  • I do not take insurance directly (here’s why) but am happy to provide a monthly receipt if you’d like to seek reimbursement from your insurance company.

  • Most of my clients enjoy the convenience of meeting with me through teletherapy (confidential online sessions). I have limited in-person spots on Thursdays at 2831 Telegraph Ave. Oakland, CA 94609.

  • You may cancel 4 sessions annually without charge. Rescheduling will likely happen around holidays, vacations, or unexpected emergencies.

    I can be reached by phone or by e-mail. I will generally respond to you within 24 hours Monday through Friday. Messages on Friday afternoon will be responded to on Monday or the next workday. If you feel you are in crisis, please call:
