questions
-
People seek therapy to feel better, and one thing we know is that if we are not alone in the dark and tough times, we suffer less. The safe and confidential environment of therapy allows you to explore the difficult and challenging areas of your life, express emotions that perhaps have been stuck in you for many years, and create possibilities of happiness in your life that you previously before never thought possible. Therapy is a personal and unique experience for everyone, and we tailor it to suit your needs.
-
Yes! We are legally and ethically bound to adhere to strict California confidentiality laws. The fact we know each other, that you are in therapy, and ALL information you share with your therapist remains completely confidential. Therapy provides a safe container for you to explore thoughts and express feelings about all sorts of things without worry that someone else might find out. There are a few exceptions to these laws you need to know: If you intend to cause serious harm to yourself or someone else, we are mandated by law to inform the proper authorities to prevent that from happening. If there is suspected child abuse or elder abuse, we are mandated by law to notify the proper authorities to prevent that from occurring. The only other reason we would need to break confidentiality is if we are court-ordered to do so, which usually occurs if you are in a lawsuit and present your mental health as a factor in the lawsuit.

Our therapy fees range from $185-280 for a 50-minute session depending on your therapist. We accept some Medi-Cal insurance plans, depending on your therapist.
