Fees & Packages
At Good News Encounters, we believe everyone should have access to Christian counseling and coaching. Our fees reflect the time, preparation, and care that go into each session, while also offering options to make care accessible to all.
Initial Consultation
We offer a free consultation to help you explore whether our Christian counseling and coaching services align with your needs. This conversation gives you space to share your goals, ask questions, and learn what to expect if we move forward together.
Session Rates
$85 per 60-minute session
My current fee is $85 per session. If you decide you'd like to meet over a longer period of time, I also offer discounted package rates:
4 sessions: $320 ($80 per session)
8 sessions: $600 ($75 per session)
12 sessions: $840 ($70 per session)
There's no pressure to purchase a package. Many people simply begin with one session.
Sliding Scale
Reduced-fee sessions are available on a sliding scale for those experiencing financial hardship. If you’d like to request a lower rate, simply mention it during your consultation—every request is handled confidentially and with care.
Insurance
Good News Encounters does not work with insurance. Instead, we keep fees simple, offer flexible rates, and partner with churches and donors to make care accessible to all.
