RATES & INSURANCE
Support That Makes a Difference
PRIVATE PAY
The Self-pay rate for a 60 minute session is $140.
A popular form of payment for therapy is self-pay. When an individual pays for therapy through self-pay instead of utilizing insurance both confidentiality and treatment remain between you and your therapist. Treatment decisions, length of therapy sessions, confidentiality and many other important decisions are always kept between you and your therapist. However, when utilizing health insurance to pay for therapy you may be giving up confidentiality, treatment decisions, length of therapy and other relevant decisions to your insurance company.
Most clients schedule weekly or bi-weekly. If paying out of pocket then the costs could equal up to $7000 ($140×50weeks) annually.
HSA/FSA cards are accepted.
