Rates and FAQs
-
My full rate is $200 per 50 minute session. I also offer ($150 - $175) sliding scale rates.
In order to ensure that I am able to offer quality clinical services in an accessible and sustainable manner, I strive to maintain a 50/50 balance of full rate to sliding scale.
-
My consultation and training rates are shaped by financial capacity and services rendered.
Please contact me so I can learn more about you and/or your organization's needs to provide an estimated quote.

I offer Gender Affirming Care Letters of Support on a sliding scale basis ($20 - $200) with committed pro bono ($0) slots.
I require a phone or video consultation before we schedule our assessment to ensure that I can provide an effective assessment and the best match for you and your needs. If we are not the best match for whatever reason, I have a vast network of colleagues that I can refer you to.
-
I do not accept insurance to ensure that I can offer services without the limitations of insurance coverage, such as diagnostic requirements or number of session limitations.
Although I am not able to bill your insurance directly, I am experienced and happy to provide statements for insurance reimbursement (aka "super bills"). I recommend contacting your insurance provider and inquiring about your "out-of-network mental health" coverage to know your options.

Life happens. If you need to cancel or reschedule, please do so 48 hours prior to our scheduled session.
Any cancellations outside of this window will be charged the full fee. 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 fee.
Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (650) 735-1093.
