Counseling as an Investment

I believe that counseling is an invaluable investment in oneself...and is often the most positive and impactful life-improving investment that we can make.
Early in my own life, I had the immense good fortune to meet an inspirational, warm, and compassionate counselor ⎯ and made the decision then that I would always place a priority here. I also knew somewhere in the back of my mind, though it took me quite a few more years to get there, that I wanted to offer a similar space of safety, inspiration, warmth, compassion, humor, and intelligence to clients.
Some clients find that taking better care of their inner self means that they feel less pressure to change their outer self because they are so much more comfortable in their own skin. On the flip side, I’ve also encountered many clients who wanted to spend more time, effort, and money on their ‘outer selves’ because, through counseling, they realized, “I AM worth it!”
Either way, counseling is an investment in oneself ⎯ and I remain committed to helping clients make the very, very most of that invaluable investment.
My standard fees for 60-minute counseling sessions are $190 for an Initial Assessment session and $170 for subsequent sessions.
Fees for other services, including supervision, consultation, workshops, presentations, and group counseling vary, so please reach out if you're interested in these.
Having worked for nearly two decades at a community agency that did not charge for counseling services, I remain committed to helping clients access therapy by utilizing their health insurance when possible and am therefore a paneled provider with a few select insurance plans. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about your specific coverage, including whether I am In-Network. I respect so tremendously the courage it takes to reach out for therapy, and am therefore dedicated to trying my best to help clients for whom I am not a provider and who cannot pay out-of-pocket for my services to find a provider who better fits their needs. I maintain a wide circle of referral resources and often consult them on behalf of inquiries like these.
I am also happy to provide a Statement for Insurance Reimbursement (also known as a Superbill) for clients who would like to see me but for whom I am Out-of-Network. These clients pay out-of-pocket and are welcome to then file their own insurance for Out-Of-Network reimbursement; it's an option utilized by quite a large number of my clients.
Additionally, I am NOT a provider for Medicare or Medicaid.
I accept Cash, Check, and Credit Card (VISA, MasterCard, American Express, Discover). Many Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) also provide Credit Cards that I am able to accept. Payment is required at time of service unless other arrangements have been jointly agreed upon.
What People Are Saying
“Many of Donna Hampton’s counseling clients have participated in the writing workshops I offer the bereaved. Without fail they rave about Donna ⎯ her fearless witnessing, her keen intuition, her gentle encouragement, her hopeful sparkle, and her wise counsel.
I teach at hospices all over the country, and I've never worked with a more responsible and compassionate professional than Donna. I wish I could take her with me.”
