First sessions for individuals and couples are 80 minutes.  After that, we can assess the frequency and length of future sessions.  Typically, couples meet for 80 minute sessions and individual appointments are 50 minutes.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your mental health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your mental health care provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a session. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit cms.gov/nosurprise.

Disclaimer:

It is not possible for a mental health therapist to know, in advance, how many sessions may be necessary or appropriate for a given client. Therefore, the GFE cost estimate is only an estimate; it isn’t an offer or contract for services, nor does it obligate you to receive services with my practice.

Since the scheduling of an appointment involves the reservation of times specifically for you, a minimum of 48 hours notice is required for re-scheduling or canceling an appointment. Late cancellations as well as no show appointments are charged at full fee.
