Rates & Payment
Counseling is one of the few investments that can directly improve your overall quality of life. Our standard rate is $165 per session, and we offer several payment options to help ensure cost isn’t a barrier to getting support.
Paying PrivatelyMany clients choose to pay out-of-pocket for the highest level of privacy, flexibility, and control over their care. We also offer discount packages for those committed to ongoing support.
|
Using BenefitsWe don’t bill insurance directly, but if you have out-of-network benefits, you may qualify for reimbursement. We also accept HSA or FSA cards. Check to see if you have out-of-network benefits here:

Need-BasedWe offer a limited number of sliding scale slots as well as a scholarship program to help cover counseling costs — depending on counselor availability and current funding.
