Getting to know Valerie Ortega

Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California, and I have been working with adults, families, and children for over 15 years. I help clients from all walks of life navigate the challenges of stress, anxiety, and unexpected life events. Whether working with individuals dealing with anxiety, couples seeking better communication, or families adjusting to major transitions, my goal is always to empower clients to improve their overall quality of life and achieve lasting, meaningful change. I accept cash payments via HSA/FSA accounts and can provide you with a Superbill to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement of each session. I do not accept insurance.

In-network insurances

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
