Honest, transparent, and always worth a conversation.
FEES & CARE
You will always know what to expect before we begin. There will never be a surprise charge.
Transparency about fees is something I take seriously — it is part of the trust we build from the very beginning. Below you'll find everything you need: session rates, how payment works, why I chose not to work with insurance directly, and what options exist if cost is a genuine concern. Under the No Surprises Act, you also have the right to a Good Faith Estimate of costs before starting services — I am happy to provide one upon request.

A NOTE ON INSURANCE
Root & Branch Counseling is a private-pay practice. When insurance is involved in mental health care, companies require a formal psychiatric diagnosis and reserve the right to audit your private clinical records to determine "medical necessity." They may limit the number of sessions you can have, the length of those sessions, or the approaches I'm permitted to use. Your healing — and the privacy of your story — matters too much to be governed by those conditions.
Choosing private pay means that what happens between us stays between us. It means we work at the pace your healing actually requires. And it means I am accountable to you — not to a billing code.
If you have out-of-network mental health benefits, I encourage you to contact your insurance provider directly to ask about your coverage and reimbursement options.
Cost should not stand between you and care.
I hold a limited number of reduced-fee spots for clients for whom the full fee presents a genuine barrier. Please ask during your free consultation — there is no shame in the question. Asking for what you need is part of the work.
