Yes, I accept the following insurances using Headway: Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield of California, Carelon Behavioral Health, Cigna, and Quest Behavioral Health.

Of course! I happily work with people of all genders, sexualities, and backgrounds.

For therapy clients, I accept debit card and credit card payments, including Flexible Spending Account (FSA) cards and Health Spending Account (HSA) cards. I use Stripe, a PCI compliant payment processing platform. Your card will be charged at the time of your appointment.

For collage and other clients, I accept debit and credit cards, cash, and mobile payments (Venmo, Zelle, etc).

As of Feb 2026, I no longer provide in-office sessions.

I provide virtual sessions to adults living anywhere in California, using Sessions Health (a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform) or phone.

I offer outdoor sessions in collaboratively decided public areas of Oakland (usually the redwoods) when weather allows.

For folks going through insurance, I require weekly sessions.

For folks paying out of pocket, I offer the options of weekly or biweekly.

I only provide individual (one-on-one) therapy, and I primarily work with adults (18+). I work with 16- and 17-year-olds on a case by case basis, when there’s a strong fit for my style and scope of practice.

I am available Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays from 9am - 6pm. I occasionally work outside of these hours - please ask!

If you need to cancel, please do so at least 2 days (48 hours) prior to our scheduled session. Any cancellations outside of this window will be charged the full fee. You will be responsible for the entire fee if cancellation is less than 2 days. This is necessary because appointments are commitments made for you and held exclusively for you. If we are able to reschedule for the same week, there will be no additional fee.

Under the No Surprises Act (effective January 1, 2022), you have the right to request and receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of how much your mental health care will reasonably cost. This is especially for clients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance to cover the charges for therapy. You can ask for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule your first session. It is not a commitment to therapy. For more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 985-3059.
