I am licensed to see clients in California (Psy32715). All sessions are held via telehealth, using HIPAA-compliant video conferencing. Please join from a private place with stable internet.

Contact me by submitting this form, emailing hello@kathrynhurykphd.com, or calling (510) 214-6898. I will follow up to schedule a free 10-15 minute consultation call, so we can discuss your goals and whether I might be a good fit.

We will meet for one or more intake sessions before beginning therapy. For youth, this involves separate visits with both the teen and their parent/caregiver(s). I will ask questions about what prompted you to seek therapy and conduct a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation. After this, I’ll share feedback and we’ll work together to develop a treatment plan. If my areas of expertise are not a match, I can share referrals for other providers who could be a better fit.

I specialize in evidence-based treatments for eating, mood and anxiety disorders, including: cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), family-based treatment (FBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). My therapeutic style is informed by dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and integrates skill building for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

I will ask you to complete questionnaires to monitor changes in your symptoms and quality of life over time. We will review this feedback together to gauge whether therapy is moving you closer toward your goals and consider how we might pivot if you feel stuck.

Fees are based on the customary rates for psychologists in the Bay Area. My rates are $300 for individual therapy (50 minutes) and $350 for assessments, family-based treatment, and parent coaching (60 minutes). Payment is due at the time of service. I accept credit, debit, and HSA/FSA cards.

I reserve a limited number of reduced-fee appointments for clients facing economic hardship. If you are interested in working with me but are unable to pay my full rate, please reach out. I will determine if I’m able to accommodate you, and if not, I will be happy to provide referrals.

I am an out-of-network provider, meaning I can provide you with monthly superbills to submit to your insurance provider if you have out-of-network benefits. Those with out-of-network benefits can often receive reimbursement for sessions.

To learn more about your benefits, contact your insurance company to ask:

1. What are my out-of-network benefits for outpatient psychotherapy with a psychologist?

2. What is the annual deductible? How much is remaining for the year?

3. Once the deductible is met, how much am I reimbursed for these services? What is the allowed amount? Ask specifically about the following CPT codes: initial evaluation (90791), individual therapy (90832, 90834, 90837), and family therapy (90846 and 90847).

4. Is there any difference in reimbursement for services provided via telehealth versus in-person? Are any psychotherapy services excluded from reimbursement when conducted via telehealth?

Clients are responsible for the full fee in the event of a missed or cancelled appointment with less than 48 hours notice. Please be aware that insurance companies do not reimburse for cancelled or missed sessions and it is your responsibility to pay the fee in full.
