Fees

In a perfect world, I would be able to offer my services for free; however, since I'm not independently wealthy, nor do I have any rich uncles, I must charge for my services. I provide services, as an independent contractor, through Denver Men’s Therapy. The fees I charge cover my education and business expenses, and compensate me for the labor of creating space for our work together and guiding clients toward healing. I set my fees in line with the market rate for clinicians in the area with similar education and experience levels. A percentage of each fee is retained by the practice under our contractor agreement.

My base rate is $180 per 45-60 minute session. There is a $20 administrative fee for the first session to cover the work required for onboarding new clients. 

Reduced Rates I know that while my rates are market standard, they can be a significant expense for people. I am a counselor to help people, not to get rich; therefore, I do offer a limited number of reduced rates for clients with demonstrated financial need. We will discuss fees in our initial session, and we'll revisit the reduced rate status every six months. 

Payment

Payment is required at the time of service, and all payments will be processed through SimplePractice - the software suite I use to manage my practice. I require all clients to keep a credit or debit card on file, and the card on file will be charged after your session. 

Insurance

I am a self-pay practice meaning that I do not bill or accept any insurance plans. However, I will provide the necessary paperwork that you would provide to your insurer to file a claim based on your benefit schedule. Please contact your insurance carrier to determine the information you will need to file this claim.
