Rates for Individual and Couples Therapy
"Many of the things you can count, don't count. Many of the things you can't count, really count."
~ Albert Einstein
Fees and Payments
Payments:
Please pay at the beginning of the session - I prefer the balance of the session to be spent focusing on you. I accept checks, Venmo, cash, or credit cards. If you wish to pay by credit card, an added cost of up to $5 may apply. I will be happy to set up credit card payments at our initial session.
50-minute sessions are $160
Longer sessions are optimal for couple's therapy.
75 minutes (1.5 sessions) is $240.
100 minutes (a double session) is $300.
The provision for an adjusted fee as described above also applies to these sessions.
Insurance
I do not take insurance because I believe that psychotherapy should be a confidential and private process. Your psychotherapeutic progress and evaluations of the challenges you face are best worked in a collaborative and private manner between the two of us.
Insurance providers will require that you be diagnosed with a mental health disorder, which will become permanent on your medical records. This not only compromises your privacy and confidentiality, but it may also impact your future eligibility and cost if you wish to make a change in your insurance.
If you want to use your insurance and your insurance company reimburses for out-of-network providers, I will provide you with an invoice that you can submit for reimbursement.
Cancellation Policy
Please call 48 business day hours in advance to cancel an appointment. You will be charged your full fee for any missed appointment without a 48-business-day-hour notice of cancellation.
