How long will it take for me to feel better?
Our goal is to help you get even a small amount of relief within a few sessions. It also depends on what is contributing to your anxiety, depression or distress, and how active you are in trying strategies we talk about. People have worked with us from 6 months to 1+ year.
What if I realize therapy with you isn’t working for me?
Let’s talk about it. We’ll figure out a plan, whether it’s continuing to work with one of us using a different modality of treatment, making a repair, or referring you out to a different provider or type of service.
Is this kind of therapy right for me?
We do not subscribe to any one model solely. We have found over the years that every model has its benefits and every individual responds differently to them. We work with you to find the most effective approach for you. See our About Page information for more detail on modalities we use.
What are your rates?
Individual Therapy: $325 for 60-minute Initial Assessment; $260 for weekly 45-minute follow up sessions.
Family Therapy: $350 for 60-minute Initial Assessment; $300 for weekly 60-minute follow-up sessions.
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept payment via cash (in-person only), check (in-person only), debit or credit card, HSA or FSA card. Payment must be made at the end of each session.
Do you take insurance?
We do not accept insurance. However if you receive any Out of Network (OON) benefits from your insurance provider, you may be reimbursed anywhere from 50-80% of the cost. We can provide a monthly receipt with necessary details for you to request reimbursement from your insurance carrier.
Good Faith Estimate
The No Surprises Act (H.R. 133), effective January 1st, 2022, requires that health care providers provide an estimate of the bill for any medical items or services, to clients or patients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. The Good Faith Estimate shows the costs of items and services that are reasonably expected for your health care needs for an item or service. The estimate is based on information known at the time the estimate was created. The Good Faith Estimate does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. You could be charged more if complications or special circumstances occur. If this happens, federal law allows you to dispute (appeal) the bill.
If you receive a bill that is more than $400 than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill. You may contact the health care provider or facility listed to let them know the billed charges are higher than the Good Faith Estimate. You can ask them to update the bill to match the Good Faith Estimate, ask to negotiate the bill, or ask if there is financial assistance available.
You may also start a dispute resolution process with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). If you choose to use the dispute resolution process, you must start the dispute process within 120 calendar days (about 4 months) of the date on the original bill. There is a $25 fee to use the dispute process. If the agency reviewing your dispute agrees with you, you will have to pay the price on this Good Faith Estimate. If the agency disagrees with you and agrees with the health care provider or facility, you will have to pay the higher amount.
Your health care provider must give you a Good Faith Estimate within the following timeframes:
If the service is scheduled at least three business days before the appointment date, no later than one business day after the date of scheduling;
If the service is scheduled at least 10 business days before the appointment date, no later than three business days after the date of scheduling; or
If the uninsured or self-pay patient requests a good faith estimate (without scheduling the service), no later than three business days after the date of the request. A new good faith estimate must be provided, within the specified timeframes if the patient reschedules the requested item or service.
The Good Faith Estimate is not a contract and does not require you to obtain the items or services from this provider.
