fees and services

All services are private pay. Michael is an out-of-network provider and does not accept insurance. Payment is due at the time of service.

A free 20-minute consultation is available to help determine whether you’re seeking therapy, a diagnostic evaluation, or both.

Superbills are available for ongoing therapy (weekly or biweekly) if you plan to seek out-of-network reimbursement. Eligibility for reimbursement depends on diagnosis and medical necessity.

Therapy

Intensive Therapy Sessions $250 per hour

Extended sessions (typically 4-hour blocks) are designed for deeper, more focused work.

Intensives can be scheduled:

  • Weekly

  • Multiple times per week

  • Monthly for ongoing support

This format allows us to work more directly with patterns and experiences, in ways that often aren’t possible in shorter sessions. The approach is tailored to your needs and may integrate modalities such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, ACT, CBT, and other evidence-based approaches.

To learn more about intensive therapy, including structure and benefits, visit the Intensive Therapy Page.

Reduced-Fee Availability for Intensives

A limited number of reduced-fee intensive therapy openings are periodically available for individuals who would benefit from this format but for whom the standard fee would otherwise make treatment inaccessible.

When available, fees may be reduced to $150–$200 per hour (standard fee: $250/hour), depending on financial need and current availability. Reduced-fee intensives are offered as a 12-hour EMDR + IFS intensive, typically structured as three 4-hour sessions, which may be scheduled on consecutive days or spaced out over time based on your goals and circumstances.

If cost is a barrier, please contact me to discuss current availability.

Individual Therapy (50 minutes) $250 per session

Traditional weekly or biweekly sessions focused on understanding patterns, building insight, and creating meaningful change over time.

Initial Intake Session (90 minutes) $375

All new weekly or biweekly clients begin with a 90-minute intake session. If you are receiving reduced-fee therapy, the intake session is also offered at your agreed-upon reduced rate.

This session provides space to understand your history, current concerns, and goals, and can be used in one of two ways:

  • A comprehensive clinical intake focused on beginning therapy work

  • A full differential diagnostic evaluation, if you are seeking diagnostic clarity

If you plan to pursue out-of-network reimbursement from your insurance company, this session must include a diagnostic evaluation, and you must meet medical necessity criteria.

Relationship Therapy (90 minutes) $375 per session

Relationship work focuses on helping partners better understand each other, communicate more effectively, and move beyond reactive patterns. This work integrates IFS-informed approaches and Gottman-based principles.

Good Faith Estimate (GFE) and the No Surprises act

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining the expected cost of your care. Under the No Surprises Act, health care providers must provide clients without insurance with an estimate of the expected charges for services. You can request a Good Faith Estimate before scheduling a service, or at any time during treatment. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill. For more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, you can visit: https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
