Getting to know Dr. Dana Takamoto

I specialize in helping people get "unstuck," whether you're feeling lonely or unsatisfied with your current relationships, work, or lifestyle. I can help you identify what's getting in the way of living a more motivated, loving, and enjoyable life. One of my passions is helping couples reconnect and deepen their connection through an effective Attachment Therapy approach. I also specialize in working with your inner child-the unexpressed feelings and needs of your younger self. The therapy process involves identifying these feelings and practicing new ways of thinking and responding, which often results in feeling more empowered, authentic, and at peace. I hold a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from John F. Kennedy University, which informs my compassionate and evidence-based approach. I look forward to helping you get "unstuck" and achieve a more gratifying and purposeful life. Please see my website for more information: HealingAttachments.com

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $250 for 45 minutes

  • Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
  • Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront

More information on payments and coverage

I currently see adults, couples and families. My rate is $250/session for individuals and $300/session for couples and families. However, you're welcome to use your PPO Insurance benefits or HSA/FSA to help subsidize the sessions. If I'm in-netowrk with your insurance company you can sign a form to opt-out of using your insurance. Please inquire if you'd like to discuss this further. Thrizer is also an option to help manage the insurance billing and reimbursement for you.
