Fees &
Insurance

Individual and couple therapy sessions are $200 an hour - $300 for an hour-and-a-half. Please note that in my practice "an hour" is 60 minutes long and an hour-and-a-half is 90 minutes. I also offer 3-hour or 6-hour intensive appointments by arrangement. The price for these sessions is also $200 per hour.

I have an unusual cancellation policy so please note. Cancellations within the 24 hour period prior to a scheduled session will be charged at the full price. Cancellations within a week of a scheduled appointment, but more than 24 hours from the appointment are charged at half of the full price. If you call with less than a week’s notice and I am able to reschedule your appointment for the same week, you will be charged only for the appointment — no cancellation charge. Charges are not dependent on the reason for a cancellation.

Group therapy prices depend on the group and are listed on the group policies form below. 

I do not bill insurance directly. If you would like to seek reimbursement from your insurance company I will provide a statement every six weeks or so and you can file for reimbursement from the company. 

Please note that while I am on the Blue Cross preferred provider panel, I am not currently accepting new clients as a panel provider.  If you have Blue Cross I will provide you with a statement so that you can seek reimbursement as above.
