FAQ’s and Fees

  • You can book a consult on my calendly link on my contact me page. This is the easiest way to find a time that works for both of us. If you prefer to send an email, you can call fill out the consultation form

  • While talk therapy often focuses on exploring thoughts, feelings, and patterns through conversation, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) uses bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, sounds, or tapping) to help the brain process and integrate distressing memories.

    Many clients find this approach helps reduce the emotional charge of difficult experiences more directly and efficiently than talk therapy alone.

  • While EMDR is widely used for trauma, it’s also effective for anxiety, phobias, depression, perfectionism in different aspects of life, postpartum challenges, and feeling stuck. EMDR can help reduce the emotional charge around painful memories and patterns that keep showing up in daily life. Many clients find EMDR helpful when traditional talk therapy hasn’t moved them forward in the way they hoped.

  • I am an out of network provider. I have partnered with Thrizer to make it easier for clients to use their out-of-network benefits and get reimbursed for therapy sessions.

    Thrizer is helpful if you:

    • Have out-of-network coverage through your insurance

    • Find insurance forms or superbills confusing

    • Have submitted claims before but didn’t receive reimbursement

    • Prefer to avoid the hassle of managing the process yourself

    Since my practice is out-of-network, session fees are paid at the time of your appointment. If your plan includes out-of-network benefits, Thrizer can submit claims on your behalf, making it simpler for you to receive reimbursement directly from your insurance provider. During our consult call, I can give you an estimate of your out of pocket cost through Thrizer based on your out of network coverage.

  • Fee for 50 minute sessions: $240

    Fee for 90 minute (extended) EMDR sessions: $375

    Extended EMDR sessions are available for clients who want more time in session and are seeking accelerated processing and relief.

  • I am located in Irvine, California. I offer in person sessions in Irvine as well as telehealth sessions across California.

  • Sessions occur weekly at a consistent time , where a spot will be reserved for you. Therapy is most effective when you are committed and able to show up consistently.

  • I have a 48 hour cancellation policy. If an appointment is missed or cancelled with less than 48 hours notice, you will be responsible for the full session fee.
