Yes and no. I am not an in-network provider with any insurance company but I will provide you with a Super Bill which you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement.
I recommend you reach out to your insurance company to see what your out-of-network behavioral health benefits are. In some cases, coverage can be quite good. In other cases, there is a hefty deductible. Calling to ask is the best way to find out what yours are. -
The initial intake assessment is 90 minutes and the fee is $300.
My standard hourly session fee is $200 and extended sessions are based on that rate, therefore 90 minutes is $300 and 2 hours is $400.
The pricing for an intensive is $750 for 3 hours. The reason a 3 hour intensive is more expensive is because these sessions are in-person and it includes the cost of renting the office space.
I accept credit card payments as well as payments through your HSA or FSA accounts. -
Absolutely. EMDR Intensives can complement your ongoing therapy. If you’re working with another therapist, Kristen can collaborate with them to ensure the Intensive aligns with your overall treatment plan and goals.

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.
Under the No Surprises Act implemented in January of 2022, health care providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for therapy and psychiatry services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including therapy and psychiatry services. You can ask your provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service, or at any time during treatment.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
