Good Faith Estimate: The private pay fee for a 50-minute psychotherapy visit (in-person or via telehealth) is $50.00. Payment is requested at the time services are rendered and may be made with cash, credit, or debit card. You will not be seen by your therapist if you are three or more sessions behind in payment unless a prior arrangement has been made with your therapist.
Most clients will attend one therapy visit per week, but the frequency of therapy visits that are appropriate in your case may be more or less than once per week, depending upon your needs. Based upon a fee of $50.00 per visit, if you attend one therapy visit per week, your estimated charge would be $200.00 for four visits provided over the course of one month; $400.00 for eight visits over two months; or $600.00 for 12 visits over three months. If you attend therapy for a longer period, your total estimated charges will increase according to the number of visits and length of treatment.
