I do not see clients in person; our sessions will occur virtually on an easy-to-use, secure video conferencing platform. The beauty of virtual therapy is that it allows us to be more flexible in our scheduling as we don’t have to worry about commutes, traffic and parking nightmares, or interference of other life obligations requiring our time.

The most effective frequency of services varies greatly. I’m happy to collaborate in figuring out a recommended plan to best meet your current goals during our initial conversations.

Therapy Services

• Individual sessions: $185 for 50-minutes. This is the "typical" therapy session and the foundation of our work together.

• Relational sessions: $225 for 50-minutes for dyads. $35 per additional person per hour.

• Mini sessions: $90 for 25-minutes. An awesome option for people who want a check-in but don't need the length of a standard session.

• Intensive sessions: $295 for 90-minutes. Longer sessions are perfect for those who want to dive in on a particular topic or feel like a standard session isn't enough time but don't want to (or can't) schedule more than one session in a week. Additional fees for each additional member to a dyad.

Gender Affirming Care

• Letter for Gender Affirming Hormones (GAHT): $185+

• Letter for Gender Affirming Surgeries: $185+ 

• Pay-what-you-can model for initial letters (up to the amounts listed above). Pick the rate that works best for you.

• Reduced rates available for letter updates or future letters, if needed.

Short-Term CBT-I Therapy for Insomnia

• The total cost of the standard course of CBT-I treatment (6-8 sessions) is $1,350-1,800.

• Each session is $225 and is 45-50 minutes long. Some find they would like additional/booster sessions following completing the course of treatment in conjunction with their general therapy - this is up to you and completely welcome!

I firmly believe in the accessibility of mental health care. Therefore, I reserve a number of spots for reduced rates. Though these spots might not be available at all times, I encourage you to inquire.

This is a yes and no answer! Mindful Care Therapy and Consultation is an out-of-network private pay practice which means we do not accept insurance directly. Many insurance providers offer out-of-network (OON) benefits and there are several ways in which you can utilize health-related funds, like HSAs or FSAs, to receive reimbursement for services. If you will be using OON benefits, we will provide you a superbill, essentially a receipt, which you can then submit to your insurance for reimbursement. Mindful Care Therapy and Consultation also offers a resource of company designed to to simplify, expedite, aid you through the reimbursement process at no extra cost to you if you are interested.

Consumers often receive more choice in which provider they see and the flexibility of services they receive by working with an out-of-network (OON) provider.

Some common reasons people may prefer working with an OON provider:

• highly personalized treatment and self determination in deciding the best therapeutic techniques and pace for your goals

• not being required to have a diagnosis or label as "proof" of "needing therapy". Nothing has to become a part of your medical record just for the purpose of insurance coverage

• increased confidentiality and privacy because there is not 3rd-party oversight into your progress, challenges, and goals. Everything is decided and agreed upon between you and your therapist only.

• avoiding use of a high deductible

• financial flexibility to continue services in the event of financial emergency instead of having to stop therapy altogether

I am happy to check your insurance benefits for you during consultations.

If you want to check on your own, I highly recommend contacting your insurance provider to learn about your personal benefits. Each insurance company is a little bit different, but asking the following questions should provide a lot of clarity:

• Does my plan cover outpatient mental health or behavioral health out-of-network providers via telehealth?

• What is my out-of-network deductible? And has it been met for this year? (This is the amount you are responsible for before the plan begins to reimburse you.)

• What is the out-of-pocket maximum? (This is the amount you must pay in a year before the insurance plan begins to pay for 100% of expenses.)

• Does my plan limit the number of sessions I can have in a year?

• Does my plan require a referral from an in-network provider, like my primary care physician, to see an out-of-network provider?

• What is the rate of reimbursement for CPT codes 90834, 90832, and 90847?

Credit, debit, health savings account (HSA), or flexible spending account (FSA) are all acceptable forms of payment.

Life is unpredictable and sometimes unexpected things come up. I ask you to provide a minimum of 24-hour notice when you need to cancel or reschedule. If there is no communication prior to your missed session it is considered a no show. As we commit to working together, I reserve your session time exclusively for you and hope this is a commitment you value and prioritize. The following fees will be charged for a late cancellation or missed appointment:

• No show - Full session fee.

• Late cancellations - $100 per missed session.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of what your services may cost.

Under the law, health care providers need to give individuals who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services, including psychotherapy services.

• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.

Most psychotherapy clients receive regular and recurring services. It may be difficult to estimate the total length of treatment to achieve initial goals. Additionally, client goals may change during treatment. With that in mind, a Good Faith Estimate may be provided for recurring services provided within a 12 month period (e.g. the cost of weekly sessions for a year). A new estimate can be provided for additional services beyond 12 months.

A Good Faith Estimate does not account for additional charges outside of scheduled therapy sessions, such as late cancellation or no-show fees, additional sessions at the client’s request, administrative fees, court litigation fees, or other financial arrangements determined on a case-by-case basis. Clients of Mindful Care Therapy and Consultation, LLC may refer to their Informed Consent and financial agreements for additional details.
