Appointments

Appointments are available throughout the day, evenings, and weekends by office visits, phone, or online video sessions. My office spaces are designed to ensure your privacy and confidentiality. My clients prefer sessions in my office locations. I adhere to a 24-hour cancellation policy.

Payment Information

My fee is $425 per 50-minute contact hour (for non-Court involved counseling services), and $475 per hour for Court-involved therapy. For more specialized services such as Court-ordered family therapy involving Parent Child Contact Problems and legal-related matters, including mediation, child custody evaluations, brief focused assessments, emergency screenings, and strategic consultation in family law matters my fee is $500 per hour. I charge a higher hourly fee when providing Court reports, testimony in Court and/or at a deposition, and in other legal matters when my services involve communicating directly with the Court as outlined in my Addendum to Informed Consent, which is available in the forms section of my website. I offer sliding-scale and pro bono services on a limited basis for clients who qualify. Fees for counseling also include peripheral services such as phone calls, emails, text messages, collaboration with other professionals involved in your care (with your signed consent), document review, and written correspondence when indicated. All therapeutic services, including Court ordered therapy, are based on a 50-minute clinical hour.

I accept cash, check, or credit cards. Payment is expected at the time of your session.

Please Note: 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 read more about Good Faith Estimates here >>

Billing/Insurance Information

I am an out-of-network provider for all insurance companies. Some insurance companies provide partial reimbursement for out-of-network providers. I can provide you with a monthly statement to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement if you wish. Please check with your insurance company directly for information about your coverage. Insurance companies often require a qualifying diagnosis. Therefore, some clients prefer to receive counseling services without the involvement of their insurance to maintain confidentiality and not receiving a diagnostic label.

To discuss billing and payment information in more detail, please call me at (831) 272-4299 to schedule a free phone consultation now.
