Frequently Asked Questions
As you start to walk on the way, the way appears. Clarity doesn't come before action. It comes from action.

Do you accept insurance?
No, but I can provide a monthly super-bill that you will submit to your insurance for reimbursement. Most insurance will reimburse a percentage of the session fee
What is your cancellation policy?
All clients are asked to cancel no later than 48 hours prior to their appointment time. I do this to honor my focus in each session, rather than attending to administrative changes each day.
What is your rate?
A standard therapy session is 50 minutes long. My fee is $165 per session, $180 for couples session.
Do you offer sliding scale rates?
Yes. I keep a few slots a week at my sliding scale rate. However sometimes they are all taken and I will not be able to offer additional ones.
What is your intake process like?
My intake process takes about 2-4 sessions. I will conduct an in-depth assessment to see how I best can support you. We will get to know each other and set up goals to work towards. During this time we will also figure out if I am the best fit for you or if you need other resources.
Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost ("medical care" includes servcies provided by psychologists and psychotherapists).
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
