Services are offered in both English and Spanish.

​

Specialties include ADHD, Depression, Parent-Child Conflict, and School problems. I'm also a huge fan of working with children of divorce, and children of high achievers.

Initial consultation (20 min): Free

​

Intake session (90 minutes): $600

No show fees: A no show is an unplanned absence from our session, a cancellation with fewer than 48 hours notice, or arriving more than 15 minutes late to a session without prior notice. "No shows" are subject to paying their full fee for the session scheduled. 

​

Clients are expected to keep a credit card on file, and payment is due at the end of each session.

Slow Down Psychology, LLC is not paneled with any insurance companies. 

 

Clients are automatically given a Superbill once per month so that they may submit them to their insurance company.

 

With the help of our wonderful client coordinator and the online program Reimbursify, we're also able to offer assistance with verifying out of network benefits, and submitting superbills on your behalf to facilitate the process of getting reimbursed from your insurance company (if you have out of network benefits for mental health).
