Do you take insurance?

We are out-of-network providers for most insurance companies but can provide a monthly 'superbill' for you to submit for reimbursement. We are in-network with Aetna for certain services (please verify with us).

What is the fee for therapy?

Individual therapy session fees range from $150 to $275 per session, depending on the therapist. We also offer a limited number of sliding scale spots.

How much does psychological testing cost?

Evaluations are flat-fee based. Typical pricing is $2,500 for Autism-Only, $2,800 for ADHD-Only, and $4,500 for a Comprehensive Evaluation. A combined Autism + Comprehensive evaluation is $5,200.

Do you offer virtual therapy?

Yes, we offer virtual therapy to clients anywhere in California. Our coaching services are available to clients nationwide.

What is your cancellation policy?

We require at least 24 hours' notice to cancel a session. If you cancel with less than 24 hours' notice, you will be charged the full fee for the missed session.

What happens in the first therapy session?

The first session is a conversation to identify your goals, discuss what has worked for you in the past, and determine if the therapist is a good fit. You can ask questions about their approach and experience.
