Fees and Appointment Times
My fee is $200 for new and returning individual clients for the standard 45-50-minute session.
My fee for couple therapy for new and returning clients is based on time scheduled– 90 minutes is $340 – 75 minutes is $280 –and 60 minutes is $225. Most initial assessment sessions for couples are scheduled for 75 minutes. Note..no initial assessment sessions will be scheduled for less than 75 minutes, nor will on-going sessions be less than 60 minutes. This clinical decision is based on my years of experience in determining the best effective time for couple sessions to be productive.
Intensive half day or full day sessions may be scheduled as needed for couples in crisis from loss, betrayal, or for those who are on the “brink” of divorce. Please email me if you wish to discuss whether such an intensive session might meet your needs.
In most cases, for couples therapy to be most productive, weekly sessions are recommended, especially in the early and mid-phases of the work. The length of sessions, and the frequency of sessions, will be best decided collaboratively between the three of us after the initial assessment phase, usually during session 3 or 4. Length of treatment varies, and depends a lot on the amount of commitment and time each member of the couple makes to work on assignments and make recommended changes in-between the therapy sessions.
Payment for services is requested at the time of the services. I accept cash, checks, Visa and MasterCard, and Venmo at this time. Monthly billing arrangements are available upon request.
