RATES AND INSURANCE

My rates for both individual and couples/relationship counseling are:

Standard therapy appointments (50 minutes) - $175.00

Initial Evaluation (75 minutes) - $220.00

I may be willing to negotiate a fee adjustment based upon an established sliding scale structure in order to make therapy more affordable. I have a limited number of slots for this; please give me a call to discuss this option. 

The first task of therapy is to work together to develop a plan. During your initial appointment, we will discuss presenting concerns and collaboratively identify goals of therapy. Subsequently, I typically meet weekly or biweekly with clients, although the frequency may decrease or increase given a client's specific needs.

I am an out-of-network provider and will provide you with receipts that contain all of the necessary information to apply for possible reimbursement from your health insurance provider. Please know that you will be responsible for the fee at the time of our appointments, and a proportion of the fee may then be reimbursed to you through your insurance plan. Before our first session, please contact your insurance company to find out your specific benefits regarding out-of-network coverage. I recommend asking about the following about your coverage:

• What is my annual deductible for outpatient mental health, and how much of it has been met this year?

• Are my medical and mental health/behavioral health deductibles separate?

• During the calendar year, how many sessions does my policy cover?

• What paperwork or forms do I need to submit for sessions to be covered?

• Is approval or pre-authorization required before my sessions will be covered?

During our initial phone call, I will be happy to answer any questions you have about fees, insurance reimbursement, and payment options. Please note that you can also use your FSA/HRA/HSA accounts to cover the cost of services.
