For couple's therapy, I do not bill insurance companies directly, or accept insurance. I have found it very difficult to do good work in the time allocated and reimbursed by insurance companies. I am aware that therapy can be a financial strain, and I do my best to make our time together efficient, and focused on the goals.

I have found that couples therapy is more effective when we are able to meet more, and for longer periods of time in the beginning. Then begin tapering off once there is an increase in behavioral, and emotional change in the relationship. I encourage clients to consider good therapy as an investment, and to understand that investing in high quality treatment will pay off in the end.
