If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like something just isn't working, that's enough of a reason to reach out. You don't need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Most people wish they'd started sooner.

It's a complimentary 15-minute video call where you can briefly share what's been difficult, and I'll ask a few questions to understand your goals. I'll explain how I work, answer your questions, and we'll discuss next steps if it feels right. No pressure. It's simply to see if we're a good fit.

Individual sessions are $225, couples $250, and family $275 per 50-minute session. While I do not bill insurance directly, you can request a super-bill to submit for potential out-of-network reimbursement. I recommend visiting my Mentaya link to understand your out-of-network benefits and eligibility.

Insurance is not accepted at Megan Bathen-Gonzalez Psychotherapy. All services are fully private pay. There are a small number of spots open for sliding scale fees, as well as the option to submit a super-bill to your insurance.

Wondering how much your insurance might cover? Use the tool to check your out-of-network benefits in seconds. Many PPO clients receive 40 to 80% back on sessions.

A superbill is a detailed receipt of services that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. It includes information such as the type of service provided, diagnosis codes, and session fees. Reimbursement is not guaranteed and depends on your specific out-of-network benefits. Check them here.

That's more common than you'd think, and it usually comes down to fit, timing, or approach. If something feels different about what you've read here, it's worth a conversation. The consultation call is a good way to get a feel for whether this would be different.

A standard session is 50 minutes long.

That's completely okay. It's normal to need a little more time before taking that step.

If you'd prefer, you're welcome to reach out by email first. You can share a bit about what's been going on or ask any questions you have, and I'll respond personally.

Reaching out by email is just another way to start at your own pace.

Yes. Everything you share in therapy is kept private and confidential. The only exceptions are situations required by law, such as risk of harm to yourself or others, or abuse of a child, elder, or dependent adult.

While I have experience and love working with kids, I do not currently accept minor clients. I find the work with kids is most productive in person, and I do not have the space to offer in-person services currently.

I work to understand both of your experiences and the pattern happening between you. Most conflict isn't about one "bad" partner; it's about a cycle that pulls you both into reactivity. That said, I will hold both of you accountable. If something is harmful, avoidant, or escalating conflict, we'll address it directly and respectfully.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I am not able to prescribe medications. If this is something you are looking for, I would be happy to give you a referral.
