LGBTQ affirming therapy is mental health care that actively supports and validates the identities and experiences of LGBTQ+ individuals. Our therapists receive specialized training to help clients navigate issues such as identity exploration, coming out, discrimination, trauma, and relationship dynamics within LGBTQ+ contexts.

We currently accept the following PPO insurance plans:

• Blue Cross and Blue Shield PPO

Clients are responsible for any co-pays, deductibles, or coinsurance required by their individual plans. If you’re not sure what your coverage includes, we’re happy to help you verify your benefits.

Clients not using accepted insurance plans will pay for sessions out of pocket. We are happy to provide a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

For clients paying privately:

• Initial intake session: $200

• Ongoing sessions: $185

We accept most major credit cards. Payment is collected at the time of service unless otherwise arranged.
