Ira is incredibly knowledgeable, blending different philosophies, resources, and treatment methodologies in our sessions. His direct and action-oriented approach is exactly what is needed— he provides practical advice, tools, and exercises that can be used immediately. He brings a level of empathy and understanding that makes you feel heard and supported. Ira has been a fantastic choice.
I have had a few sessions with Ira; and I was blown away. He is authentic and a good listener. He gave me tools to cope with my stuggles. And his advices are working!

More about Ira Israel, LMFT, LPCC

If you plan on using Cigna, United Healthcare, Optum or Oscar insurance to pay for your session, then please provide me with your date of birth and a photo or pdf of the front of your insurance card. After I verify your co-pay and deductible, I will email you back to confirm your fee. If you are not insured by Cigna, United Healthcare, Optum or Oscar, then you will pay the out-of-network fee and then submit a monthly superbill to your health insurance company for reimbursement. To reiterate, I am NOT in-network for Blue Shield, Anthem Blue Cross, Healthnet, Kaiser, Medical, Medicare, EAP or any other health insurance company aside from Cigna, United Healthcare, Optum or Oscar.* In an effort to be fair, I offer a sliding scale based on your or your family’s gross income as stated on the first page of the previous year’s tax return. I charge .1% of your annual income per session with a floor of $250 and a ceiling of $400 per session (not per hour).
