Asking for help can feel daunting, regardless of whether we are new to therapy or are well-seasoned in self-exploration. I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental and open-minded reflection  and reshaping to advance your goals. Feeling newly seen and heard can be powerful and motivating. Humor and lightness also have their place.

I am not enrolled with insurance plans. There are long and short answers to this question, and for me, the most important factors revolve around ethics and confidentiality. I do, however accept other forms of payment on a per session basis, including many HSAs. Most people prefer debit/credit cards, though others choose to pay with cash, checks, or venmo.

A superbill may be provided if you would like to self-file with insurance.

My standard rate for individual counseling is $110 per session. For couples and relational therapy my standard rate is $140 per session. Most sessions are 50 minutes, though for marriage or couples counseling, some clients prefer 90 minutes or even longer. My standard fee for 90 minutes is $189 per session and I similarly prorate longer sessions. 

A sliding scale may be available where cost is an issue, please call to discuss.

I have found the best way to get to know each other, and explore your specific situation in confidence, is to arrange a complimentary phone consultation - usually 15-20 minutes. 

After that, I would forward you a link to my web-based practice management platform where you can electronically complete the intake forms and acknowledgements. In person paper forms are also an option for those who prefer.

This is completely up to clients. For some, weekly sessions make the most sense. For others, bi-weekly or once a month check-ins feel more appropriate. I do strongly believe that therapeutic results decrease if we meet less than once every other week. Similarly, some people find solutions to their concerns within five or six sessions, while for others longer work together feels more appropriate. Initial "relief" and deeper change are also two different things for most clients - let's follow your lead.
