FAQs: Your Questions Answered

Sessions vary based on each therapist. You can expect somewhere between $100-195 per 50-55 minute session. Our practicum therapists can work within a sliding scale if needed.

We do not take insurance. We accept cash, check, credit/debit card, and HSA debit cards for payment. If you wish to submit a claim to your insurance, we can provide you a superbill that you can submit to your insurance provider for any potential reimbursement you may receive depending on your out-of-network benefits.

The duration of therapy is discussed between you and your therapist. Our hope is that clients will begin to have tools and experience some relief from symptoms within the first 5 sessions. The number of sessions will be determined by factors such as severity and history of symptoms, frequency of sessions, and readiness for change. Many people choose to meet with their therapist weekly or bi-weekly. Scheduling is done with your therapist depending on both your mental health goals and economic needs.

If you know the therapist from our counseling team you’d like to work with, you can call or email them to get a consultation set up. If you’re unsure about which therapist you’d like to collaborate with, please fill out the contact form or email info@ezracounseling. We will reply within 24-48 hours and set you up with a consultation call to see which therapist from our Scottsdale AZ counseling services may best fit your needs. Ready to take the first step towards walking in confidence, achieving better relationships, and simplifying the whirlwind of life? Get started with us today.

We offer both in-person and online sessions.

If you’re searching for a counselor in Scottsdale AZ, you’ll be pleased to find our office is located in North Scottsdale, just off of East the 101 and at the intersection of Frank Lloyd Wright and Redfield.

What’s in a name?

“Ezra” comes from the Bible—it means “HELP.” To come alongside, to be a helping presence. As therapists, we are guiding and helping people. If they feel stuck, we can help them get unstuck. We can get so far on our own and then need another person/outside source to help us with the rest.
