Payment Information

Patient Payment and Virtual Appointments

Cost and value of therapy

We invest our resources in those things we value most, our relationships, our homes, our cars, our experiences, our health, our peace of mind.  When the transmission or the plumbing isn't working as it should, we find the right professional to fix it.
When something in your life causes distress, it may be time to prioritize your values to include therapy. Consider the value of living without anxiety, or depression, or an unhappy relationship.

My Fees

​are competitive with other licensed therapists who have similar experience:
Initial diagnostic session - $185
50 minutes - $145
75 minutes - $210

Patients may pay for their sessions via Zelle transfer. Payment is expected at the time of the appointment. 



Insurance

I do not accept payment from third party payors, including Medicare or Medicaid.​ Private pay means that I am able to ensure your confidentiality, something I value highly. It also means we will not be limited by when or how often or for how long we can work together. Those are decisions you and I make together instead of relying on decisions made by an insurance company.

Other Third Party Monitors

I don't work with any third party monitors. If you need supervision, evaluation or monitoring by a court or employer, you will need to find a forensic psychologist. 

Cancelled Appointments
               

I reserve our sessions to attend only to you.  An appointment that is not cancelled (a "no show" or late cancel) means that someone else was not able to receive care at that time and you will be charged the full rate. You can avoid this charge by cancelling your appointment at least 24 hours in advance.
Video Sessions

​For all the inconveniences we have faced throughout the COVID-19 shutdown, one positive is that it has opened the door for virtual therapy sessions to clients who haven't considered it before. It is less time-consuming than leaving their work  home in the middle of the day to come to my office. I am delighted we have been tossed unexpectedly into a new, more convenient way to continue or begin therapy.
My contract with a secure, encrypted, HIPAA-compliant service, allows us to continue therapy when your work schedule is tight. Take advantage of this new positive.
