Frequently Asked Questions
How will counseling help me?
Counseling can help you in various ways. One way is that it can help you work through the hardship or pain that you are experiencing. Counseling is a safe and neutral environment for you to sort through thoughts and feelings, and you can learn new ways of coping with stress.
Is counseling confidential?
Yes, counseling is confidential. However, I may break confidentiality if the following situations are present: if you are suicidal/homicidal, unable to provide adequate care for yourself, or if there is child/elderly/dependent adult abuse. These exceptions to confidentiality mean that these situations will usually be reported to the appropriate authorities if they arise in therapy.
What can I expect from counseling?
Like other things in life, what you get out of counseling equals what you put into counseling. That means that your commitment and motivation is an integral part of what you will gain from counseling. Counseling is not a quick fix to problems, but rather it is a process in which you learn different ways of resolving and understanding your struggles.
What is your fee and what payment do you accept?
The fee for a 50 min therapy session varies from $90-130. Couples and family sessions are charged at a higher rate. At this time, I am accepting cash/check/credit card payment, Halcyon, Claremont EAP, and medi-cal health insurance. I may accept other health insurances in the near future. There is a sliding scale fee available based on income. You can contact me for more information about this.
