“I believe that a different therapy must be constructed for each patient because each has a unique story.”
— Irvin D. Yalom
Making therapy affordable
Our current healthcare systems make affordable therapy difficult to find. Highly trained therapists are often unable to serve the most needy populations due to low wages and unsustainable case loads in community mental health. I don’t have the solution to these problems, but I am working to find balance in living a healthy, financially stable life and helping people to find the mental health support they need. To me, this means taking insurance where I am able and keeping costs as low as possible. I have several “sliding scale,” or income-based cash fee clients to be able to support clients who are under- or uninsured. I am dedicated to continue searching for options to make therapy affordable! – Meghan
Cash pay clients
There are 3 tiers of payment status for cash pay clients.
- Full fee therapy for individuals based on current market rates for fully licensed therapists: $160 per session
- Discounted fees based on a discussion of income and needs: $120 per session
- Slide scale slots for low income clients: $75 or $30 per session.
- Currently, sliding scale slots are full until April 2027
Insurance
As of October 2026, we can accept these insurance plans in Washington State:
- Premera Blue Cross Blue Shield

If you would like to check your insurance status or deductible, send your policy information directly (a copy of the front and back of your insurance card) through the “contact us” page if you want to check before making an appointment.
I am happy to provide a superbill if I am out of network for your plan and you can submit directly to your insurance.
