The Practice
As a sole proprietorship, I am the only contract you will have. I am currently accepting limited insurance through helloalma.com. If your insurance is not accepted through this portal, I can provide a superbill so you can seek reimbursement through your insurance. While this can inconvenience you, it also insulates the treatment from utilization review which can lead to termination of treatment payment without your or my consent.
While favoring individual therapy, I conduct couples and family therapy as well. I use an integrative approach informed by psychodynamic, feminist (evaluating power in relations), interpersonal, and biological basis of behavior. Psychological and learning disability assessment have also been a part of my practice since 2004 and I continue to offer assessment today.
Treating Everyone
The Ethical Code of the APA is one which requires striving toward non-bias. I have been working with the diversity in the Sacramento Valley Area since my practice opened in 2004. The diversity included low and high SES, LGBTQAI+, ethnically and religiously diverse, incarcerated and non-incarcerated, those with addictions, and those with their own biases. I genuinely like people and with this in mind much bias can fall by the wayside. I would rather understand than judge.
