    How Virtual Therapy Works

    Telehealth allows us to engage in powerful somatic and holistic work without the commute. Here is what you can expect.

    Secure & Private

    We use a fully HIPAA-compliant video platform. Your sessions remain completely confidential, just as they would in a physical office.

    Your Safe Space

    Create a cozy, quiet environment in your own home. Being in a familiar space often allows clients to drop into deeper states of relaxation and vulnerability.

    Holistic Modalities

    Techniques like EFT (Tapping), Somatic awareness, and IFS translate beautifully to video, allowing for profound mind-body healing at a distance.

    Preparing for Your Virtual Session

    • Find a quiet space: Choose a room where you won't be interrupted and feel comfortable speaking freely.
    • Check your connection: Ensure you have a stable internet connection and your device is charged or plugged in.
    • Set the mood: Feel free to have a cup of tea, a blanket, or light a candle to make the space feel therapeutic.
    • Use headphones: Earbuds or headphones can improve audio quality and enhance your sense of privacy.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Virtual Therapy

    Do you see clients outside of Newport Beach?

    As a California-licensed therapist, I'm able to offer telehealth sessions to anyone physically located within the state of California at the time of our session — from Los Angeles and Orange County to San Diego and beyond.

    Does insurance cover telehealth sessions?

    Telehealth sessions are billed the same as in-person sessions. I'm in-network with UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, and Optum, though many clients choose to pay privately ($200 for 50-55 minutes) for added flexibility in session frequency and treatment approach. If you'd prefer to pay privately or your plan isn't listed, I'm happy to provide a superbill for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

    Is virtual therapy as effective as in-person therapy?

    Research and clinical experience show that virtual therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions for most concerns, including somatic and holistic work. Many clients find that being in their own space actually helps them feel more relaxed and open during our sessions.
