FAQ

  • Do you see people in person?

    We offer all sessions via Telehealth (phone or online video). We like the flexibility it gives you and us to meet each other without barriers such as California traffic or limited parking.

    P.S. For my out of state folks, I love being able to see you and Telehealth makes it possible and also keeps you from driving!

    Therapy Routine Sessions are 50 Minutes

  • Do you take insurance?

    Yes, for therapy services we are able to accept insurance.

    For Life Advising sessions and packages, insurance is not accepted. Call and and speak with our Illumination Team regarding payment plans.

  • What is your cancellation policy?

    Time is so important to everyone, and we want to ensure that our services are as vital to you as the thing that might keep you from attending sessions. Cancellations must be received 24 hours before your appointment. If you fail to meet this requirement, there will be a late cancellation/no show fee charged

  • Do you assign homework?

    You can receive it only if you like homework! “Homework,” such as meditation prompts or possible techniques completed or attempted between live sessions, is a great way to progress between our meeting times but is always optional.

  • Is telehealth secure?

    Yes! We utilize a HIPAA-compliant platform to send video visits. This secure platform sends you an email at the point of scheduling and 48 hours before your appointment, and only you and your therapist have access to that video link. No selling of information.
