Fees & Investing in Therapy
Therapy is an investment — not just financially, but emotionally and relationally. When you begin therapy, you’re choosing to devote time, attention, and care to yourself in a way that’s intentional and meaningful.
My fees reflect the full scope of what supports high-quality, ethical care: advanced training, ongoing consultation, time spent preparing for and documenting sessions, and the systems that protect your privacy and confidentiality. More importantly, they reflect a commitment to work that is thoughtful, paced, and grounded in what actually supports change, not what fits neatly into an insurance model.
You’re not paying for someone to simply listen. You’re choosing a therapeutic relationship that values depth, autonomy, and collaboration.
Working outside of insurance allows your care to be guided by what is clinically appropriate and collaboratively decided, rather than by external requirements around diagnoses, session limits, or treatment timelines.
Insurance Vs. Private Pay
Insurance companies often determine:
how long therapy should last
how frequently sessions “should” occur
what language must be used to justify care
This framework doesn’t always reflect lived experience, especially for clients navigating trauma, neurodivergence, burnout, or long-standing patterns shaped by adaptation and survival.
Private pay allows us to:
move at a pace that respects your nervous system
prioritize consistency and depth when needed
adapt sessions to what’s actually emerging
focus on progress that feels real, not performative
Progress might look like feeling less reactive, more present in your body, or having greater capacity to respond instead of push through. These changes don’t always translate into checkboxes, but they matter.
