Meet the Team

Sessions are 50 minutes. Every case also includes parent coaching every four weeks, billed at the same rate as a session. Parent coaching is part of how we work, not an add-on.

Out-of-Session Consultations

Sometimes you need your therapist's time outside a regular session, for a school meeting, a call with your child's pediatrician or psychiatrist, or a longer phone call between sessions.

That time is billed at your therapist's session rate, based on the time used. Example: a 30-minute call with a therapist who charges $200 per session costs $100.

The first 15-minute phone consultation is always free.

Insurance and Superbills

We do not bill insurance. All sessions are paid directly, by card on file.

We provide superbills. A superbill is an itemized receipt with the codes your insurance company needs. If your plan has out-of-network benefits, you submit the superbill and your plan pays you back directly. Many of our families get a good portion of the fee back this way.

How much your plan pays, and whether it pays, is between you and your insurer, so it's worth calling them before you start.

Cancellations

To cancel or reschedule without being charged, we need at least 48 hours' notice. Inside 48 hours, the full session fee is charged. Sessions that start late are still charged in full.

Why: your child's time slot is reserved for them every week. With 48 hours' notice, we can offer it to another family. With less, it sits empty.

There is also a clinical reason. Therapy works best when sessions happen every week, and skipped weeks slow therapy down.

Real emergencies are different: a car accident, a hospitalization, a death in the family. In those cases we will reschedule within the same week if we have an opening. Work conflicts, forgetting, and busy weeks are charged in full. The policy is applied the same way for every family.

No Sliding Scale

We don't offer a sliding scale, and we don't hold reduced-fee spots. The rates above are the rates, and they are the same for every family.

Our associate therapists have the lowest session fee at the practice, which is why some families start there. If that is still out of reach, tell us on the consultation call and we will point you to lower-fee options in the area. We would rather help you land somewhere that fits than have you start something you cannot keep up.

Getting Started

To reserve your intake appointment, we collect a deposit equal to one session at your therapist's rate. The deposit is not refundable, and it goes toward your first session, so it is not an extra fee.

Why is the deposit non-refundable?+

The intake hour is reserved for your family alone. If you cancel, that hour cannot be given to another family. The deposit is your first session, paid up front.
