Rates
I generally see clients on a weekly basis. My basic fee is $200 for individuals per 50-minute session. Couples counseling is $200 per 50-minute session. A 90-minute couples counseling session is $300 per session. Family therapy is $220 per 50-minute session.
Billing
I ask that you pay my fee directly to me (check, cash or credit card) at the end of each session. You are responsible for payment whether or not you choose to use insurance coverage.
Insurance
Insurance coverage has advantages and disadvantages. Typically I am not covered by any managed care plan, health management organization or preferred provider plan. My license may be covered by some insurance companies as a non-participating provider. You must talk with your insurer to determine whether or not my services are covered.
At your request I will provide a statement with all necessary billing and payment information that you can submit to your insurance carrier. Your bill will most likely have to state a diagnosis. It is important to determine just how much coverage you have and whether the loss of confidentiality is worth the benefit. I have chosen to remain independent of these insurance plans because they intrude on your privacy in psychotherapy and limit your choices in treatment decisions. I encourage you to discuss any questions about this with me.
I am on the panel for the following and out of network for the rest:
- Pacific Source
If I am not an in-network provider with your plan, you may have out-of-network benefits that can reimburse a portion of therapeutic services. I am contracted with Sunrise Medical Billing Services, who will assist in checking insurance benefits, letting you know exactly how much you will owe, and facilitate all in-network and out-of-network insurance claims. The session fee, your co-pay and/or co-insurance is due at the time of service. Before your session, or with any insurance related questions, feel free to contact:

“Effortless doesn’t mean no effort; effortless means just enough effort to be vivid, to be present, to be here, to be now. To be bright. My teacher used to call this “effortless effort.” We each need to find out for ourselves what this means. Too much effort and we get too tight; too little effort and we get dreamy. Somewhere in the middle is a state of vividness and clarity and inner brightness.”

"If there`s something special you want to do,
now is the time... if you want to make a difference
in the world, now is the time. Don`t be fooled into
thinking you should wait until you are older or wiser
or more `secure` - because it doesn`t work that way.
The wisdom will come. The security will come.
But first you must begin your adventure." Ron Atchison

SINGULARITY
by Marie Howe
"Do you sometimes want to wake up to the singularity
we once were?
so compact nobody
needed a bed, or food or money —
nobody hiding in the school bathroom
or home alone
pulling open the drawer
where the pills are kept.
For every atom belonging to me as good
Belongs to you. Remember?
There was no Nature. No
them. No tests
to determine if the elephant
grieves her calf or if
the coral reef feels pain. Trashed
oceans don’t speak English or Farsi or French;
could we wake up to what we were before,
— when we were ocean and before that
to when sky was earth, and animal was energy, and rock was liquid and stars were space and space was not
at all — nothing
before we came to believe humans were so important
before this awful loneliness.
Can molecules recall it?
what once was? before anything happened?
No I, no We, no one. No was
No verb no noun
only a tiny tiny dot brimming with
is is is is is
All everything home."
