Session Length, Fees, and Frequency
Session Length
I offer sessions that are 50 minutes, 75 minutes, or 100 minutes in length.
Most of my individual clients choose to have sessions that are 50 minutes long, although some prefer the spaciousness of a longer session.
When there are more people in a session, it can be helpful to have more time, so that each person has time to be fully expressed in the course of the session. Consequently, 75 minute or 100 minute sessions are recommended for relationship partners and other multi-person groups receiving therapy.
If the group contains three or more people, a 75 minute session is the minimum.

Frequency of Sessions
Psychotherapy sessions are generally held once or twice weekly. If you would like to come in to see me more frequently, either on a regular basis, or on an as-needed basis, I am happy to see you more often, if our schedules allow it. I do not generally work with clients on a less frequent basis than once per week.
Health Insurance & Reimbursement
I do not accept health insurance, however, some insurance providers will reimburse their members for psychological services. If you are uncertain of your health insurance provider's policy on this, I encourage you to call your benefits department and inquire about whether or not they reimburse for psychotherapy and to ask about any associated requirements or limitations. I am happy to provide you with a monthly statement of service that you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement. Many of my clients receive reimbursement for a meaningful percentage of their psychotherapy costs.
