FAQs
Fees
$220 per 50-minute session
$340 per 80-minute session
Most clients benefit best from a 50-minute session. 80-minute sessions are useful, but not required, for intakes.
Insurance
I am an out-of-network provider. Many folks have generous out-of-network coverage for psychotherapy. I partner with Reimbursify, so I am able to help you figure out your out-of-network coverage (just ask on our initial phone call)- no need to call your insurance company! I also provide free easy filing for reimbursement here.
How to Book
If you’re a new client, please visit my Book page to schedule a free consultation. Returning clients can schedule through my Online Portal.
Sliding Scale
It’s so important to me that high-quality therapy is accessible to all. To that end, I maintain a limited number of sliding-scale spots. To keep things equitable, I prioritize BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals, and folks who serve their communities full-time (teachers, activists, and nonprofit workers).
Cancellation Policy
I offer free cancellations up to 48 hours in advance of your appointment time. Once within that 48 hour window, I will make every effort to reschedule you within the week if possible.
No Surprises Act
You are entitled to a Good Faith Estimate of total costs, which, upon request, I will determine by multiplying the session fee by the likely number of sessions you may need in the next 12 months. This is simply an estimate- you may always end treatment at any time.

Frequency
As a policy, I ask new clients to begin on a weekly basis at the same time each week. While we may decide together to change the frequency of sessions, weekly is most effective for initiating treatment.
Length of Treatment
It is difficult, if not impossible, to give a blanket statement for how long treatment will take. Some clients find that they get what they need after just a few sessions, and some prefer support indefinitely. It is your choice how long to stay in therapy, and something we discuss regularly.
My preferred treatment modality, AEDP, has found that at least 16 weekly sessions yields positive effects that last over a year after the end of treatment, so I often use that as a benchmark when planning treatment.
Ending Treatment
In my practice, I prefer to begin with the end in mind, so in intake sessions we discuss your goals, how to assess them, and a reasonable timeline to achieve them. While life sometimes takes twists and turns, we are always working toward supporting your clarity about what you need- and when you’ve gotten it!
