About Me

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a private practice located in San Francisco. Start Psychotherapy is the name of the practice and the office is located in Presidio Heights next to Laurel Village. My services include individual and couples psychotherapy. I am currently accepting new patients for in-person and virtual services for California residents. I'm an out-of-network provider which means that I do not accept insurance. My fee is $175 for a full 60 minute session for individuals. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to make an introduction and determine if we’re a good fit.
