1 on 1 Therapy in Sherman Oaks
Nobody understands your life better than you. My job is to guide you to ask the questions and find the answers that you’re looking for and to assist you in living the life you want to live. Together we can explore different parts of your life from your relationships to your inner-life and come up with a way for you to move in a positive direction.
Therapy is different for everyone. Depending on the issues you are struggling with in your life, therapy might be cathartic and heavy or it might feel like a vacation from your everyday week. I try to tell my clients to think of your weekly session as the one hour in your week that you can completely and totally dedicate to yourself. Our time is a safe place for you to ask yourself the tough questions that will help you move forward in your life and explore things about yourself and your relationships that you might not otherwise explore.

Why do people go to therapy and how do I know if it is right for me?
What is therapy like?
It is important to understand that you will get more results from therapy if you actively participate in the process. The ultimate purpose of therapy is to help you bring what you learn in session back into your life. Therefore, beyond the work you do in therapy sessions, your therapist may suggest some things you can do outside of therapy to support your process – such as reading a pertinent book, journaling on specific topics, noting particular behaviors or taking action on your goals. People seeking psychotherapy are ready to make positive changes in their lives, are open to new perspectives and take responsibility for their lives.
What about medication vs. psychotherapy?
Do you take insurance, and how does that work?
Currently, I am accepting Optum insurance. I can also provide a superbill as an out of network provider, but I highly recommend you reaching out to your insurance to understand what your reimbursement rates are.
Does what we talk about in therapy remain confidential?
However, state law and professional ethics require therapists to maintain confidentiality except for the following situations:
* Suspected past or present abuse or neglect of children, adults, and elders to the authorities, including Child Protection and law enforcement, based on information provided by the client or collateral sources.
* If the therapist has reason to suspect the client is seriously in danger of harming him/herself or has threated to harm another person.
