What will my first session look like?

Currently, our available appointment times are limited to evenings and weekends.

Your first therapy session will enCOmpass several elements.

To begin, we will dedicate time to getting acquainted with each other. We will inquire about any specific COncerns you may have, the difficulties you are currently enCOuntering, and your desired therapy goals, and gain a general understanding of your journey.

We will also discuss various policies and procedures to ensure that we are both on the same page and in alignment. This will provide you with an opportunity to ask any questions you may have and seek clarification on any aspects of the therapy process.

How much will therapy COst?

Therapy COsts can vary by provider. Our cost is $175-$225 per session. Each session is approx. 50 minutes long. Rates vary for individual, family, and CUPles™ therapy. Here’s an overview of how insurance and fees are managed:

• We are a healthcare provider affiliated with Aetna, Cigna, MHN, United HealthCare, Oscar Health, Blue Shield of California, Anthem Blue Cross California, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Oxford, and Optum. For all other insurance plans, we are considered an out-of-network provider, which means you will need to make direct payments to our practice.
•  This does not automatically imply that your insurance won’t cover any part of our services. It simply means you must handle any reimbursement negotiations with your insurance provider. To assist you in this process, we are more than willing to supply you with an invoice or “superbill” containing all the necessary details and information.
• We offer a sliding fee scale for those with financial needs, though these spots are limited in number. We are open to chatting about alternate payment options and referrals for financial support through Therapy for Black Women and Therapy For Black Men during our initial COnsultation.
• No Surprise Act

  If you don’t have health insurance or plan to pay for healthcare yourself, providers and facilities must give you a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) of expected charges when you schedule an appointment or request an estimate. This estimate outlines anticipated costs but isn’t a bill and may not cover all services, especially those scheduled separately. Providers must give you the GFE within specific timeframes and explain it in an accessible format. Keep the estimate to compare with future bills.

Is therapy right for me, my partner or my family?

If you find yourself pondering whether therapy is suitable for you, your partner, or your family, chances are it could be beneficial!

If you’re experiencing feelings of sadness, depression, emotional pain, anxiety, loneliness, disconnection from yourself, your partner, or your family, or if you’re navigating life with a fluctuation of intense emotions, it is entirely reasonable to consider embarking on a healing journey through therapy.
