Convenient,

I offer evening and weekend appointment times to accommodate the busy schedules of working professionals and their families. I am able to work with you or your family in-person at my office in downtown LA or by secure video call anywhere within California. My confidential, secure client portal takes the guesswork out of scheduling. It provides easy reminders for you, keeps the time in both of our calendars, and provides a streamlined, confidential means of communication. Finally, as a new provider in the area there is currently little to no wait for my services.

Lasting Change

My current rates for therapy are: $250 per 50-minute individual, couples, family, or Assessment session (cash, check, or credit card). I assess this same hourly fee for assessment and report-writing services. I do reserve a number of appointments for persons to see me on a sliding scale fee based on demonstrated need, and submit claims to all insurance plans as an Out-of-Network provider. Please keep in mind that some HMO plans offer no Out-of-Network benefits (meaning you are responsible for the full fee), and even those plans with Out-Of-Network benefits rarely reimburse a psychologist’s full rate. See our FAQ for more information about this.

While my rates are comparable to other doctoral-level psychologists in the area and consistent with the expense of doing business in DTLA, I recognize this is still a significant expense for families. As such I strongly emphasize time-limited approaches given compelling evidence that long-term, unrestricted treatment is associated with slower rates of improvement. I am not interested in keeping you or your loved one in therapy any longer than is beneficial, and I will be in frequent discussion with you about the direction of our work together and you or your family’s progress. Most courses of treatment I provide last 8-12 sessions for individual adults and teens and 12-16 sessions for couples and families. Some concerns do require longer treatment, however, as in the case of complex trauma.

If you are interested in working with us, please don’t hesitate to contact us to setup an initial appointment or schedule a free, no pressure consultation. We look forward to learning how I can help you best.
