FAQ

  • What types of therapy do you offer?

    I provide therapy for adults, teens, and children.

  • Do you offer online sessions?

    Yes! I provide telehealth sessions to clients in CA and in-person sessions to clients in our Westlake office.

  • What are your fees and payment options?

    My fee for a 50-minute session is $150. A sliding scale may be available for clients who qualify, to help make therapy more accessible. I accept cash and most major credit cards.

  • Do you accept insurance?

    At this time, we are only paneled with Straight Medi-Cal. We are currently in the process of becoming paneled with Gold Coast Medi-Cal and LA Care Medi-Cal. If needed, I can provide a superbill to assist with reimbursement. Please reach out to confirm eligibility.

  • How long are sessions?

    Individual therapy sessions are 50 minutes.

  • How do I schedule an appointment?

    Please contact me via phone (213) 375-4522 or email ericarmft@gmail.com to book an appointment.

  • What can I expect during the first session?

    In our first meeting, we’ll discuss your goals, history, and what you hope to get from therapy. This helps us build a plan tailored to your needs. We will go at your pace, with the goal of building a strong therapeutic relationship and safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space.

  • Is therapy confidential?

    Yes, your privacy is a priority. Everything shared in sessions is confidential, with a few exceptions required by law (which I’ll explain before we begin).

  • How do I know if therapy is right for me?

    Therapy can be a valuable space if you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply want support navigating life’s challenges. If you’re unsure, feel free to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to ask questions and see if working together feels like a good fit.
