Payment Options

Fees
Individual Therapy

For individual clients, I charge $150 per 50-minute session and $190 per 90-minute session. 

 

Couples Therapy

For couples therapy, I charge $190 per 50-minute session and $230 per 90-minute session. 

​

Remote Therapy and Consultations

My fees for teletherapy or consultations are the same as for face-to-face sessions. Payment is required prior to the session taking place and may be made by credit card or via Paypal.

 

In-Home Therapy

If you would like me to provide therapy in your home, please contact me directly for a fees quote.

​

Discounts

On occasion, I can offer fees based on a sliding scale starting at $80 per 50-minute session. These fees apply to therapy provided in my office, via telephone, or Skype.

Insurance

In order to protect my clients' personal and confidential information, I have chosen not to accept insurance. This allows my clients and I to work together without restrictions imposed by insurance companies as to the number of sessions we may have or the modes of therapy we may use.

 

If you have insurance through a PPO, they may pay for therapy sessions with an out-of-network provider such as myself. If so, I will provide you with a monthly statement that you can present to them for reimbursement (or to apply to your annual deductible). If they do not cover the full cost of the services with which I provide you, you will be responsible for any balance due to me.

Payment Options

I accept the following forms of payment:

​

  • Cash

  • Check (payable to "Affirming Therapy")

  • Credit card

  • Debit card

  • Health Savings Account

  • Paypal (to AffirmingTherapyOC@aol.com)

​Scheduling

While sessions are usually scheduled on a weekly basis, some clients are unable to make such a commitment. For those presenting with less-serious, non-critical problems, a session every-other week can be extremely beneficial. Clients may schedule a 90-minute session either once or twice a month. If this arrangement sounds appealing to you, please let me know and I will provide you with a schedule that meets your needs.
