My standard fee is $145 for a 50-minute therapy session. My work at Mirari Counseling reflects an integrative clinical approach informed by psychological research, trauma-informed practice, and the philosophical and theological dimensions of human experience. Treatment is tailored to each client's circumstances, concerns, and goals.
Initial Consultation and Intake
An initial consultation is available for $50 for 20 minutes. This meeting provides an opportunity to discuss what you are seeking from therapy or coaching, explore whether Mirari Counseling's approach aligns with your needs, and consider whether we may be a good fit for working together.
The initial intake session is $175 for a 75 minute session. This appointment allows additional time for a comprehensive clinical assessment, exploration of relevant personal and relational history, clarification of treatment goals, and development of an individualized understanding of your presenting concerns to inform the therapeutic process.
Limited sliding-scale availability may be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Out-of-Network Benefits and Reimbursement
Mirari Counseling is an out-of-network provider. Depending on your plan, you may be eligible for reimbursement through your out-of-network mental health benefits. I can provide a superbill for submission to your insurance provider, or you may use Mentaya, a service that helps simplify the reimbursement process. Mentaya charges a 5% service fee. Because coverage and reimbursement vary by plan, I encourage you to verify your benefits and understand any applicable requirements before beginning services.
Sessions are 50 minutes in length and are typically scheduled weekly. Biweekly sessions may be appropriate depending on your individual needs, presenting concerns, treatment goals, and schedule.
Meeting less frequently than every other week may limit the continuity and effectiveness of treatment. If you are considering a less frequent schedule, I encourage you to discuss this with me so that we can determine together what frequency is most appropriate for your care.
All sessions are provided virtually through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You will receive access to the secure client portal when you schedule your intake appointment.
If you have questions or concerns about virtual therapy, I am happy to talk with you about what to expect and help you determine whether telehealth is a good fit for your needs.
You are welcome to bring those experiences into therapy. Faith and religious communities can be sources of meaning, belonging, and hope, but they can also be places where we experience hurt, confusion, loss, betrayal, or grief. There may be questions about faith, doubt, belonging, vocation, conscience, identity, or relationships that do not have simple answers.
Therapy can offer space to explore those experiences honestly and without pressure to arrive at a particular conclusion. You do not need to have everything figured out before you begin. We can make room for what has been difficult, what you still value, what you have lost, and what you are still trying to understand.
For some people, healing may involve rediscovering something that remains meaningful. For others, it may involve establishing new boundaries, finding a different way of relating to faith or community, or discerning what comes next.
It is understandable to feel hesitant about trying therapy again after an experience that did not feel helpful. There are many reasons therapy may not have been a good fit, including the therapeutic approach, the relationship with the clinician, the timing, or the particular needs you were bringing into treatment at the time. Sometimes, the issue is not that therapy itself was ineffective, but that the conditions needed for meaningful therapeutic work were not yet in place.
You do not have to start over by pretending that those experiences did not happen. We can talk about what was and was not helpful, what you are hoping will be different this time, and what you need from therapy now.
Therapy is a collaborative process, and finding the right fit matters. Meaningful change also involves your own participation in the process. This does not mean that you have to arrive feeling completely ready, motivated, or certain that therapy will work. Readiness can develop over time. It does mean being willing, at a pace that feels manageable, to engage honestly and consistently with the process, consider new perspectives, and participate in the work of change.
My hope is to create a space where you can be honest about what you need, what is working, and what is not. Your feedback and participation are an important part of that process. If something does not feel helpful, I want us to be able to talk about it together, explore what may need to change, and consider whether there is a different way of approaching the work before concluding that therapy is not working. Learning to communicate honestly about your needs, navigate differences, and work through moments of difficulty or discomfort together can itself be part of meaningful therapeutic and relational growth.
