Your right to a Good Faith Estimate
If you don't have insurance, or you are not using it, you have the right to know what your care will cost before it starts. Here is that notice, and here are my prices.
What the law says
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and facilities are required to inform people who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage, or who are not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage, of their right to a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges, both orally and in writing, on request or at the time of scheduling.
- You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment and hospital fees.
- Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least one business day before your service. You can also ask your provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule.
- 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.

What hypnotherapy with me costs
I am private pay and I don't bill insurance, so this applies to everyone I work with. There are no tests, prescriptions, equipment or facility fees. The only charges are the sessions themselves.
- Individual session, 60 minutes, online: $250
- Three-day intensive, and the Premium package: priced on the sessions and prices page
Most people see me weekly for a stretch of weeks; some come for an intensive and stop there. Before we start, you get a written estimate inside your SimplePractice client portal, based on what we agree on. If the plan changes, you get a new one. You can ask for an estimate at any time through the contact page.
