Sliding Scale Therapy with Interns

Why consider an intern? They’re closely supervised, deeply invested in learning, and bring fresh perspective and heart to the work. Many clients are surprised at how much they connect with interns and how affordable the support can be.

Intern therapists at Hale Counseling NW offer sessions on a “pay as you can” model, ranging from $30–$85 per session:

💡 How it works:

  • The standard fee is $85.

  • Most clients contribute between $55 – $70 per session.

  • A limited number of reduced-rate spots ($30 – $45) are reserved for those with financial need.

  • You choose what works best for you!

FAQ

How long are your sessions, and how often should we meet?

Our standard session length is 55 minutes. If you want to meet longer, we can do 90- or 120-minute sessions based on availability. We prorate the cost of the session based on length.

Weekly or bimonthly sessions are recommended to get the most momentum and maximize progress.

Are you in-person or virtual?

Both! Please let us know your preference and we can try to accommodate your needs.

If you are located in Oregon or Washington during the time of your session, our team can meet with your virtually.
