Frequently Asked Questions

  • Psychodynamic therapy is based on the idea that our present experiences are shaped not only by what is happening today, but also by earlier relationships, life experiences, and ways of adapting that may now be operating outside of awareness. Rather than focusing only on symptom relief, we work together to understand the deeper emotional patterns influencing your life. That understanding can create more freedom, flexibility, and lasting change.

  • Individual therapy sessions for adults and adolescents 12+ are $185, and couples therapy sessions are $200. I also reserve a limited number of sliding scale appointments for clients with financial need. Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss availability.

    In-person sessions take place at Inner Vision Psychotherapy’s offices in Pasadena. I also offer secure telehealth sessions for clients located anywhere in California.

  • I am an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. If your plan includes out-of-network mental health benefits, I can provide a monthly superbill that you may submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

  • I generally recommend beginning with weekly sessions, as consistency creates the conditions for therapy to develop depth and momentum. Depending on your needs and goals, we may decide that meeting less or more than once a week would be beneficial. We'll discuss together what feels most appropriate for you.

  • Therapy is a unique relationship, and finding someone you feel comfortable with matters. During our consultation, you'll have the opportunity to ask questions, tell me a little about what's bringing you in, and get a sense of how I work. You're never obligated to move forward—my hope is simply that you find a therapist who feels like the right fit, whether that's me or someone else.
