$200 per 60-minute session. In many cases, when EMDR therapy is utilized, the sessions are typically 90 minutes. First visits: I prefer a 2 hour appointment (unless you request a shorter appointment) for visit one.
Accepting insurance allows the insurance company to determine your treatment plan, as well as what type of treatment is covered. As a result, we are unable to accept insurance. Although the financial aid you may receive is most important to you, we cannot allow insurance companies to determine your treatment plan. You and I must determine that - 100%. That's NEVER the case when insurance companies "call the shots". Unfortunately, they determine what's covered, how long we may work on your problem, and even if your problem is worthy of treatment. Those are decisions that you and I need to make. It should not be the insurance companies who determine the outcome of your mental or physical health. Plus, in terms of privacy, many of my patients have expressed the desire NOT to be part of a large data base "owned" and shared by the insurance companies. We agree with that sentiment.
