Investment in Therapy

Invest in yourself, Heal from the past, Move forward 

You are worth it

My Fee

Therapy is an investment of time, energy, and money. My fee is $225 for 50-minute individual counseling sessions. Sessions occur weekly or every 2 weeks depending on your schedule and needs. I do not work with insurance companies. 

EMDR intensive sessions are $225 per hour of the intensive. We will discuss your specific needs when determining the length of any intensive sessions before scheduling.

Why is this investment worth it? 

Your mental health is complex and requires specialized treatment and care. I have the experience and training to meet your needs. Many people use insurance to pay some or all of the cost of their therapy, which makes sense! However, insurance companies' involvement doesn’t stop at paying the bill. They require therapists to meet rigid guidelines to ensure coverage. This often stifles the therapy process and does not allow me to treat you, only to follow their formula. I want to work with you, not for them. 

Private pay means complete privacy. 

Paying privately for therapy is a good option for individuals who may have concerns about their mental health struggles becoming known to their employer or others. Paying out of pocket ensures that you retain control over who knows you’re receiving mental health care and when, if ever. Desiring privacy around your care does not mean you feel shame about doing the work of therapy; it is a natural protective instinct as you work through your most vulnerable thoughts and feelings. Some things don’t need to be shared.

I keep my caseload small so I can serve you best.

I have made a commitment to be present and ready to work, and I ask you to do the same. Most therapists in group practices see 30-40 clients each week to meet practice quotas and earn a living. After participating in that model for years, I have learned that quality therapy cannot be delivered hour after hour for 30+ hours each week. As a result, my clients were not getting the best of me, meaning their treatment took longer.

Now, I choose to work with a small number of clients at any given time so that I can invest as fully in you as you are in me, including spending time outside of sessions on continuing education, training, reading, and preparing for our time together.
 

 We are entering into a partnership. I’m completely committed to you; I ask you to be equally invested.

Cancellation Policy

You will be charged the full fee for canceled or rescheduled sessions with less than 24 hours notice.

In case of emergency or unavoidable disruption, we can discuss options to avoid the fee; however, this is not guaranteed.
