Counseling

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.” — Anaïs Nin

If you desire to find joy and to know a greater satisfaction in life, I can help. I work with people of all ages in a safe, comfortable, and light-filled space where together we can address feelings of anxiety, problems with addictions, depression, questions about faith, and longing to experience deeper connections in relationships. Time and time again within the counseling relationship, people with whom I work report feeling relief from troubling symptoms, less alone in the world, and a renewed sense of confidence and inner peace.

Rates

Fee agreement appointments are either 50 or 80-minutes long and are billed at the rate of: $150 for 50-minutes, $200 for 80-minutes (individuals), and $200 for 50-minute couples sessions. Other than the initial 20-minute complementary consultation, phone consultations will be charged at a rate of $25 per 15-minute increment. Any work pertaining to legal proceedings will be charged at $350 per hour. Rates are subject to change; they are evaluated periodically and may be adjusted up to 10%.

I reserve a few appointments for clients who are unable to pay current rates; sliding scale rates are agreed upon by myself and each client and are reviewed every six weeks.

Forms

Upon scheduling your first session, I provide login information to a portal where you’ll find the following paperwork to complete online prior to meeting:

Payment

I accept cash, check, or credit at time of service. If you choose to store your card information in the secure client portal, services will be charged at the end of each session.

I am in-network with Cigna and Regence Blue Cross. Your insurance provider may reimburse all or part of your payment. If I am out of network for your plan, I am happy to provide you with the necessary paperwork to file for reimbursement from your insurance company or employee benefit plan.
