Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

🔹What services do you offer?

I provide individual therapy, couples therapy & family therapy with a primary focus on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an evidence-based approach that helps individuals, couples and families strengthen emotional bonds, improve communication, and heal from relational distress.

🔹What is Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)?

EFT is a well-researched, structured approach to therapy that focuses on understanding and transforming emotional patterns in relationships. It helps couples and individuals move from conflict and disconnection toward secure, supportive, and meaningful connections.

🔹Do you offer online (telehealth) sessions?

Yes, I offer secure online therapy sessions (telehealth) via Zoom. This allows you to attend sessions from the comfort of your home.

🔹Which states do you work with?

I am licensed to provide therapy to clients who are physically located in:

  • California (LMFT)

  • Michigan (LPC)

Due to licensing regulations, I am only able to work with clients who are in one of these states at the time of the session.

🔹Should I start with individual or couples therapy?

This depends on your goals and situation. In many cases:

Couples therapy is recommended when relationship dynamics are the main concern

Individual sessions may be helpful to support personal processing alongside couples work

We can discuss this together and decide what fits best for you.

🔹Do you offer a consultation before starting therapy?

Yes, I offer a 20–30 minute complimentary consultation. This is an opportunity for us to briefly connect, get to know each other, and discuss what you’re looking for in therapy. It also allows us to determine whether we are a good fit before moving forward.

🔹Do you work with culturally diverse or international clients?

Yes. I have experience working with clients from diverse cultural, religious, and international backgrounds, including individuals and couples navigating cross-cultural relationships.

🔹What are your fees?

My fee is $250 per 50-minute session.

If you are using insurance, your out-of-pocket cost may vary depending on your plan (e.g., copay, deductible, or coinsurance). I’m happy to help you understand your benefits and walk you through the process.

🔹What are your fees?

I require 24–48 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations or missed sessions are subject to the full session fee.

🔹Do you offer group therapy for men?

Yes, I offer an ongoing men’s therapy group for individuals who are navigating challenges such as stress, relationships, emotional struggles, trauma, and personal growth. The group provides a supportive and confidential space to connect with others, gain insight, and develop healthier ways of relating to yourself and others.
