How much does therapy cost?

I offer competitive rates and am happy to discuss how to make this work for you. Payment is due at the time of service. I accept cash, check, credit cards, HSA and HRA cards. 

Will therapy be covered by my insurance?

I am an Out of Network (OON) provider for most other insurance companies. By contacting your insurance company, you can better understand what your behavioral health benefits will cover. You may also be able to use a Health Reimbursement Account for services. 
I supervise associate therapists that accept Partnership Health Plan/ MediCal.

What if I'm not sure if therapy is for me?

I recommend speaking to our Care Coordinator. She can talk to you about why you're interested in therapy and how therapy may be of use. You can reach us at (707) 483-9061. 

How long are sessions?

The typical appointment length is 50 minutes. 

How long will my child be in therapy?

I recognize that this is an important question for families. I will be able to give you a better idea after we discuss the specifics of what brings your child to therapy. We will also meet on a regular basis so that you will know my plan for your child's time in therapy. The average length of therapy is between 4 and 6 months.
