Insurance

Services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:

  • Do I have mental health insurance benefits?
  • What is my deductible and has it been met?
  • How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
  • What is the coverage amount per therapy session?
  • Is approval required from my primary care physician?

Fee Reduction

While we offer some lower fee slots for those experiencing hardship or with reduced incomes, we prefer to hold these slots for current clients who are experiencing life transitions during our work together. If we cannot accommodate your financial situation, we can provide you with referrals.


Payment

Cash, checks, and all major credit cards are accepted for payment.


Lateness and Cancellations

When we schedule with each other, we hold your appointment time specifically for you and you alone. While emergencies happen from time to time, it can be challenging to fill your last-minute canceled session on short notice. To help us commit to our work together, we charge a $175.00 cancellation fee for appointments canceled with less than 48 hours' notice (unless we can find another time that week that works for us both). Psychotherapy can be challenging, and when we hit a difficult place together, it can feel easier to avoid coming into treatment. We prefer to speak about this intentionally rather than canceling sessions.


After Hours Sessions

Some patients request sessions outside of regular therapy hours (after hours or on a weekend). Our therapists are occasionally able to accommodate a limited number of these requests. Just so you know, there may be an additional fee assessed for weekend or after hours meetings.


Requests for Records

75¢ per page for the first 25 pages, 50¢ per page for pages 26-100, and 25¢ per page for each page over 100, with a minimum fee of $10.

Attendance in Court

Clients are discouraged from having their therapist subpoenaed.  Even though you are responsible for the testimony fee, it does not mean that the testimony will be solely in your favor. Therapists  can only testify to the facts of the case and to the professional opinion.

  1. Preparation time (including submission of records): $220/hr
  2. Phone calls: $220/hr
  3. Depositions: $250/hour
  4. Time required in giving testimony: $250/hour
  5. Mileage: $0.40/mile
  6. Time away from office due to depositions or testimony: $220/hour
  7. All attorney fees and costs incurred by the therapist as a result of the legal action.
  8. Filing a document with the court: $100
  9. The minimum charge for a court appearance: $1500

A retainer of $1500 is due in advance. If a subpoena or notice to meet attorney(s) is received without a minimum of 48-hour notice there will be an additional $250 “express” charge. Also, if the case is reset with less than 72 business hours notice, then the client will be charged $500 (in addition to the retainer of $1500).
