Pricing Information
I offer services on a sliding scale, with minimum rates listed below. Rates vary between programs based on the amount of customization and prep work required. We will work together to finalize a rate that honors my labor and expertise while respecting your family’s financial situation. I ask for your honesty and transparency while discussing pricing, and I will offer you the same! Paying me more than my minimum rate, if you can afford to, allows me to provide my services at a discounted rate to families who otherwise couldn’t afford them.
Please note: if you can’t afford the rate listed below but feel your child would benefit from my services, please get in touch. I am happy to discuss discounts and even service trades if it means your student can access the support they need!
