Important Information

Please review the info below before reaching out. It outlines fees, structure, and fit so you can determine whether this practice aligns with your needs before scheduling a consultation.

    • Ongoing Couples Therapy: $275 per 80-minute session

    Payment is due at the time of service.

    I am an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. Upon request, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Many insurance companies don’t cover couples therapy.

    I recommend contacting your insurance provider to understand your out-of-network benefits prior to beginning therapy.

    For fees and other information about intensives, please see the Intensives page.

  • All sessions and intensives are held in person at my Bainbridge Island office. Telehealth is available for couples located in Washington State.

    Intensives are offered in person only.

    345 Knechtel Way NE Suite 111
    Bainbridge Island, WA 98110

  • All regular couples sessions are 80 minutes.

    Most couples begin with weekly sessions. Depending on your goals and stability, sessions may move to biweekly over time.

    Intensives follow a different structure and can serve as a jumpstart, a reset, or a complete course of focused work.

  • It is common for partners to have different levels of readiness. We can discuss this during the consultation. Couples therapy works best when both partners are willing to participate honestly, even if you are not equally motivated at the start.

Beginning couples therapy is a meaningful step. If you’re here, something in your relationship matters enough to address directly.
