Types of Therapy Sessions

In Person and by Telephone:

Most sessions are in person at my Berkeley, CA therapy office. However, if it is inconvenient for you to come in person, we can have sessions regularly by telephone. Also, if you normally come in person, there may be times you may choose to do a particular session by phone.

Length of each Session and Number of Sessions:

Each session lasts 50 minutes.

Sessions are arranged from one to four sessions per week. This can change by mutual decision from time to time as you feel the need.

Double sessions are also available.

I deeply respect each person's individual needs and wishes as we structure our time for our work together.

Private Pay or Insurance:

Most of my clients pay privately. I do take some insurance. If your insurance company allows you to select the therapist of your choice and does not restrict you to select a therapist only on their insurance panel, then I can usually take your insurance. To make sure, call your insurance company and ask them if your plan allows you to do this.

***********

I specialize in a variety of therapies for different issues, including relationships, dissociative problems, anxiety, anger, and depression. Please view my list of psychotherapy specialties to form a more complete picture of my skills. If you don't find your particular problem on my list, contact me and I will be glad to tell you if I work in that area.
