Rates & Insurance
I'm in-network with select insurance panels, and I also offer private-pay options for clients who prefer to work outside of insurance or whose plan isn't one I accept. Below is an overview of how we can work together.
Using Insurance
I'm currently in-network with Blue Cross BlueShield/Carefirst, Aetna, and United Healthcare. If your plan is one of these, your sessions will be billed directly to your insurance, and you'll be responsible for your copay, coinsurance, or deductible as determined by your plan. I recommend contacting your insurer beforehand to confirm your mental health benefits and any session limits.
A note on using insurance: billing through insurance requires submitting a diagnosis and, in some cases, treatment information to your insurer as part of the claims process. If privacy or flexibility around diagnosis and treatment planning is a priority for you, private pay may be a better fit — see below.
Private Pay Options
For clients who prefer not to use insurance — or whose plan I'm not in-network with — I offer the following:
Individual Therapy | $220 per 55-minute session
Many private-pay clients reduce this cost using out-of-network benefits through Thrizer — often paying far less than they expect.
Reduced-Fee Individual Therapy | $130–$160 per session
I hold a limited number of reduced-rate spots for private-pay clients for whom the full fee is a genuine barrier. These are allocated based on financial need and availability, not first-come, first-served. If you're interested, reach out directly and we'll have a brief conversation about fit and options.
A Note on Out-of-Network Benefits (Thrizer)
If your plan isn't one I'm in-network with, you may still have out-of-network mental health coverage — many clients don't realize they have it. If you have a PPO or similar plan, there's a good chance Thrizer can reduce your per-session cost by 50–80%. Thrizer's benefits calculator takes about two minutes and shows you exactly what your coverage looks like before you commit to anything.
Payment Methods
I accept all major credit and debit cards, HSA, and FSA for private-pay and reduced-fee sessions.
