“You will never know what you are capable of doing until you attempt something you never thought you could do.”
Length of Sessions
Psychotherapy sessions are 50-60 minutes in length, and typically take place once a week. However, the frequency of sessions may vary depending upon your treatment needs.
Fees/Payment
I believe that finding a therapist who is perfect for you is crucial to having a positive experience in treatment and achieving the changes you are seeking. I encourage you to “shop” for the therapist who is the best fit for you emotionally to treat your concerns and whose approach to treatment is compatible with what you have in mind to change. If you don’t believe I am the right therapist for you, I encourage you to explore other therapists at the following websites: Psychologytoday.com, Goodtherapy.org, Networktherapy.com, or Findatherapist. I accept payment in the form of cash, check, Visa, and MasterCard, and payment is due at the time of service.
I accept insurance if your insurance plan includes “out of network” coverage. Also, for some select plans I am an “in network provider.” Please fax me a copy of your insurance card to (714) 485-2316 so I may find out your deductible information, the allowed amount as determined by your plan, and co-pay information before you come to your first session. This benefit can help reduce the cost of therapy by covering part of the payment, which is usually 50%-80% of your therapy fee after a deductible requirement has been met.
Initial Intake Forms
Both state law and fair ethical practices require therapists to establish certain contracts between themselves and their clients, so as to provide you the best treatment possible. It is also important that I gather information regarding your history as well as your current concerns. To accomplish this I use Client Forms you can download, fill out, and bring to your first session. I will go over them with you at that time.
