FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why the name “Forge The Key Therapy”?: “Forging The Key” in therapy represents the process of collaboration and combined energy to find and create effective tools and help you discover valuable abilities within yourself. You may be able to access parts of yourself and create “keys” to open doors that you never knew were possible or achievable.

Where are you located?: I serve all of California via online therapy. I do not currently offer in-person sessions.

What are the private pay rates?: For an individual 55 minute session I charge $200.00.

What are the out of network options?:  I provide monthly superbills for those who would like to use them.  They work for most PPO plans and some EPO plans. Superbills are a receipt of services paid for with a diagnosis.  You submit the superbill to insurance for partial reimbursement.  The amount that you get back varies and depends on your specific plan.  Some people get half or even full coverage using superbills.  You may need to meet your deductible before you get the reimbursement, but submitting the superbills go toward your deductible.

What is Different About Therapy Than Just Talking to a Friend?

Someone who has training will be able to give you objective feedback that is confidential and provide you with research backed skills. Therapy is a dynamic process and is all about you, which leaves space for you to focus on what you need. Lastly, sometimes we just vent to friends, but therapy is a collaborative process- feedback from the therapist is an important piece.

How Does Telehealth or Virtual Therapy Work & What are the Benefits?

Telehealth is therapy using an internet based confidential platform via live video. This can be more convenient, save time, and can be used anywhere you have access to internet, a phone or computer and a quiet confidential space. Research has shown that telehealth can be just as effective as in
person therapy.
