I operate a private practice in Oakland, California, and also offer virtual sessions (telehealth.) My per-session fee is on a sliding scale adapted and borrowed from the anti-oppressive sliding scale created by N. Oumou Sylla, LMFT, M.A. (https://www.connectwithoumou.com/faq/). I am happy to collaborate on what works best for you and would love to chat and discuss your needs!
