PSYCHOTHERAPY
I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families on a once, twice, or three times/week basis. I understand that starting therapy is an unusual and often difficult task. If you don’t find one through a referral from someone you trust, how does one begin to sift through the flood of options available online? There is not an easy answer, but if I can help you navigate the mess, I will. If you have any questions or concerns about beginning therapy, don’t hesitate to email or call for a preliminary conversation. I can talk to you about what you are looking for, what different therapists offer, as well as what I do.
CONSULTATION
For practicing therapists, consultation can be the difference between a treatment experience that feels dead and ineffectual to one that is alive and full of promise and interest. I have specialized expertise in existential philosophy, psychoanalysis, psychosis, psychedelics, and counter-transference issues. Consultation can be ongoing, time-limited, or even a single session depending on the issue.
SUPERVISION
I currently provide supervision through the New School for Existential Psychoanalysis, Berkeley Therapy Institute, and occasionally other clinics to both pre- and post-licensure clinicians. Supervision is available to clinicians at any stage of training either to help them accrue hours toward their license or to deepen their understanding of a particular approach to clinical work. The supervision I provide, like my other clinical work, is informed by the integration of existential philosophy and psychoanalysis.
INSURANCE
I am an in-network provider with Optum, Blue Shield of California, Cigna/Evernorth, and Aetna.
If you have coverage with one of these insurance plans, your sessions may be billed directly to your insurer according to your specific benefits.
For clients with other insurance plans, I am considered an out-of-network provider, and you may still be eligible for reimbursement depending on your policy. Please contact your insurance company to confirm your out-of-network benefits and any requirements for coverage.
FEES
$200-$300 for individual 50 minute psychotherapy sessions. I accept cash, credit card, or Venmo. I occasionally have limited availability for sliding scale patients for those who need it.
I am not currently accepting new patients.
My associates at the Free Association Clinic for existential psychotherapy and psychoanalysis do have availability. You can book through the clinic here: FreeAssociationClinic.com
