Private Pay

Therapy is an investment of your time, energy, and financial resources, but it is also an investment in your overall well-being. It creates space to better understand yourself, process difficult experiences, and build tools for lasting change. Over time, this investment can support greater clarity, emotional balance, and a stronger sense of resilience in your daily life.

Private Pay

The Private Pay Approach Allows for:

Privacy

With private pay, your therapy remains confidential between you and your therapist, without sharing sensitive information with third parties.

No Diagnosis Needed

You can work on the areas that matter most to you without needing a medical label.

Full control over your treatment

Private pay allows therapy to be guided by your needs, not insurance rules.

More flexibility in approach

Private pay makes it easier to use integrative or specialized methods—such as EMDR, intensive sessions, or trauma-focused work—without needing pre-authorization or restrictions tied to coverage guidelines.

Why Private Pay?

Choosing private pay therapy offers several important benefits that support a more personalized and flexible healing experience:

  • Greater privacy and confidentiality: No insurance diagnosis or records are shared with third parties, keeping your care fully private.

  • More control over your treatment: Therapy is guided by your needs—not insurance limitations on session length, frequency, or type of care.

  • Specialized, high-quality care: Access to advanced, evidence-based approaches like EMDR, mindfulness, and somatic therapy without restrictions.

  • Faster access to services: No waitlists or insurance approval delays, so you can begin therapy when you’re ready.

  • Flexible scheduling and intensive options: Ability to choose longer sessions, EMDR intensives, or a pace that fits your goals.

I believe therapy should be as accessible as possible. While my standard fee applies to most clients, I reserve a limited number of sliding-scale spots for individuals with financial need. Availability is limited and may vary over time. If you're interested in exploring whether a reduced-fee spot is available, please contact me to discuss your situation.

Why Private Pay?

Private-pay therapy offers a highly personalized and discreet experience for individuals who value exceptional care, privacy, and autonomy. By working outside of insurance networks, clients benefit from enhanced confidentiality, free from diagnostic reporting requirements or third-party oversight.

This approach allows therapy to remain deeply individualized, with greater flexibility in scheduling, continuity of care, and the freedom to focus entirely on your personal goals, well-being, and long-term growth in a refined, supportive setting.
