Investment
Individual, couple, and family sessions run 45-60 minutes with the average session at 50 minutes.
Private-Pay Fee Structure (simple & transparent):
My private-pay rate is $100 per 25 minutes of therapy time:
Session Length Fee Typical Use
25 minutes $100 Brief check-in, focused follow-up
50 minutes $200 Standard individual or couples session
75 minutes $300 Extended EMDR, trauma/attachment work, or couples
Timing & Billing
Sessions begin and end at the scheduled time. If a session extends beyond the original appointment, the fee adjusts in 25-minute increments.
Superbills & Insurance Reimbursement (if you plan to submit)
Upon request, I can provide a superbill – an itemized receipt that you may submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement. A superbill includes: your name, date and length of session, CPT code, diagnosis code (if applicable, and the fee paid. Insurance CPT codes use fixed time ranges and may not match this practice’s flexible increments. I assign CPT codes according to session duration:
CPT Code Insurance Time Range Description
90832 16-37 minutes Psychotherapy, 30 minutes
90834 38-52 minutes Psychotherapy, 45 minutes
90837 53 minutes+ Psychotherapy, 60 minutes
Payment
Payment is due at the time of service. I accept credit/debit cards, HSA/FSA cards, and secure portal payments.
Sliding Scale
A limited number of sliding-scale spots are available based on financial need and clinical appropriateness. Please inquire if cost presents a barrier to care.
Good Faith Estimate Notice
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to provide a good faith estimate of expected charges for items and services to individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. 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 expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a 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. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
