Fees + Insurance Information

Like most specialized PhD-level psychologists, I am not an in-network insurance provider. Upon request, I can provide documentation so that you can file with your insurance company for out-of-network reimbursement. 
​
The cost of the 
initial intake consultation is $395 (75 minutes).
At this time, we will discuss the specific challenges you are facing. We'll also talk about your specific goals and a detailed treatment plan to help you meet them. See our FAQs for more details about what you can expect at your first appointment. 

​Follow-up therapy appointments are $295 per session (50 minutes).
​Typically, we'll meet on a weekly basis, but scheduling varies depending on each person's needs.
