INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY

Session Time: Sessions last 50 minutes or so.

Length of Treatment: Clients can begin or stop treatment any time they wish. Some clients see me very briefly, others value support for a year or longer. I will discuss your goals with you during your first session, and we can review them regularity if you wish.

Cancellations: I request a minimum 48-hour notice for cancelling individual psychotherapy sessions.

Insurance Reimbursement: I do not participate with any insurance panels, but can supply clients with an itemized receipt for their possible out-of-network coverage.

Confidentiality/HIPPA: I keep your private information safe and confidential. I will review office policies in the first session or group.

GROUPS

Session Time: Group sessions last for about two hours.

Length of Treatment: Some groups run for a limited, short-term (often 8-week sessions or 12-week sessions). Other groups choose to gather in an ongoing way. Typically, I form groups with my established clients, or from referrals from the psychotherapy community. Please call me at 415-944-8677 to discuss your interest in groups.

Cancellations: I request a monthly commitment to groups, after the first session.

Confidentiality/HIPPA: I keep your private information safe and confidential. I will review office policies in the first session or group.
