Fees & Policies
Individual therapy: $250 for a 45-minute psychotherapy session.
Have PPO insurance? Many clients are able to use their out-of-network benefits to receive partial reimbursement for therapy. I offer both traditional superbills and a streamlined reimbursement option through Thrizer to make using your benefits as simple as possible.
As an out-of-network provider, I'm able to offer care that is tailored to your individual needs rather than insurance requirements, allowing for greater privacy, flexibility, and personalization in treatment.
Learn more about using out-of-network benefits on the Using Out-of-Network Insurance Benefits page.
Payment Methods
I accept the following forms of payment:
Debit cards
Credit cards
Health Savings Account (HSA) cards
Flexible Spending Account (FSA) cards
Because sessions are conducted via telehealth, payment is processed securely through the client portal at the time of each session.
Cancellations & Late Arrivals
If you need to cancel or reschedule, please let me know at least 48 hours in advance. Cancellations made within 48 hours of your scheduled appointment, as well as missed sessions, will be charged the full session fee.
Sessions begin and end at the scheduled time. If you arrive late, we'll use the remaining time available for your session, and the full session fee will still apply.
FMLA, Disability, and Other Paperwork Requests
If you ever need documentation such as FMLA, disability, or other official forms, I’m happy to help when appropriate. These requests require careful review and documentation outside of session time, so there’s a separate fee for this service.
Rates
Paperwork and administrative time are billed in 15-minute increments, with a minimum of 15 minutes per document. The rate is based on my current 45-minute session fee, prorated in 15-minute increments. You’ll always be charged according to my current session rate at the time of your request.
What’s Included
This fee covers time spent:
Reviewing your clinical records
Completing forms or writing letters
Communicating with HR, insurance, or other third parties (when requested)
Preparing releases of information or coordinating care outside of session time
Eligibility and Timing
To make sure I can accurately and ethically complete official forms, I typically require at least four therapy sessions before considering any paperwork requests. Completion of forms isn’t guaranteed—it depends on whether your clinical presentation supports the request.
If your leave is approved, weekly sessions are recommended during your time away from work to support your ongoing care.
Turnaround Time
Once payment is received, forms are usually completed within five business days (Monday–Friday). I’ll always let you know the estimated time needed before getting started.
Good Faith Estimate Notice
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under the law, healthcare 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.
