Sessions by appointment · Hours vary by clinician

In person in Laguna Beach and by telehealth across California. Out of network, with a superbill after every session; the questions we get asked most cover how that works.

How It Works

Three steps from your first message to your first session.

01

Reach out

Honest About Fit

Talk before you commit to anything. Sessions are typically 50 minutes, in person or by telehealth.

The Space

What the room is like.

A converted suite on Third Street, not a clinic corridor.

Sessions happen in a room with soft light, real furniture and space to sit without feeling observed. Paix and Luz are usually somewhere nearby, and they are always optional: say so when you book and they will be elsewhere.

Getting here
Street parking on Third Street, more a short walk away in the village
