How much does a session cost?
My standard fee for a session is $200 for individuals and $230 for mediation sessions. I offer sliding scale fees using a tiered system. If my fee is a barrier to obtaining services, please use my Contact Form to get in touch and let me know what is affordable for you.
All sessions are 50-60 minutes.
Payment is expected at the time of the scheduled session.
Do you offer sliding scale?
I strongly believe that everybody has a right to accessible mental health care. I do my best to provide services that are not cost-prohibitive. When I have the capacity to do so, I will work with individual clients on an income-based sliding scale.
I do not offer reduced fee rates for clients who schedule sessions more than three weeks apart. Please let me know if you need a reduced fee, and we can try to negotiate something that is affordable for you.
Please email me with any questions or my Contact Form to get in touch and let me know what is affordable for you. I’m happy to work with you to keep therapy affordable.
Do you accept insurance?
I am currently a private-pay, out-of-network provider. While I don’t accept insurance directly, your insurance plan may have out-of-network benefits, which means that they will reimburse you for portion of our session cost. You can use Thrizer to verify your out-of-network benefits and submit superbills. They will manage the reimbursement process end-to-end for you to save you the insurance headache. Once you meet your deductible, you can request an instant reimbursement to skip the insurance wait or receive reimbursements in a few weeks via direct deposit. You can create an account and get started at www.thrizer.com.
If you’re unsure of whether your insurance plan offers out-of-network benefits for counseling services, I can use their benefit verification tool to check for you. Just send me an email letting me know you need to verify your benefits. I will need photos/copies of the front and back of your insurance card to verify benefits.
Check out Thrizer.com for more information, or fill out my Contact Form to get in touch with any questions!
Once you have your Superbill from me, you can to let Thrizer take care of the reimbursement process.

Do you offer recommendation letters?
Yes, I am available to write recommendation letters to support clients seeking:
- Gender-affirming medical interventions such as HRT and surgery
- Emotional Support Animal letters
- Accommodations in the workplace or school under ADA (the Americans with Disabilities Act)
I charge $50 for active clients and $100 for inactive clients.
To be considered an active client, you must have scheduled and attended a session within the last 90 days.
What is your cancellation policy?
I require at least 48 hours notice for rescheduling or cancellation (unless rescheduled within the same week).
If I am given between 24 and 48 hours notice, I charge half the agreed up on fee. If I am given less than 24 hours notice, I will charge the full fee.
