The Fee

Individual Psychotherapy: $200 per 50-minute session. The Sustainer Rate for individual reclamation and deep internal work.

Relational Couples Therapy: $280 per 70-minute session. An extended, intensive container designed for couples to move past surface-level conflict and into core emotional reconnection. This longer format allows us to complete a full cycle of de-escalation and healing in every session, making our work together more focused and efficient.

Why the distinction?

Relational work is uniquely intensive. It requires a therapist to hold the space for multiple perspectives, navigate complex interpersonal cycles, and facilitate deep emotional safety for two people simultaneously. This rate reflects the specialized training and the increased clinical energy required to support the health of your partnership.

Why Out-of-Network?

I have intentionally chosen to remain out-of-network to protect the integrity and confidentiality of our work.

Maximizing Your Benefits (The Superbill)

Many clients in Northern Virginia have PPO plans that offer significant reimbursement for "Out-of-Network" mental health services. I provide a monthly Superbill (a detailed receipt) that you can submit to your insurance for direct reimbursement.

I recommend calling your provider and asking these specific questions:

1. Do I have "Out-of-Network" benefits for outpatient mental health (CPT code 90837 for individuals or 90847 for couples)?

2. What is my out-of-network deductible, and has it been met?

3. Once my deductible is met, what percentage of the "allowed amount" will be reimbursed to me?

4. How do I submit my Superbill for reimbursement?

Wealth Redistribution & Sustainability

My practice is committed to a redistribution of wealth. While we work individually, we exist within a communal pot.

The $215 fee is a "Sustainability Rate." It covers the cost of high-level clinical care while subsidizing sliding scale spots for those who have been historically marginalized from quality mental health care. When you pay the full fee, you are directly supporting a community ecosystem that allows therapy to be accessible to those who might otherwise be priced out.

Reflecting on your fee: I invite you to consider a rate that feels like a significant investment in your growth, but one that does not require you to sacrifice what is life-sustaining to you. If the sustainability rate is a barrier, please reach out to discuss current sliding scale availability.

not in network with any insurance providers which gives us the luxury of more freedom in our work together and I am better able to maintain your confidentiality. This doesn’t mean you have no options, however.
