$110 - 50 minute office visit

I do not bill insurance directly. I ask to be paid in full at the time of each service. At the beginning of each month I will provide you an invoice for services paid for in the month prior. Each invoice includes all the information you need to submit payment to your insurance.
I keep my rates lower due to not billing insurance directly. I also accept a certain number of sliding scale clients per year. If you feel you are in need of a lowered rate, please inquire and we will start a conversation
I am in-network with some plans on the Kaiser network, which increases the amount you’ll be reimbursed per session.

I conduct Parent Seminars at local area schools. These workshops focus on providing parents hands-on tools for understanding and managing behaviors and conflict at home. Workshops are educational and are also highly participatory. Best suited for groups of 10-20. Seminar topics include:
-
Strengthening Family Communication: Talking so your kids will listen and listening so your kids will talk.
-
Handling Strong Emotions: How to keep your family calm in the eye of the storm.
-
Guiding your children with Limits and Effective Discipline
-
Encouraging Positive Behavior: Strategies for motivating and reinforcing your child’s behavior
-
Developing a Meaningful Family Routine
I have also conducted a 6-week workshop on Procrastination.
Please contact me if you are interested in me providing a workshop or Parent Seminar.
