How Much will it cost?
The costs of therapy are always a big concern for families. Therapy can be costly depending on the situation that brings a person there. Psychological evaluations are charged through a set rate that depends on the assessments utilized but include administration and report writing in the price. These fees would be discussed after an initial meeting in which the tools are determined.
The Initial meeting is $250 which is to complete the Diagnostic Assessment. I will meet three to six times with patients to determine a treatment plan and frequency of sessions. All sessions after the initial session are 45 minutes. There are additional fees for other services (report writing, court appearances, telephone conversations over 10 minutes, etc). Payment is expected at the time of service unless other arrangements have been made. I accept cash, personal check or credit card. There is a $35 service fee on all returned checks.
The frequency of sessions is dependent on the age of the patient and the severity of the symptoms. In general, I usually start out meeting weekly and then move to alternate weeks through the main course of treatment. When we are wrapping up treatment, I will suggest a few monthly check in sessions.
