Contact Form

Call me on 843-793-2955 for an appointment so I can have some understanding of what is bringing you in for therapy. On rare occasions, I recognize that you might be better served by seeing another provider. Should I think that’s the case, I’ll be honest with you and make a referral to avoid wasting your time or your money.

FEES and INSURANCE

Beginning 7/1/21, I will be raising my fees (by $25.) for the first time in 16 years. Anyone I am currently seeing at that time, or is scheduled for an upcoming appointment, or who has seen me in the last year, will continue to pay the fees listed below until 7/1/2022. Though I do not take insurance, I will provide the necessary information for people with “out-of-network benefits” to assist their getting reimbursed by their carriers.  My normal fees are $150. for the initial evaluation, and $125. for individual therapy sessions.   I offer a courtesy discount for other mental health professionals.  In special circumstances I may scale my fees.  Fees are due at the time of your session, and currently, video or phone sessions may be paid by credit card or Zelle.

FREE CONSULTATION

If someone is uncertain after our initial phone interview as to whether they wish to start therapy, I’m happy to offer a free, one-half hour consultation session by encryted Zoom to help them better make a decision.
