What To Expect When We Work Together
Here, therapy is tailored, immersive, and intentionally designed to bring meaningful change.
A Dedicated Space for Playful Healing:
Wholehearted Support, Expertise, and Care
When your family steps into therapy with me, you get more than just a session—you get my full attention, depth, and commitment. You also get a deeply grounded presence—someone whose nervous system can stay steady, even when things feel intense.
Therapy is an investment—of time, energy, and resources. And you are worth it.
My regular session fee for therapy clients is $250 for individuals and families per 50-minute session. Typically, I meet weekly with clients when we begin working together. I also offer intensives for high-impact, focused, short-term therapy. If this is something that interests you, please contact me.
As a therapist, I believe in practicing what I teach.
Your investment goes beyond our time together—I dedicate myself to ongoing learning, attending advanced trainings, gathering resources, and thoughtfully preparing for each session. I take this work very seriously, and I am committed to giving you the highest level of care. That starts with taking care of myself, emotionally, physically, and financially.
To serve you best, I intentionally limit the number of clients I work with. This allows me to be fully present, maintain a clean and safe space—yes, that includes sanitizing playroom toys between young clients—and take the time I need between sessions to recharge, so I can show up for you, your family, or your child with my whole heart.
Sliding Scale and Supporter Rates
I offer a limited number of reduced-fee spaces to help make therapy more accessible while keeping my practice sustainable. These spots are first-come and reserved for families who need them most. Every family’s circumstances are different, and income alone doesn’t tell the whole story — please use your honest judgment about what fee reflects your situation. A supporter rate of $275 is also available for those who are comfortably resourced and wish to help offset reduced-fee or pro bono spots for others.
Scroll below for details on the sliding scale.
Cancellation Policy
If you know in advance of 24 hours that you’re unable to attend your scheduled session and we’re unable to find a mutually agreed-upon time to reschedule within the same week or the week before or after that session, the full session fee will apply. The full fee will be charged for cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice. However, I understand that emergencies (for example, a sudden death or serious injury of an immediate family member) happen. If that’s the case, we may be able to make other arrangements to avoid the cancellation fee. You will never be charged for any sessions I cancel due to illness, planned vacations, or holidays.
I’m honored to be part of your journey and look forward to supporting you.
When you enter into therapy with me,
I commit to your family. I ask you to be equally invested.
AN IMPORTANT NOTE
Why I Work Outside of Insurance.
I choose to work directly with my clients, not through insurance companies. This means we can focus entirely on what will be most helpful for you or your child—not what fits inside a narrow set of boxes on an insurance form.
By staying outside of insurance networks, I’m free to:
Tailor our work to your unique needs and pace
Use the full range of approaches that will best serve you, rather than only those covered by your plan
Protect your privacy—your personal information and session details stay between us
Spend my time and energy fully present with you, not navigating insurance red tape
Many clients still receive some reimbursement for my services if they have “out-of-network” benefits (often included in PPO plans). If you’d like to explore this, I partner with Thrizer, a service that makes out-of-network therapy simpler and more affordable. Thrizer verifies your benefits, files claims for you, and manages reimbursements—so you can focus on therapy, not paperwork.
I can provide a “Superbill” (a specialized receipt for insurance) whether or not you use Thrizer. If your plan offers out-of-network benefits, any reimbursement you receive can be a welcome bonus—but it’s best to plan for the full cost of therapy yourself. High deductibles, limited coverage, or claim denials can happen for many reasons, such as not covering a certain diagnosis, the structure of intensives, telehealth sessions, or out-of-network providers.
The bottom line: when we step outside the limits of insurance, you and I can focus on what truly matters—work that’s flexible, private, and deeply attuned to your needs. Without the red tape, all of my time and energy can go into you and your progress, so you get the care and attention you deserve.
Reach out and let's transform your family.
Support That Meets You Where You Are
I created this guide to help you reflect on what feels right for your situation — and to make choosing a tier a thoughtful, grounded decision rather than a stressful one.
-
This is the regular fee and the foundation that keeps my practice sustainable. It’s a good fit if your household income feels steady, you’re able to save and plan for the future, and therapy is a choice you can make without added financial stress.
-
This might feel right if you’re generally able to meet your needs but have less flexibility — maybe due to student loans, medical bills, or other ongoing expenses that make therapy a stretch at the standard rate.
-
For families juggling tighter budgets or significant financial responsibilities. If you’re covering essentials but don’t have much breathing room, this tier is here to help make therapy possible.
-
Reserved for those who otherwise wouldn’t be able to access therapy. These spots are limited and offered with the hope that they can make a difference.
-
For those with abundant financial stability who wish to help sustain this sliding scale and support others in accessing care.
How the Supporter Tier Expands Access
The supporter rate isn’t just a higher fee — it’s one of the ways my practice reflects my values. When someone chooses the $275 tier, their contribution helps make space for a client who might not otherwise be able to access therapy. In practice, that means your choice directly supports a reduced-fee or pro bono spot, allowing another family to receive care without adding to my overall caseload. It’s a way for those with more resources to invest in collective well-being — and to help healing reach further into our community.
When choosing your tier, consider more than just income — things like debt, dependents, health costs, caregiving roles, or unexpected life events all shape your financial landscape. And if you are a member of a systematically marginalized group, that reality matters here too.
The goal is for therapy to feel like a meaningful investment, not an impossible burden.
Giving Back: Supporting Young Mothers and Their Children
As part of my commitment to community care, when my practice is full, I donate 5% of my income to Mountain Home Montana — an organization that means a great deal to me. They offer a safe, nurturing place where young mothers can discover their strengths and where children have the chance to grow and thrive.
I give to Mountain Home because I believe that when a young parent is supported, it changes the trajectory of two lives at once. Early, compassionate care ripples outward — building stability, confidence, and connection that lasts for generations. The heart of their mission mirrors the heart of my own work: to nurture resilience, create safety, and walk alongside families as they grow.
This is one small way I can extend that care beyond the therapy room and into the community we all share.
GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE INFORMATION:
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
