Frequently Asked Questions

  • I specialize in working with adult men, regardless of sexual orientation.

  • My style is active and engaged, to help move things along. I draw from multiple therapeutic modalities to address the major dimensions of the mind-body experience—thinking, feeling, the body, relationships, and the existential-spiritual.

  • I've been practicing psychology for over 27 years, with roughly 30,000 sessions completed. I worked part-time for seven years at Stanford University’s Counseling and Psychological Services, and have been in private practice since 2001.

  • While I’m based in the San Francisco and Palo Alto area, my practice is exclusively online. Sessions take place via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform and are available for men across California.

  • Most clients start with weekly or bi-weekly sessions to build momentum. As you make progress, we may shift to less frequent meetings. I'm flexible, and we'll find a rhythm that works best for your specific situation.

  • It varies based on your goals and the complexity of what you're working through. Some clients see significant shifts in 10-25 sessions, while others benefit from longer-term work. I design our approach to be as efficient as possible.

  • Please contact me for more information about session fees.

  • No, I’m an out-of-network provider. Depending on your insurance coverage, you may be able to use your out-of-network benefits for partial reimbursement. Please contact me for more information.

  • Email me to request an initial consultation. I offer a free 20-30 minute intro call to see if we might be a good fit. It's a no-pressure conversation where you can ask questions and get a feel for my approach before making any commitment.
