  • All psychotherapy services are confidential and use HIPAA compliant software programs, Doximity and SimplePractice. Consultation calls are not considered psychotherapy, but are nonetheless conducted securely by phone via Doximity. Assessment (Evaluation) and Intervention (Follow-Up) sessions are conducted virtually through SimplePractice.

  • All psychotherapy sessions are virtual, so you can join from the comfort of your home or office. This makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule without commuting throughout California and across the Bay.
