Private Pay and Fees

Creating a therapeutic experience that works for you.

Why private pay?

Choosing a therapist is an important investment in your well-being, relationships, and quality of life. While many therapy practices participate with insurance companies, I have chosen to work with clients on a private-pay basis so that treatment remains focused on your needs rather than the requirements of a third party.

Individual therapy

Therapy centered on YOU.

When insurance is involved, treatment is often subject to requirements imposed by the insurance company. These requirements may include a mental health diagnosis, restrictions on the length or frequency of sessions, documentation requirements, and limitations on what services can be provided.

By working together on a private-pay basis, you have greater control over your treatment. We can focus on your goals, your values, and the pace of therapy that best supports your growth and healing.

Private pay leads to individualized care

Treatment tailored to your needs.

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Private-pay therapy allows for greater flexibility in the treatment process, including:

  • Focusing on personal growth, relationship concerns, life transitions, or stress management, even when these concerns may not meet medical necessity criteria

  • Developing treatment goals based on your priorities

  • Adjusting the frequency of sessions according to your needs

  • Taking a collaborative approach that is guided by your progress rather than insurance requirements

An investment in lasting change.

Therapy is an investment in yourself, your relationships, and your future. My goal is to provide a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.

If you're interested in learning more about working together, I invite you to schedule a consultation to discuss your goals and determine whether my practice is the right fit for your needs.
