COMMON QUESTIONS
A few things you might be wondering.
You don’t need to know exactly what to say before reaching out.
Can I use insurance through this platform?
No. Sessions booked through this website are private pay only. I am not in network with any plan, and I do not bill insurance.
Can I see David if I live in Los Angeles?
Yes, if you are physically located in California during the session. I am licensed in California and provide online therapy for adults and seniors in Hawaii and California, and we need to confirm fit and availability.
What happens in the first session?
We’ll explore what you’re hoping to get from therapy and talk about approaches that may fit. You don’t need to arrive with everything figured out.
Do you offer in-person therapy?
No. I offer online sessions only, Monday–Friday, for adults and seniors in Hawaii and California.
Do you offer therapy in Spanish?
David also speaks Spanish. If you'd like to talk about sessions in Spanish, ask during your free call.
How do I book?
Booking stays on this website. The scheduling screen shown there is a sample, and this website has no form of its own.
Can I get a superbill or use an HSA/FSA?
Superbills are available on request. If you want to ask your plan about out-of-network reimbursement, you may be able to use a superbill. Reimbursement is not guaranteed, and I do not submit insurance claims.
How much does a standard session cost?
A standard individual session is 50 minutes and costs $150. The intake session is the same. You can ask for a written Good Faith Estimate before care.
Are sessions by video?
Yes. All sessions are online; I don’t offer in-person appointments. Find a private, comfortable space and a reliable internet connection.
Can I get a Good Faith Estimate?
Yes. If you do not have health insurance or will not use it to pay for care, you can ask for a written estimate of expected charges before receiving services. This website notice is not a personalized estimate.
Are you taking new clients? Is there a consultation?
Yes. I am accepting clients. A free 15-minute introductory call is available.
What if I need urgent help?
Not for emergencies. If you need immediate help, call 988 or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), call 911, or go to the nearest ER.
Do not wait for a response through this site.
Is the website contact channel confidential?
There is no intake form on this website. Please don’t share health details by ordinary email or in a general inquiry.
