Payment Info

My therapy with clients is completely private pay (meaning I don’t work with any insurance networks). This ensures maximum confidentiality, flexibility in treatment approach and length of  treatment. Although I don’t accept insurance for payment, I am “insurance ready,” meaning that I will provide you with the paperwork necessary (e.g., receipts, insurance codes) so that you can seek reimbursement on your own. You’ll need to check with your plan to determine what kind of reimbursement is possible with me as an “out of network” provider. You may also be able to use dollars from your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) if your employer offers this benefit. 

Payment for sessions is expected at the end of each session. A discounted rate is offered when working with individuals or couples – instead of the pay-as-you-go rate, there is a discounted rate when the first three sessions are paid at the end of the first session. Payment can be made by cash, check, or credit card.

Fees for therapy

The return on investment and value of therapy can be immeasurable, as its goal is to improve your life, relationships, health, and overall well-being. 

90-minute Individual or Couples Counseling: $240 if sessions are paid for one at a time, or a discounted rate of $210/session when the first three sessions are paid for at the end of the first session. Note then when working with children, I will often start with a 90-minute session and the shift to 60-minute sessions. The first session is $240 and the 60-minute sessions are $160.

60-minute Individual session, Parent Coaching, or Parent Mediation: $160 per session.

60-minute Court-Ordered Reunification or Court-Involved Family Therapy: $220/session. Note that a Reunification Intervention Agreement and a Fee Agreement are required for reunification therapy. Court-involved family therapy requires a Fee Agreement. These agreements specify the sharing of fees as well as payment terms for professional activities outside of sessions. 

Parenting Consulting: $250 per hour. These meetings are typically 90 minutes in person (individual or joint meetings) plus 30 minutes for paper work and documentation, and the cost is shared between the two co-parents. A retainer of $2000 is required to initiate the Parenting Consulting process ($1000 from each co-parent). Please refer to the Fee Agreement for Parenting Consulting for more details.

Mediation: $250 per hour. The cost is shared between the two people seeking the mediation.

Please note that any time preparing for or appearing in court is charged at 1.5 times the hourly rate.

These fees are current as of January 1, 2020.
