Out-of-pocket rates

Four clinicians, two price points.

Our licensed clinicians share one rate. Sessions with Skylar, our counselor intern, cost less, which can make weekly counseling more accessible.

Session fees are collected at the beginning of the meeting. We accept cash (exact change, please), checks, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, AMEX, and HSA/FSA.

How we keep therapy focused

Treatment length varies depending on your individual goals, clinical needs, diagnosis, and progress. Whatever the length, a few things keep the work moving:

  1. Clear goals up frontWe work with you to establish objective and measurable goals at the onset of therapy, so we both know what progress looks like.
  2. Progress you can seeWe administer brief questionnaires to measure change over time using real numbers, so improvement isn't just a feeling.
  3. Regular check-insWe check in with you on a regular basis to make sure your needs are being met and that we're getting to the root of the problem.

Your first interaction with us is a free 20-minute phone consultation. That time is spent getting to know what’s bringing you to therapy, your goals, and whether we may be a good fit to work together.
