GETTING STARTED

Where Should We Begin?

I am happy to arrange a consultation over the phone or by Zoom and, if we agree, an initial appointment — for which I will only charge if we agree to work together. During that first appointment, we will do our best to decide whether we're the right fit. Therapist shopping is a process and you have the right to get to know me and my style before committing to anything.

​

If we enter into a working relationship, we'll find a time to meet at least once per week and we will agree upon a fee.

​

Although I am not enrolled in any insurance panels, some insurance plans will reimburse a portion of the cost for out-of-network outpatient mental-health-care providers. I am happy to provide monthly invoices in a "superbill" format for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

​

Finally, if we enter into a working relationship, you have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your mental-health care will cost.

​

I am seeing patients in person in my office in the mid-Wilshire district of Los Angeles.
