How to Start, Fees & Policies

The first step is to give me a call to set-up your free initial consultation. This no obligation 50 minute session gives us a chance to meet to decide if I am the best match for you as a counselor. Entering counseling is a very personal matter and different people benefit most from different styles and techniques of counseling. Until we meet it is impossible to know if I will be right for you. If either of us feel that we are not a good match, I will be happy to refer you to other counselors or provide you with information on how to find someone who is right for you.

I am also happy to have an initial conversation with you via email or on the phone to answer any questions you may have before setting up the initial meeting.

To make the initial meeting more efficient feel free to download the appropriate forms below and bring them with you so you don't have to fill them out in my office. Or you can just fill them out there. Whatever works best for you.

Fees & Policies

I charge $100 for each 50 minute session and $125 for a 75 minute session. For sessions with more than one person I recommend the 75 minute session. There is a $25 charge for each additional 15 minute increment. I do not take insurance but can provide you with statements that you can send in to your provider for reimbursement (Note: not all insurance plans will cover my services). I also offer a sliding scale based on need and level of client motivation for a limited number of clients.
