While you are responsible for paying the full cost of therapy at the time of our session, I would be happy to provide you with a Superbill to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Please check with your insurance company about what out of network coverage your policy provides.

I do not accept insurance. I am happy to provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance provider if they offer full or partial reimbursement.

For folks in the Bay Area wanting to meet in person, I offer in-person sessions on Wednesdays from my office at 3120 Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley.

I also offer online therapy for folks all over California. Online therapy is a great fit for a lot of people and is a wonderful option if you can’t make it to Berkeley (or just don’t have the time).

There is no question—online therapy is effective and can work for you! Current research largely indicates that online therapy is also as effective as in person therapy, although there is not yet much research that looks at efficacy across modalities. Online therapy and in-person therapy largely overlap in terms of how they work and what makes them effective, but there are some nuances where each has an advantage over the other.

The better question might be, is online therapy as effective for YOU personally as in-person therapy? You may find that being able to do therapy from home feels safer than in-person and unlocks new areas of work for you. Or you may find that sharing the same physical space with your therapist feels safer than an online session. Or you may find you like and get a lot out of both settings. Perhaps you like in-person a little better, but don’t wind up going to therapy as often as you would otherwise because of the logistical challenge of getting there, in which case perhaps more consistent online sessions could be more effective for you. We are all different and have different needs—the important thing is finding something that works for you.

I take concepts from a variety of different therapeutic modalities, including relational, somatic, humanistic, psychodynamic, attachment-based, and gestalt. As a trauma-informed therapist, I often offer somatic (body-based) tools to help you manage and feel big emotions as they come up, and sometimes this will also look / sound like mindfulness.

Online therapy works pretty much the same way in-person therapy does! Before a session with me, you will receive a link to a secure, HIPAA-compliant Zoom room that allows for face-to-face video interaction. Once the session begins, we spend 50-minutes together. Sometimes you will be talking, sometimes we will be checking in with our bodies, sometimes we will be learning new tools for emotional and nervous system regulation, and sometimes we will be exploring the relationship between us and how we are relating to one another.

Generally speaking, I want to attend to whatever is most present for you in any given session. That might be something entirely new or it might be picking up a thread from a previous session. It might be about something that’s going on in your life currently, something that happened a while ago, or about something that’s happening in our relationship.
