EQUITABLE FEE SCALE

My fees are based on an economic justice, tiered equity pricing scale that considers your social location in terms of privilege/access to resources. Please consider the difference between making a sacrifice to pay for consultation, versus whether paying would create economic hardship for you.

I require no income verification, only an honest acknowledgement of what is possible for you. I trust you to assess your economic reality.

There’s a nuance around service and access which recognizes some may have financial means to access services, while acknowledging that paying for this service might be a challenge for others, and gives space for those who are dealing with financial hardship. Engaging with an equitable fee scale asks that you respect the energy and investments of practitioners, like myself, to support families, cover expenses, attend trainings, and invest more time and resources towards free and lower cost offerings.

Discounted fees are reserved for people who are financially unable to afford my full fee. If you request a fee at the lower end of the scale when you can actually afford a higher fee, you're limiting access to those who truly need the gift of financial flexibility. We're all connected.

PLEASE INQUIRE DIRECTLY FOR MORE INFORMATION

  • Full Fee

    This is the actual service cost. All fees below this tier are discounted. If you’re able to meet your basic needs and enjoy wants as well, have savings, investments, property, inherited money, retirement accounts, travel for fun, work part time (or don’t work) by choice, have regular access to health care, have potential earning power even if it’s not immediately apparent because you are able bodied, have a college degree, have generational wealth, or because of your gender, race, etc then you have economic privilege and power in our community. This price is for you.

    $225 | 45-minute, individual session
    $450 | 90-minute, relationship session

  • Discounted Fee

    This is for people who have a steady income, do not spend most days worried about meeting basic needs (such as health care, housing, food, child care, transportation), and have financial space to enjoy some wants. They vacation annually or every few years without financial burden, thou they may be struggling to conquer debt, build savings, or move away from paycheck to paycheck living. If paying for this service may necessitate that you scale back on luxury spending in your life (such as eating out) but it would not create significant hardship, you belong here.

    $190 | 45-minute, individual session
    $380 | 90-minute, relationship session

  • Hardship Fee

    If you struggle to maintain access to basic needs such as health care, housing, food, child care, transportation, are living paycheck to paycheck, in significant debt, have no/very limited expendable income, have no access to savings, cannot afford a vacation or have the financial ability to take time off, are eligible for public assistance, have immigration-related expenses, and/or if you are descended from enslaved people or Indigenous Americans then you are probably dealing with hardship and belong here.
