About Insurance
Should you choose to bill your insurance, please note the following:
Insurance companies sometimes require that the therapist share your confidential information with them. Your information doesn't always stay with me.
Insurance companies require that you be diagnosed with a mental health disorder to cover the cost of service. This becomes part of your permanent record.
Insurance companies determine how many sessions are covered, which means the insurance company - not you nor I - am in charge of your treatment.
FAQ
Below are some questions that you might have before beginning therapy:
-
Yes! I utilize a HIPAA compliant, secure platform for online counseling. As long as you are in California and Texas, I can provide the same quality of service from the comfort of your home, your office or wherever you are.
-
It depends on you. For marriage counseling, you'll be in therapy for a shorter time if you apply the tools. For insomnia treatment, just 5 to 7 sessions. For brainspotting, it could also be a few sessions, depending on the depth of trauma.
-
Sessions are $190 each. If you have a PPO insurance plan, you might be able to get a percentage of your therapy sessions reimbursed if you wish.
-
If you feel like you’re stuck, anxiety has a hold on you, you’ve tried everything you can possibly think of, but nothing seems to be helping, then it might be time to reach out to a therapist and see if I can help you get unstuck.
-
Currently I am in network with Aetna, however I can work with clients who have PPO plans. If you have a HMO plan you won’t get reimbursed for working with me. If you have a PPO plan, call your insurance company and ask if you have any mental health benefits and if they will be willing to reimburse you for out of network services.

‘Standard therapy sessions are about 53 minutes; however, I also offer longer therapy sessions called intensives. Click here to find out more.
-
Because I do not provide one size fits all therapy or counseling, it really all depends on how fast you move towards meeting your goals. We typically stop therapy once you start to feel better. If you are coming to me specifically for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, then we will work together for 5 to 7 sessions.
-
I understand that financial needs vary, but unfortunately, I do not have sliding scale fees available at this time. All my clients are treated the same and pay the same fee. If you’d like, I’d be happy to refer you to a community mental health agency or an agency that provides income-based services. You may also take a look on https://openpathcollective.org to see if they can meet your needs. Please note I am not an affiliate of Open Path.
-
Unfortunately, I do not. My office hours are weekdays from 930am till 430pm. If you really need evenings or weekends, I’d be happy to refer you to a colleague who can accommodate you.
-
In the states of California & Texas, therapy is confidential. However, there are some situations in which I have to make a report like:
- child abuse;
- dependent adult abuse;
- elder abuse;
if you are a danger to yourself or others.
If you still have questions after reading the above, please email me (ibi@thezinniapractice.com) or text me (951-905-3181). I’ll gladly answer your questions.
