This fee covers the initial 90-minute couples assessment session, the online Gottman Relationship Checkup for both partners, any additional assessment questionnaires developed by Balanced Approach, and my professional time reviewing, integrating, and analyzing all assessment data.

As part of the assessment process, I prepare a comprehensive written report outlining relationship strengths, challenges, key findings, and personalized treatment recommendations. This report is reviewed and provided during the feedback session.

Please Note: Individual sessions with each partner and the feedback session are separate appointments and are billed at the applicable session rate.

Session fees are based on the scheduled length of the appointment.  Extended sessions may be recommended when clinically appropriate and  will be discussed with you in advance whenever possible.

Cost for Marathon sessions will be discussed when scheduled.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.  Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. 

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your effective Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill with your provider. Your estimate will be discussed with you and updated based on your needs.
