We offer a variety of times throughout the week to meet each client’s needs. Our sessions are 50-60 minutes to conveniently serve each client, and we accept a flat rate of $125 per session.
Please note, we do not accept any form of insurance for appointments. Many of our clients value our flat rate sessions because of the increase in privacy, including diagnosis and treatment dates commonly sent to health insurance and/or employers.
Payment in full is required BEFORE each session.
