Billing and Insurance |
I am an in-network provider for:
Fees: 100.00 to 175.00 on a sliding fee scale. 10 minute free consultations.
Clinicians who offer sliding scale payment structures may offer lower or reduced fees based on an individual's ability to pay. Please contact this clinician for more details regarding their fees or sliding scale policy.See other therapists in San Diego, CA.
I utilize a straight forward and empathic approach to treatment. I believe that to have a happy life one must focus on having meaning and purpose, while also developing effective skills for dealing with problems and challenges in your day to day life. Quality of life has also been shown to come from relationships, so I also work toward improving relationships and increasing an individuals self awareness to better manage his or her interpersonal effectiveness. My approach to therapy uses a combination of support and skill building to help you heal or make the changes you need to have a better life.

How Psychotherapy Can Help
Therapy can help you learn more about your own personal way of managing your life so that you can improve upon your current skills and develop new ones as well. Therapy can help you feel less strained and overwhelmed, providing tools to manage these feelings. Therapy can help you increase self confidence and pursue your goals and dreams. Therapy can help you feel greater pleasure in activities you invest in, as well as improve your physical health (such as decrease headaches, stomachaches). Therapy can help your sleep or decrease reliance on substances. Therapy can help improve your performance at your job or at home. Therapy can help you cope if you or someone in your family has been diagnosed with a chronic or terminal illness. Therapy can help you if you suffered a trauma and you can't seem to stop thinking about it. Lastly, therapy can help you feel a greater sense of peace and connectivity within yourself and with others.
