My fee is $200 for a 50-minute session (common for individuals), and $260 for a 75-minute session (common for couples). I also accept Aetna, United Healthcare, and Quest Behavioral Health. For other insurances, if you have a PPO, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. I also offer sliding scale to assist clients of all incomes.
