Services Offered & Fees

I currently have a short waitlist and offer individual and couples therapy for adults in-person only. 

Because I see couples for 6-12 sessions on average, the turnover is quick. 

To be on the waitlist, just complete the New Client Information Form  and I'll be in touch.

I offer Concierge Level Therapy:
When you email, call or text you get direct access to me, Barbara Boutsikaris.
No third party answering service. 

I respond to all clients within a few hours. No waiting for days.

If you don't get a response within 24 hours, I either didn't get the message or the contact information was garbled or incorrect. Please reach out again, preferably by email.

My fees are as follows:

Initial Consultation (First appointment - in person - 60 minutes): $225

Individual Counseling (In person - 45-60 minutes): $175

Couples Counseling (In person - 45-60 minutes): $200

Couples Counseling (In person - 90 minutes): $350

Clinical Supervision (45 minutes): $150

Televideo: For established clients only, emergencies or for sickness. Same rates as above.

All fees are due at the time of your session:

The easiest way to pay for your session is via Venmo (@Barbara-Boutsikaris), or with cash, check or ApplePay. 

If you would like to pay by credit card (including some HSA accounts) there is an additional 3.75% charge for the card reader fee.

Fees for late cancelation (less than 48 hours) or "No Show": 

If you "no-show" or cancel less than 48 hours before your scheduled appointment, you will be charged a fee of $150 

unless you are able to reschedule with me for another time within the same week. This fee must be paid before your next appointment. Thank you for your understanding.

Sliding Fee:

I offer a sliding fee scale and I am happy to work with you to accommodate your needs/finances.

Power of Choice vs. Insurance:

Insurance companies dictate and deny coverage for therapy if they don't consider it medically necessary. Therefore, I no longer accept any insurance and am considered "out of network." Instead, you, the client, hold the power to decide for yourself what support you want and for how long you want/need it. This way you have the power of choice. 

I am happy to provide you with a paid invoice, also called a "super bill," to help you get reimbursed by your insurance company for the fees paid to me. Speak to your HR or call your insurance company to determine if you have any "out-of-network" benefits.

Couples: 

After your initial consultation, if you decide to work with me, you are making a commitment to meet weekly for approximately 6-12 sessions. All the research on couples therapy demonstrates that committing to weekly sessions establishes consistency and accountability and improves the outcome. 

After your initial consultation where we determine if it's a good fit for you, I will then meet individually once with each of you before we begin the couples work. After those individual sessions we will meet all together weekly for approximately 6-12 sessions or until you are ready to move to every other week, every other month, and then as needed. 

My job is to get you OUT of therapy, confident that you know how to use the skills to repair any challenges you face.
