Questions I get all the time

Therapy can be beneficial for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, stress management, life transitions, trauma, and personal growth. I work with clients to identify and address challenges, build coping skills, and achieve meaningful change in their lives.

The first session is typically an introductory meeting where we discuss your goals, background, and any immediate concerns. This session helps me understand your needs and allows you to ask questions about the therapy process.

The frequency of sessions depends on your goals and personal circumstances. Many clients start with weekly sessions and adjust as they progress. During our initial consultation, I can discuss a schedule that works best for you.

I require at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations or rescheduling. If a session is missed or canceled with less than 24 hours' notice, you will be charged the full session rate, as it can be challenging to fill the time slot on short notice.

I strive to make therapy accessible and have limited sliding scale spots available based on financial need. Feel free to inquire if this may be an option for you.

Therapy is a personalized journey, and the duration varies from person to person. Some clients find they achieve their goals in a few months, while others benefit from longer-term support. Together, we can create a plan that aligns with your needs.

Yes, therapy is confidential, and I am committed to protecting your privacy. However, there are legal exceptions, such as instances where there is a risk of harm to yourself or others, which we can discuss in more detail in our first session.

Yes, I provide virtual therapy sessions for clients throughout California, allowing you to receive support and care from the comfort and privacy of your own space.

Virtual sessions are conducted via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform to ensure your privacy and safety.

It's normal to feel uncertain. Many clients feel a mix of curiosity and apprehension before starting. I am here to provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and goals at your own pace.
