In our area the rate for
a therapist ranges from $150 to $50 for 55 to 60
minutes.
Because therapy is going to be an important, life
changing, experience for you – I offer a free
half-hour initial meeting. You should be able to
meet with as many therapists as you would like to
before deciding who is the best fit for you. To help
with that, many of us offer free or reduced fees for
the initial evaluation.
My regular fee is $90 for a 60-minute session. This
fee stays the same even if more people attend the
session (such as your partner or children or
parents). This is a reduced rate for my services
because I do not accept insurance. (See "Therapy
FAQs for more information on this.) I also offer a
sliding scale, based on income. Because of the
nature of Internal Family Systems
work, I do see couples together and individually as
the need arises. I will often adjust the rate for
the individual sessions in that case, so that the
work can still remain affordable. As my client, you
may also have a free telephone consult with me for
up to 10 minutes each week. Any time beyond that
will be prorated based on the regular hourly fee we
have agreed to. Most people find that 10 minutes is
more that adequate. An exception to my hourly fee
structure is my rate for group therapy. That fee is
$25 per person for 90 minutes when the group is six
people or more. I also provide workshops to the
community. These fees vary (if there is a fee at
all) and will be advertised. My workshops are
educational rather than therapeutic in nature.
