Online Psychotherapy Services (serving California & Oregon)

If you would like to find out more about me, my work, or how I may help support you, please email me at alyd.mft@gmail.com or via https://alyd-mft.clientsecure.me/. As a neuro-different person, I prefer to communicate via email to schedule initial consultations, but please know it may take me several days to get back to you. A (no cost) consultation is required prior to the onset of services and typically lasts about 20-30 minutes.

You may contact me at alyd.mft@gmail.com or https://alyd-mft.clientsecure.me/ to schedule an initial consultation or to be placed on my waitlist.

Fall 2023 Rates

$175 per 60-minute session

$250 per 75-minute session (recommended for AF-EMDR and trauma-focused work)

$300 per 90-minute initial intake appointment and/or clinical assessment

I am a cash-pay practice, which means that I am not paneled as an in-network provider with any insurance companies and do not engage in direct billing with insurance for services. I can provide a superbill for clients with out-of-network benefits to submit to insurance upon request but ask that this be discussed in advance. A sliding scale fee arrangement may be negotiated for a limited period of time upon request.

Additional Clinical Assessment Services:

$50 per access to one (online) clinical assessment tool from IITAP

  • Post Traumatic Stress Index, Revised (PTSI-R)
  • Sexual Dependency Inventory (SDI)
  • Money & Work Adaptive Styles Index (MAWSI)
  • Inventory of Partner Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma (IPAST)

Once the test has been completed, results will be reviewed and discussed during subsequent appointments, which are billed at the regular hourly rate.

The Neuro-Affirming Autism Screening Tool developed by me and my colleague, Candice Christiansen, is also available for review in sessions billed at my regular rate or in an 8-week group/class format coming soon. Contact me for more information.

Clinical Supervision & Clinical Consultation

I provide online clinical supervision for pre-licensed MFT/MSW/LPC’s at the Grateful Heart Holistic Therapy Center in San Francisco, CA https://gratefulhearttherapy.org/. Reduced rate of $100 per 60 minute individual supervision, pending availability.

I provide one-time or ongoing clinical consultation for licensed mental health professionals interested in learning more about neuro-affirmative care, neuro-affirmative autism screening for adult women, differential diagnosis, neuro-inclusive treatment adaptations, polyvagal theory, creative expressive arts, or any other modalities noted on my website. Feel free to reach out to connect!
