INTAKE
$250 / 80-minute session
Our work together begins with an extended session called an intake. This extra time allows us to get acquainted, review clinical boundaries, and address any questions you might have. We’ll also establish treatment goals, and you’ll start sharing your story in whatever way makes sense to you.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
$210 / 60-minute session
Because consistent attendance is essential for effective psychotherapy, I hold sessions on a weekly basis, at the minimum. By making this regular commitment to themselves, my clients are able to take full advantage of the therapeutic process and actively work towards their goals.
Appointments are scheduled to occur at the same time every week, and your appointment time is held exclusively for you. You are financially responsible for each of your appointments, regardless of whether you attend; you are not responsible for the fee if I am unable to attend, and I will provide you with advanced notice of my scheduled absences.
Sessions are held for 60 minutes, rather than the standard 45-minute psychotherapy hour, to allow for more nuanced exploration. My hope is that we can dig deep, reflect, and give your major life questions the unhurried attention they deserve.
Payment Methods
I accept payment by cash and major credit cards. Clients have also successfully used HSA cards to cover treatment.
By paying out of pocket, you are afforded greater privacy and control over your time in therapy. Insurance companies require a clinical diagnosis for reimbursement, and many will request additional information about your treatment so that they can determine the number and types of sessions that they will cover. It’s also possible that the information collected by your insurance provider will be incorporated into your medical history and affect your future rates & coverage.
By opting for private pay, you get to decide what you are working on and for how long, and you can explore your experience without attaching a diagnostic label.
If you decide to seek insurance reimbursement, I can provide you with a super-bill. I encourage you to determine your out-of-network (OON) coverage before the first session.
