Rates & FAQs

What are your rates?

I charge $250 for all intake (first) sessions. I charge $200 per 50-minute session. The fee for couples and families is $260 per 50-minute session. We can discuss longer sessions if desired and clinically appropriate.   

What are your accepted ways of payment?

I accept payment via cash, debit or credit card, HSA or FSA card at the beginning of each session.  

I accept payment via a debit or credit card for online therapy services, which will be on file.  

Do you accept insurance?

I do accept some insurances (Optum, Aetna) at this time. However, if you receive Out-of-network (OON) benefits from your insurance coverage, I can offer a receipt with appropriate details for you to request reimbursement from your insurance carrier if applicable.

Why can’t you bill my insurance?

I have been on many insurance panels and billed my clients’ insurance. Unfortunately, I have seen too many occasions where my clients still found that they were responsible for the entire bill even after I had adequately completed the insurance paperwork.  

Given the nature of insurance and how the carriers can drive treatment, I’ve chosen to accept some insurance and also have many clients who choose to waive their use of insurance. This allows me to offer more individual care to each client.

What if I can’t afford your rate?

Don’t let my rate discourage you from contacting me. Even if we cannot work together, I have been able to refer potential clients to therapists who may be able to accommodate your financial situation. 

How long will I be in therapy?

I don’t know. Some clients come in to work on a specific need and find that a few sessions are sufficient. In contrast, other clients choose to continue long-term (approximately over 20 sessions).  

Often, folks continue to work with me through additional items that arise throughout the therapeutic journey. There is no correct answer; however, we will collaborate together to help you make the best choice for yourself on the journey to wellness.
