Rates and Policies
Understanding the details of therapy is important.
Below is information about my rates, payment options, and the policies that help guide our work together. Reach out for any questions.
-
I am currently in-network with Aetna and Cigna. For all other insurance providers, services are considered out-of-network and require payment out of pocket.
-
If you plan to use Aetna or Cigna insurance, please check your coverage details directly with your provider before your first appointment. If paying out-of-pocket, the fees are:
50-minute per session
$165 for individual therapy
$185 for couples therapy
$185 for family therapy
90-minute per session
$335 for couples therapy
$335 for family therapy
If financial concerns are a barrier, I am committed to working with you to find solutions. A sliding-scale fee (i.e., a reduced rate) is available for those who qualify. Please contact me to discuss options.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining the expected cost of care. Healthcare providers are required by law to offer an estimate for medical items and services if you are paying out-of-pocket or not using insurance. You are entitled to receive this estimate in writing at least one business day before the service is rendered. Additionally, if you receive a bill that is $400 more than the Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the charge. Be sure to keep a copy of your estimate for your records.
For more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.

Payment is due at the time of service. Acceptable forms of payment include major credit cards, such as American Express, Discover, Mastercard, and Visa. For out-of-pocket billing, the credit card on file will be charged automatically. For insurance billing, claims will be submitted directly on your behalf. If applicable, you are responsible for copays, coinsurance, or deductibles based on your specific plan. These costs will be charged to the card on file after your insurance has processed the claim. All invoices and receipts are available for your review directly in the client portal.
-
Please notify me by phone at least 24 hours before your appointment if you need to cancel or reschedule. Cancellations made with less than 24-hour notice will incur a fee of 50% of the session rate. As a courtesy, the fee for your first late cancellation will be waived. However, the fee will apply to subsequent late cancellations. Failure to attend your appointment without prior notice (i.e., a no-show) will incur a fee of 50% of the session rate for the first occurrence and 100% of the session rate for subsequent no-shows. The credit card on file will be charged for late cancellation and no-show fees in accordance with this policy, without exception.
-
Please notify me immediately by phone if you are running late for your appointment and provide an estimated arrival time. Appointments will only be honored if you arrive within 15 minutes of the scheduled start time. Upon arrival, the session will conclude at the originally scheduled time without extension. Arriving more than 15 minutes late may be treated as a no-show and subject to the no-show fee. If you arrive late or choose to end the session early for any reason, the full session rate will still apply. The credit card on file will be charged in accordance with this policy, without exception.
