Rates & Payment

 

Session Rates

Individual sessions are $200 and typically last 45 minutes.

Longer sessions are available for couples and families as needed.

*I offer private pay and out-of-network insurance options.

What are the benefits of private pay?

When using insurance, therapists are required to provide a mental health diagnosis and submit client records or treatment updates to justify ongoing care.

 

By paying privately:

  • No diagnosis is required to begin therapy

  • Your records stay completely confidential — nothing is shared with insurance

  • Therapy is fully personalized — we’re not limited by insurance rules about session length, frequency, or treatment focus

Insurance & Reimbursement Option:

​I am considered an out-of-network provider. Many insurance plans offer coverage for out-of-network therapy. If you're unsure whether your plan includes out-of-network benefits, feel free to reach out — I'm happy to help you check.
