Most insurance policies do not cover marital/couples therapy.  Because Gottman method assessments and interventions require 80 minute sessions (traditional sessions are 45 minutes - I use 80 minute sessions exclusively with couples), it is even less likely that your insurance will cover the entire cost of this session. However, at this time, I will be able to bill your insurance for a portion of the cost of the session.  Because I am in the process of becoming a certified Gottman therapist, I can offer this service at a lower rate than a certified Gottman therapist can. PLEASE NOTE: the cost for this service will likely be more than if you go to a therapist who does not practice the Gottman Method of couples therapy.  Your out-of-pocket expense will include your insurance copay and an additional $75 per session fee.  If you have any questions about this, please contact me directly and I will be glad to discuss them with you.  

When you are booking your sessions, please keep in mind that ALL couples appointments must be booked in two back-to-back time slots.  If you schedule only a single 45 minute session for couples counseling, your appointment may be subject to cancellation.  If you are unable to find back-to-back times that work for you, please let me know and I will do what I can to work with you to find another option.  In order to ensure that you will be able to schedule appointments on days/at times that are most convenient for you, I strongly encourage you to schedule several appointments at a time.  As a general rule, I recommend weekly appointments for at least the first 6 to 8 sessions.

New Clients may schedule 4 appointments at once and Existing/Returning clients may schedule up to 8 at once.  Once you have scheduled your initial sessions, you may re-enter the scheduling system as an Existing/Returning client and schedule more sessions.  If you prefer to schedule one appointment at a time, you may often have difficulty getting appointment times that are the most convenient for you.  Thank you for your understanding.
