Individual private pay

Therapy on your terms, outside insurance billing

Even with insurance benefits, some professionals choose private pay for greater control over how therapy is funded and focused. I don’t submit private-pay sessions to insurance, so a diagnosis or medical-necessity request isn’t sent to an insurer for coverage approval.

$150 per 60-minute individual session

Why professionals choose private pay

  • No insurance claim submitted for your therapy
  • No diagnosis sent to an insurer to support payment
  • No insurer medical-necessity review or coverage approval for these sessions
  • More flexibility to focus on your goals, pace, and clinical needs
  • A clear session fee without insurance deductibles, copays, or coverage uncertainty

Couples Intensive Options

Focused, extended sessions give you room to slow down a recurring pattern, understand what is happening between you, and practice a more useful way forward.

90-Minute Deep Dive

$220 per session

A focused session to work on one recurring issue, or a structured first step before deciding what kind of support fits.

  • One clearly defined concern

Why I Don’t Use Insurance for Couples Counseling

Short version: Insurance generally does not cover relationship counseling as a standalone service. It may cover sessions when they are medically necessary to treat one partner’s diagnosable mental-health condition, with the other partner participating as collateral. My couples counseling is private pay, does not require a diagnosis or medical-necessity determination, and treats both of you as my clients.

Relationship-first, not diagnosis-first Insurance coverage is generally based on treatment for one partner’s diagnosable mental-health condition and whether care meets medical-necessity requirements. In couples sessions billed to insurance, one partner is typically identified as the patient and the other participates as collateral. My work is relationship counseling for both of you, without an insurance diagnosis or medical-necessity requirement.
Your privacy stays yours I don’t submit couples sessions to insurance, so there are no insurance claims or Explanation of Benefits for these sessions. Both partners are my clients, and our work is confidential within the limits reviewed in the couples consent process.
More flexibility, better fit Insurance rules can affect session length, frequency, and approach. Private pay gives us more flexibility to choose a pace and format that fits your situation, without insurance coverage requirements shaping the work.
Clear, upfront costs Couples sessions are $150 per 60 minutes. Intensive options and their rates are listed above. I can provide a Good Faith Estimate so you know expected costs in advance.
Bottom line: Private-pay couples counseling lets both partners be my clients and keeps the work focused on your relationship, without an insurance diagnosis or medical-necessity requirement.
