Information Up Front

I strive to be upfront, genuine, and honest, especially with my fees. I do my best to provide you with all the information you could possibly need prior to scheduling your first appointment. However, if I have missed something, please feel free to email, message, or call me- information you can find below.

Regular Sessions

The initial individual session / consultation covers 60-90 minutes (depending on how much time we need). Full session fees cover 50-minutes and half-session fees cover 25-minutes. I understand we may go over a few minutes on occasion. Your session slot fills 60 minutes (30 minutes for half sessions) to account for these occurrences and allow me time to write your notes.

Sliding Scale Fees

Financial constraints should not exclude you from receiving help when you really need it. I do have sliding scale options to help those who may have difficulties paying for a full session fee. I accomplish this through the Open Path Psychotherapy Collective.

My sliding scale fee for individual Open Path clients is $70 for one 50-minute session. I am only able to accept a limited number of Open Path clients. Please check my profile to see if I have any openings.

*If you are an Open Path Client, please provide your email or member ID associated with your membership to receive discounted session services.

Another option is scheduling a half-session instead of a full session to cut down cost. Half sessions are 25 minutes as opposed to a full 50-minute session. For regular half-sessions, the fee is $50, and for sliding scale (Open Path) half-sessions the fee is $30.

Packages

Packages are another money-saving option for those who know in advance they will want or need more time in treatment. Package rates are listed below:

Individual 6-Session Package: $561
Individual 12-Session Package: $1,122
Couples 6-Session Package: $765
Couples 12-Session Package: $1530

Good Faith Estimate

You have a right to a Good Faith Estimate of services, which you can read more about here.

Payment for Fees

Cash and all major credit cards are accepted.

Cancellation / No Show Fees

Cancelling and rescheduling sessions is fine but must be done at least 24 hours in advance.

Cancellations and re-scheduled session will be subject to a full charge if not received at least 24 hours in advance. This is necessary because a time commitment is made to you and is held exclusively for you. If you are late for a session, you may lose some of that session time.

Insurance

I do not accept insurance at this time. Click here to read more. However, if you would like to apply for out of network benefits, I can provide you with a detailed superbill to submit to your insurance company.
