New Patients


 

Welcome!

My goal is to make sure all new patients feel welcome, safe, and understood. I work with children (ages 10 and up) and adults. I offer therapy in English or Spanish.

When it comes to working with children and adolescents, I offer appointments for children 10 years and up, and parent-focused appointments for parents of children of all ages. I have experience working with a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, peer problems, and family conflict. For families who are concerned about signs of ADHD, I offer targeted testing to evaluate for the presence of ADHD.

When it comes to working with adults, I offer individual appointments tailored to your unique goals. Whether you are looking for ways to improve your mood, better manage your anxiety, or work through a difficult phase of life we will create a treatment plan to address your specific needs.

The first step is an initial phone call to make sure that I am the right therapist with the appropriate skill set to help you. To schedule an initial 30 minute telephone consultation, call or text (415) 233-7990 or email me at nicolas@drnicolaschu.com.

The second step is to schedule an in-person appointment. During your first visit we will spend our time discussing your background and what kind of change you are looking for from therapy. From there, we will discuss an initial treatment plan that we think will help you achieve your goals. At the start of treatment, we typically schedule appointments every week or every other week.

 

I do not accept insurance, but am happy to provide a detailed receipt which can be used to seek partial reimbursement from many insurance plans
