Therapy Sessions
We can work together to determine the best frequency and time length for your needs and our mutual availability. I ask that you commit to a once a week/45 minute session to start. My office is centrally located in Beacon, NY, or we can meet online.
Rates
$185/45 minute session
Payment is required before session. I will e-mail you an invoice for bank transfer before our scheduled appointment. I only accept debit/credit cards linked to FSA or HSA accounts. I do not accept checks.
As of January, 2022, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your mental health care will cost per the No Surprises Act. Under this act, health care providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who aren’t using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for mental health services. All therapy fees are listed on my website. The amount of sessions depends on a number of variables, including what you would like to address in therapy and how long you plan to participate in therapy, which is different for each individual and can change depending on availability, finances, life events and other factors.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of psychotherapy services. You can ask me for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule therapy with me. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

Insurance
I am not in-network with insurance companies, if you have out-of-network (OON) benefits, I can provide paperwork to submit to your insurance company for OON claims. I do not participate in Medicare (self-pay only) or Medicaid programs.
Prior to accessing your OON benefits, I recommend you contact your insurance company for benefit information.
Getting Started
I offer a 15 minute video consultation (no fee) to get started. I look forward to hearing from you!
