FAQs

What to expect from therapy?

Our initial meeting aims to develop an understanding of your current challenges by getting to know one another and finding out your personal story to further build upon our relationship. As we get to know one another, we will create a personalized therapy plan, so you feel comfortable and supported throughout the therapeutic process.

The length of therapy depends on your needs and goals.

Therapy sessions are 50 minutes and occur weekly. Sessions are available virtually through secure telehealth anywhere in California.

What types of issues does Kaitie specialize in?

Whatever you're carrying — anxiety, burnout, a life that feels off-track — you've come to the right place. I work primarily with individuals who look like they have it all together but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck underneath it all. Using EMDR, trauma-informed care, and insight from my own background in finance, I support clients through anxiety, trauma and PTSD, depression, ADHD, life transitions, and career-related stress. I also occasionally work with couples and offer Executive/Performance Coaching for driven professionals.

Executive/Performance Coaching Fees

For driven professionals and executives who are excelling by every external measure but feel the strain underneath — burnout, decision fatigue, difficulty disconnecting, or a growing sense that success has come at a cost. Drawing on my background in finance and clinical training, I offer performance coaching designed specifically for high achievers: addressing the mindset, stress patterns, and emotional labor that traditional executive coaching often overlooks.

Coaching sessions are goal-oriented and can focus on areas such as stress management under pressure, sustainable performance without burnout, navigating leadership transitions, and building resilience that lasts beyond the next big milestone.

Coaching is distinct from therapy — it is not a substitute for mental health treatment, but a complementary, forward-focused service for those who want a structured space to perform at a high level without sacrificing their well-being. Coaching services are not covered by insurance.

$1,200 for a 4-session coaching package, which includes:

  • Four individual coaching sessions

  • Intermittent check-ins between sessions via text, email, or brief 15-minute phone calls

  • Ongoing support throughout the month to help you stay focused, accountable, and aligned with your goals

Do you accept insurance?

I currently accept Aetna and UnitedHealthcare insurance; to ensure your specific plan is covered, I verify your insurance. For out-of-network plans, I am able to provide super-bills at the end of each month that you may submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement.

How do I get started with therapy at Kaitie Daly Psychotherapy?

You can book a consultation directly online on the “contact” page, or call Kaitie at (323) 412-9796. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can ask questions and find the right fit before committing to a full session. Upon scheduling our first session together, I will provide you with the necessary information to create your client portal. In your client portal, you will be able to review, sign, and date all the necessary paperwork.

What is the communication policy outside of sessions?

Communication outside of sessions is limited to brief, logistical needs such as scheduling, billing, and telehealth access. Messages, emails, and phone calls are answered during business hours. If you are in crisis or need immediate support, please call 988 or 911 or go to your nearest emergency room.

What is my cancellation and reschedule policy?

I kindly ask that if you do need to cancel or reschedule, please let me know 24 hours before the scheduled session time. Appointments that are canceled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged for the total amount of the session.

What is a Good Faith Estimate?

Under the No Surprises Act, you are entitled to a Good Faith Estimate that outlines expected therapy costs. This provides transparency around financial expectations for therapy throughout the state of California.

Is telehealth effective?

Research shows telehealth is just as effective as in-person therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, and more — and I offer secure video and phone sessions to clients throughout California. It provides accessibility and ease of scheduling.

How do you know if we’re a good fit?

A consultation call gives you space to share your goals, ask questions, and get a feel for whether my approach aligns with what you’re looking for. It’s important that you feel understood and comfortable—this foundation often begins on our first call and continues to grow over time. From there, therapy becomes a collaborative process, and together we can determine whether continuing to work together is the best fit for your needs or if another provider or service might better support you.

How long does therapy typically last?

The length of therapy looks different for everyone. For more focused concerns, many clients find meaningful progress within 12 weeks to 6 months. For deeper or longer-standing challenges, the process may take a year or more — and that's okay. One of the biggest factors in how therapy unfolds is you. The more open and committed you are to the process, the more you'll get out of it. Therapy works best when it's a partnership, and showing up — even on the hard days — makes a real difference.
