There is the therapeutic side of our relationship, and there is the business side. I believe both should be transparent, fair, and free of surprises.

Insurance

I do not maintain contracts with insurance companies. This is a deliberate choice to keep our work private and determined solely by your needs, not by a corporation’s algorithm or diagnostic requirements.

Our relationship is strictly between you and me. If your insurance (or anyone else, for that matter) would like to pay me directly for our sessions, I will certainly not refuse it.

Logistics: Where do we meet?

My physical practice moves between Los Angeles (which is often overbooked), Prague, and Caesarea due to family reasons.

However, phone sessions are always available for all clients.

I prioritize consistency. Regardless of where I am physically located, we can always work together by phone.

How Payments Work

I operate on a simple pay-as-you-go model. I don’t believe in locking you into “package deals” or long-term financial commitments. You pay only for the session you need.

  • You can pay in whatever manner is most comfortable for you.
  • To hold your appointment time, I ask that payments be made no later than 24 hours before the session.

Pricing and The Sliding Scale

My fees are set on a sliding scale based on your individual situation.

As I mentioned regarding the length of therapy, I significantly lower the fee after the initial phase of our work. My purpose is to ensure that money is never the obstacle that stops your progress just as you are gaining momentum.

Exceptions

1. If you are a war veteran (of any country) seeking help with PTSD, you are eligible for the reduced rate starting from the very first session. (we will ask for proof of service).

2. If your financial dilemma is between paying for therapy and buying food, obviously, buy the food.

But even in those circumstances, please contact me. We will do our best to find a solution that fits your budget, or I will personally help refer you to a colleague or organization that can help.

It’s time for you to leave this issue behind. Take the first step today.
