FAQs: Logistics

You need a specialist to cut through the muck and deliver on a clinical strategy to actually break free from the cycle you are stuck in.
You work so hard on so much and deserve a life that feeds back into you, a clinical team that is dedicated to excellence and to promoting your success in, between, and beyond sessions.
Our clients not only consistently report finding joy and happiness in their relationships again but also improved personal mental health, higher self-esteem, lower stress levels, more connection and closeness that actually feels robust.
The Break Free approach integrates systemic and evidence-based practices from the first time we speak to the day you finally break free from the very reason you reached out to begin with and beyond, through maintenance if you decide to keep up with the work.
This integrated approach boasts resilient impacts on quality of life, relationships and personal wellness.
If that sounds like what you are looking for, reach outand let’s get to it!

Our goal is to make sure you have the highest standard of care, results as promptly as possible and that we do the work to ensure those results last.
The sooner you are ready to move on from regularly scheduled therapy, the longer you will have on earth to enjoy the results we worked for. That is our goal, getting you there, not keeping you here.
We price our sessions modestly, beneath the standard for the level of care and just over the average for our market. Currently that rate is between $185 and $255/hour before any potential insurance reimbursement.
Your ideal session length and total number of sessions you can expect to have is very case-specific. I use empirically supported approaches in my work with clients to ensure maximum efficacy and efficiency. Most of my clients will complete their treatment significantly faster than industry standard, with fewer relapses.
It is incredibly important that you are able to access the care you are looking for. If the fee is just out of reach, schedule a consult or send and email and we can work together to make sure you are able to get started, even if that is through a quality referral.
For more information, see below this section for expanded fee information.
-
When you choose to work with us, we will explore your concerns and history in initial intake appointments, outlining goals for your treatment and charting our course.
Depending on if you are reaching out for individual, group or family therapy, session plans will vary. This is something we will discuss during consultation and in the initial intake appointment.
Between sessions, you can be assured that your case is reviewed, your treatment is planned and that your clinician engages in robust consultation with seasoned experts to ensure their efficacy.
-
Once you begin treatment with us, you have a regular and prioritized spot on the calendar and as such we cannot and will not take on additional clients to make up for times when you are not able to attend on short notice.
If you are unable to meet and reach out 48 hours in advance, we will reschedule your appointment at another point in the same week. If you are unable to meet and reach out with less notice, the full fee applies and we will spend the time allocated to your session on your case.
-
We offer insurance claim support through a dedicated billing service that will automate your claim process and follow up with your insurance company to pursue reimbursement.
Full payment is due at the time of service. If you choose to seek reimbursement from insurance we cannot make guarantees on their process.
We are happy to run an insurance check and let you know what the estimated coverage will be.
The cost of staying the same is higher than the price of change.
Investing in the Break Through
You already know the cost of staying where you are. The current trajectory no longer serves you, and the price of "business as usual" has already become too high.
It is time to break free. Investing in therapy isn't just a financial commitment, it is a radical investment in yourself, your relationship, your future. Through bypassing insurance limits and rejections (relational therapy often isn’t covered because no one is “sick”) you are able to take control of your privacy and progress.
Expertise and efficacy while protecting your privacy and ensuring you have say in your relationship healing process, that is priceless.
The Investment in Yourself
Your growth requires dedicated time and space. We offer focused sessions designed to help you reclaim your path forward. Pricing is determined by time in session and which clinician you work with:
1-Hour Sessions: $185-$255
1.5 Hour Sessions: $255-$395
Intensives are 120-Minute Sessions at $495-$545 or 180 minutes for $599-$805
Reach out to learn more about using your insurance benefits to reduce your cost.
We work with a dedicated billing service to facilitate Out-of-Network billing for PPO plans like those under Aetna, Cigna, BCBS, Premera and so on.

Starting January 1, 2022, federal laws regulating client care have been updated to include the “No Surprises” Act.
Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients/clients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services called a “Good Faith Estimate” (GFE) explaining how much your medical care will cost.
What the Good Faith Estimate Covers
This Good Faith Estimate shows the costs of items and services that are reasonably expected for your health care needs for an item or service.
The estimate is based on information known at the time the estimate was created.
The Good Faith Estimate does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. You could be charged more if complications or special circumstances occur.
Your Right to Dispute the Bill
If you are billed for more than this Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill.
Contact the provider: You may contact the health care provider or facility listed to let them know the billed charges are higher than the Good Faith Estimate.
You can ask them to update the bill to match the Good Faith Estimate, ask to negotiate the bill, or ask if there is financial assistance available.
Start a dispute resolution process: You may also start a dispute resolution process with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
If you choose to use the dispute resolution process, you must start the dispute process within 120 calendar days (about 4 months) of the date on the original bill.
There is a $25 fee to use the dispute process.
If the agency reviewing your dispute agrees with you, you will have to pay the price on this Good Faith Estimate.
If the agency disagrees with you and agrees with the health care provider or facility, you will have to pay the higher amount.
Resources for More Information
To learn more and get a form to start the process, go to www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call HHS at (800) 368-1019.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate or the dispute process, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 368-1019.
Important: Keep a copy of this Good Faith Estimate in a safe place or take pictures of it. You may need it if you are billed a higher amount.
