Sara Ouimette, California Psychotherapy

No. Psychedelic integration therapy is different than psychedelic therapy where there is a therapist or guide present during an actual psychedelic experience. Psychedelic integration therapy maximizes the benefits and minimizes the risks associated with psychedelic use through talk therapy. Although psychedelic therapy has received a great deal of positive media recently, the use of these substances always comes with risk of adverse effects or harm. For this reason, I do not promote the use of these substances or provide referrals for psychedelic therapy.

I am not available for crisis services or support. If you are in danger of harm or self-harm, call 911 or go to your local emergency room. If you are struggling with a mental health emergency or are feeling suicidal, you can also call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.

No. I work with individual adults only.

Not yet. I will be sure to post an update when this changes. I am only offering sessions via a secure video portal or by phone until further notice.

Unfortunately, no. Since I am licensed in California, I can only work with people who are physically located in California.

I hold a spot at the same day and time every week for you. I believe therapy is most effective when we meet consistently. Therefore, I do not see people less than once a week. I understand that this is a big commitment of your time and financial resources, yet I also believe you will get the most out of your therapy this way.

My fee is $225 per 50 minute session. Payment is due at the time services are rendered.

No, I am not on any insurance panels. I am considered an out-of-network provider. If you have out-of-network benefits, you might be eligible for reimbursement for a portion of the session cost. I can provide the form you would need to submit to your insurance for reimbursement. You will need to call your insurance company to inquire about your benefits. Regardless of your insurance, I require payment up front at the time of service.
