Reduced Fee/Sliding Scale

Some of our couples and marriage therapists will consider adjusting their fee schedule to a lower rate based on your personal financial situation. The ability to slide the rate downward also depends on the counselor’s schedule and number of “slides” they are currently working with.

The lowest any of our couples therapists will slide down to is $100.00 per 1 hour session. Once again, the ability to slide is dependent upon that counselor’s ability to take on new clients at a reduced rate.
