Frequently Asked Questions
-
Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, gain perspective, and reconnect with yourself. Whether you are navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, or a major life transition, therapy provides a safe, supportive, and confidential space to explore your experiences without judgment.
Together, we will better understand the patterns and stories that may be keeping you stuck, build on your existing strengths, develop practical tools for navigating life's challenges, and help you reconnect with yourself, your relationships, and the life you want to create.
Over time, therapy can foster greater self-awareness, resilience, confidence, and a deeper sense of connection to what matters most.

The fee for a 50-minute psychotherapy session at California Pacific Psychotherapy is $225.
A limited number of reduced-fee appointments are available for clients experiencing financial hardship. If those appointments are unavailable or I am unable to meet your financial needs, I would be happy to provide referrals to other trusted therapists and community resources.
-
California Pacific Psychotherapy is a private-pay practice and is considered an out-of-network provider for most insurance plans. Payment is due at the time of each session.
Choosing to remain a private-pay practice allows therapy to be tailored to your unique needs rather than the requirements of an insurance company. It also provides greater privacy, flexibility, and the freedom to focus on your personal goals without restrictions related to diagnosis, treatment length, or medical necessity.
If you have a PPO insurance plan with out-of-network mental health benefits, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement. Upon request, we are happy to provide a superbill that you can submit directly to your insurance company.
Because coverage varies by plan, we encourage you to contact your insurance provider to verify your out-of-network mental health benefits before beginning therapy.
Our goal is to provide thoughtful, personalized care in a supportive and confidential environment where your therapy is guided by your unique needs—not the limitations of an insurance plan.

I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step. Whether you are ready to begin or simply have questions, I welcome you to reach out. Finding the right therapist is important, and I would welcome the opportunity to learn more about you and discuss how I may be able to support you.
-
I recognize that unexpected situations can arise. If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, I ask that you provide at least 24 hours' notice whenever possible.
Because your appointment time is reserved especially for you, appointments canceled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours' notice, as well as missed appointments, are subject to the full session fee.
