Session Length

Individual therapy is typically one hour.

Because of the dynamic nature of couples therapy, one hour is not typically enough.  Subsequently, I offer the option of 1 hour or 1.5 hour sessions (I highly recommend 1.5 hours for the first two sessions, but the choice is yours).

Number of sessions needed for problem resolution will vary depending upon the presenting concern, as well as other factors.  In my experience, approximately three months of weekly therapy will be necessary to get couples back on track, with follow-up sessions recommended (They serve to keep each person accountable and to mitigate against regression).

The week long intensive consists of daily therapy – Monday through Friday.  All sessions are 1.5 hours long for a total of 7.5 hours.  The week long intensives are available for persons who are in crisis or who are visiting Philadelphia or Bucks County.

Fees:

I honor a sliding scale fee, with fees varying from $80 – $140

Regular fees are as follows:

1 hour:  $140

1.5 hours:  $180

Home-based sessions :  $180/hr  (Home-based sessions are only offered in Newtown, New Hope, Washington’s Crossing and Yardley PA and no sliding scale fee is available for home-based sessions).

Week-long Intensive:  $1,000

Note 1:  The above schedule is what I recommend – what I find works (yields success) for most couples.  You, however, determine the course of your treatment and may schedule differently.

Note 2:  The last 5 minutes of each session will be reserved for documentation.

Note 3:  Fees are expected to be paid at the time of service via cash as I do not accept insurance.

Note 4:  Please provide 24 hours notice if you have to cancel.  Couples cancelling with less than 24 hours notice will be charged half of their scheduled appointment fee.
