  • I have partnered with Mentaya, a service that streamlines getting reimbursed for your therapy sessions through out-of-network benefits.

    Mentaya is perfect if you:

    • Have out of network benefits

    • Feel overwhelmed by superbills and insurance

    • Have submitted superbills but failed to get any reimbursement

    • Simply want to skip the hassle of paperwork!

    Mentaya charges a 5% fee per claim, which includes handling any paperwork required, dealing with denials, and calling insurance companies.

    It's risk-free: Mentaya guarantees claims are successfully submitted, or a full refund of their fees.

    Please note that I cannot guarantee insurance reimbursement for my services, so I recommend reaching out to your insurance provider to verify your out-of-network benefits.

  • Yes! I offer in-person services at my office in Orangevale, CA (Sacramento County). The following services are available in-person:

    • Individual Therapy for Mamas

    • Couples Therapy for Parents

    • New Mom Crew (Support Group for Mamas)

  • I do! Grab your comfiest blanket, snuggle up in your favorite spot, and come to session wherever you are (within the state of California)!

  • I am only licensed in California, therefore, per state laws, I am only able to offer therapy services to clients who currently live in California.

    If you need a provider in your area, I highly recommend checking out the provider directories offered by Postpartum Support International (PSI) and Psychology Today.

  • Absolutely! I’m happy for your new baby to join us. Please make yourself comfortable and care for your baby’s needs as necessary during session.

    As your baby gets older, we will re-evaluate together when it’s time for them to “graduate” from our sessions so you can have a solo space to process. Generally, I find babies are ready to graduate when they become mobile.

  • I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. If you are unable to attend a session, please cancel at least 24 hours before your scheduled appointment time. You will be charged for the full rate of the session for any cancellation less than 24 hours ahead of time.

    Additionally, I can only hold sessions for 15 minutes past the scheduled start time. If you are more than 15 minutes late, the session is considered missed, and you will be charged for the full rate of the session.
