapy sessions with the child must be provided are generally provided in-person. As with everything, the needs of your individual child and family will be considered in deciding what method of delivery may be most effective.

Your first session will be a 50-minute parent only session (even for child therapy services). We will review the paperwork you electronically signed and discuss my guiding principles. I’ll answer any lingering questions and orient you to the therapeutic process. We will discuss in detail your and/or your child and family’s strengths, interests, values, and challenges. We will also begin to discuss your goals and expectations.

No. Play therapy with children aged 0-5 is almost always dyadic, meaning the child and the parent participate in session together. I see you, the parent, as the agent of change. When you change the way you see your child, your child will change. By participating in dyadic play therapy sessions you will gain insight into your child’s experiences and learn new ways to support their social and emotional well being.

I am considered an Out of Network provider, and am not contracted with any insurance. Please contact your health insurance plan directly to see what mental health services they cover.

For your convenience, superbills can also be provided monthly if you choose to submit claims on your own.

If you do plan on using your insurance company for reimbursement, you may find the following 5-step guide helpful when contacting your insurance company:

1) Ask if they cover mental health services and/or coaching services.

2) Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it?

3) Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?

4) What is the coverage amount per therapy session?

5) Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?

I require you to contact me 48 hours prior to your appointment to cancel or reschedule your session. I will not call or send text reminders for appointments.

If you miss your appointment you will be required to pay the full cost of the session.

I recognize that professional psychotherapy and parent coaching are expensive investments. My fees are based on my level of experience and years toward my specialization with families with children aged 0-5.

I provide a limited number of reduced fees spots in my practice. If a reduced fee option is not available, or an acceptable fee cannot be arranged, you will be provided with resources and referrals to better support you.
