  • I charge $170/per hour. A 90 minute appointment is $255 and a 2 hour session is $340.

  • No. In order to provide the most effective and high quality services, I do not work directly with any insurance companies. All appointments are considered fee-for-service, meaning you are expected to pay for the appointment fee at the time of service. My fees are competitive with specialist rates in the area.

    I am a Non-Participating Provider with BCBS and an Out of Network provider with other insurance providers. All of my services are private pay - with a credit card, FSA, or HSA. I am happy to provide you with the necessary paperwork (superbill / receipt) for you to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement for a portion of the session fee.
