The Listening Chair
Psychotherapy, PLLC
FEES
Clear numbers, no surprises
I'm a private-pay practice, so there are no insurance networks, no claims, and no surprise bills. You'll know exactly what a session costs before you book one.

Three-month commitment plans
Real change rarely happens in three sessions. If you're ready to commit to the work, a flat monthly rate covers weekly sessions and costs less than paying visit by visit.

What private pay means for you
I don't bill insurance. You pay me directly for each session, at the rate listed above, and there is nothing else coming later — no claims, no networks, no explanation-of-benefits letters, no surprise balance three months from now.
It also means no insurance company is involved in your care. They don't require a diagnosis on file to approve you, they don't decide how many sessions you're allowed, and they can't request your records. How long we work together is a decision you and I make.
If your plan reimburses out-of-network care, I'm glad to provide a receipt you can submit — though I can't guarantee what they'll pay. And if the fee itself is what's stopping you, ask me about a reduced-rate slot before you decide against starting.
Sliding scale
I hold a small number of reduced-fee slots. If cost is the thing standing between you and starting, say so — it will not be held against you.
Good Faith Estimate
Because this is a private-pay practice, federal law entitles you to a written estimate of expected costs before we begin. I provide one automatically.
Cancellations
Please give 24 hours' notice. Late cancellations and no-shows are charged the full session fee.
