Couples therapy fees are $250-280/session.

  • Some clients can benefit from DBT-informed treatment that consists of individual therapy only (we will discuss and determine this during your intake). Attendance of individual therapy at our clinic or with another therapist is required for participation in the DBT Skills Training Group
