FEES FOR SERVICES OTHER THAN PSYCHOTHERAPY
Although my "hourly" rate is $170, if there are other professional services you need I will break down the hourly cost in 15 minute increments for periods of less than one hour. Examples of other services might include report writing, telephone conversations lasting longer than 5 minutes, preparation of records or treatment summaries. Scheduled "phone sessions" will be billed at the above listed schedule of fees.
Because of the safety, trust and sensitive nature involved in a client-therapist relationship, I prefer to not be involved in any legal proceedings on your behalf. My doing so can have a harmful effect on the therapeutic relationship. If you do become involved in legal proceedings that require my participation, you will be expected to pay for all of my professional time, including preparation and transportation costs, even if I am called to testify by another party. Because of the difficulty of legal involvement, I charge $350/hour for preparation and attendance at any legal proceeding. If you are seeking services to fulfill a court order or anticipate involvement in legal proceedings that would require your therapist's involvement, please let me know and I will refer you to another provider.
I accept payment in the form of cash, check, debit card, credit card and health savings account cards. If your payment is returned by my bank or yours (e.g., due to insufficient funds), please be aware that you are responsible for a $25 fee for each returned payment.
