GETTING STARTED
Send me a message from the Contact page. If I have spots available that may suit your needs and schedule, we will schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation. During the conversation, we will discuss what you would like to work on, and determine if we are a good fit. If we both decide to proceed, we will schedule an initial session and determine an ongoing meeting time. Before the appointment, I will send you an invitation to Simple Practice to complete and sign the electronic intake documents, and a quickbill from Affinipay.

INSURANCE
I am able to directly bill Kaiser insurance as a direct referral through the Kaiser Gender Health Program.
I am not currently paneled with any insurance companies, however I am able to provide you with an invoice (superbill) to send into your insurance company for out-of-network reimbursement. I suggest that you call your insurance carrier to verify out-of-network coverage.
You will need to ask your insurance provider the following:

You will need to ask your insurance provider the following:
- Does my plan cover out-of-network providers?
- What is my out of network deductible and have I met it yet this year?
- Will you cover services by an LMFT?
- What is the out-of-network reimbursement rate for billing 90837 or 90834?
DURATION AND FREQUENCY OF THERAPY
Unless there is prior arrangement, all client sessions will take place weekly or biweekly at a consistent day and time. All of these decisions will be made together during session as a part of treatment.
The length of our time working together depends on many factors: Your goals for treatment, other factors in your life that may impact our work, possible new areas for growth that you may discover as we work together, etc. I have worked with clients for as little as a few months, to as long as several years. We will check in throughout our time working together to assess progress made and discuss when ending therapy is beneficial to you.

CANCELLATION POLICY
Any cancellations need to be communicated to me by email, phone, or text at least 48 business hours before the appointment time. (Office days are Monday-Thursday). Any cancellations that occur in less than 48 hours hours will either be rescheduled (pending availability) or you will be charged the full session fee. That said, I understand that emergencies and illness happen. To accommodate an unexpected need to cancel, I offer one free late cancel per client, per calendar year.
