Before starting the process of therapy I offer a 30
minute consultation at no cost to you.
Finding a therapist who is a good fit for you is the
most important step after you have decided to
start this powerful process.

Rates for psychotherapy sessions are as follows:
55 minute Individual sessions $85*
55 minute Couple's & Family Sessions $100*
*I reserve a limited number of hours in my schedule to see clients
who have financial need for a sliding scale.  Please inquire about this
option if you are unable to pay my standard fees.

Payment for sessions is due at the time of our
meeting. You may pay with cash or check, or use a
Visa or Mastercard via Pay Pal.

The cost of Art Workshops varies and is listed along with the
description.

{Artful Balance's Cancellation Policy}

Policy: All cancellations must be made at least 24 hours before the
scheduled appointment time in order to avoid a cancellation fee.
(Please cancel Monday appointments by the previous Friday).
Your appointment time is reserved specifically for you.

Fee: $50.00

{Benefits of Enforcing the Cancellation Policy}

¤ It promotes good boundaries: Part of engaging in therapy involves
taking responsibility for one’s decisions and actions; as well as
developing awareness of how we impact one another.

¤ It strengthens the therapeutic relationship: When the therapist
and the client respect each other’s time, the therapeutic
relationship is enhanced and protected.

¤ It promotes your therapeutic work: The commitment to the
therapeutic work is strengthened and therefore there is incentive
for greater progress.

¤ It allows more people to be served when they need it: When you
cancel your appointment with as much advanced notice as possible,
you open the spot for another person or family in need of services.

¤ It protects Artful Balance’s health as a business: when the
business is functioning well, it enhances my ability to provide the
highest level of care.

¤ Knowing that this policy is enforced without exceptions ensures
fairness for all, and nobody takes it personally when a fee is
charged. Many circumstances are both understandable and very
unfortunate, yet Artful Balance is unable to financially sustain the
losses of client’s individual circumstances.
