What are your fees?
For interested persons, I offer a free half-hour consultation. This gives us an opportunity to meet and discuss what working together entails, so you can decide whether taking this path is right for you. If I am not a good "fit" for you and your needs, I will gladly give you the names of clinicians whose competency I trust. Please note that this short consultation is not a therapy session or the time to tell your story. Rather, it is an opportunity for you to see if I'm the person you want to work with and for me to see whether I have something to offer that could improve your situation. Specific fee information is discussed then or can be obtained by calling the office.
I have eliminated costly bookkeeping and billing fees by requiring payment at the time services are rendered.These savings are reflected in my fees. To keep costs down, I do not issue monthly statements but will provide a statement of your charges and payments on request. I will help you handle managed care issues and complete claim forms, if you wish, at no charge.
Sessions that extend beyond one hour are rounded to the nearest quarter hour. Acceptable forms of payment are cash, checks, MasterCard, and Visa. If you need to make special arrangements for payment, I will be happy to provide you with the names of businesses that offer credit or payment plans.
