Fee Update: Beginning September 1, 2026, fees will be $300 per 50-minute session and $450 per 75-minute session, with longer sessions and extended therapy formats billed proportionally. This rate applies to all appointments on or after September 1, even if an older fee appears in the booking menu.
NEW INTENSIVE CLIENTS: There are two ways to begin:
You may book a brief consultation if you would like to clarify fit, service options, and next steps before scheduling a full appointment. Consultation appointments are limited and may not always be available.
If consultation appointments are not showing, or if you are ready to begin therapy, you are welcome to book an initial session directly.
Please note: Dr. Rukavina’s schedule tends to book 4–8 weeks in advance. To ensure timely and consistent care, new weekly clients are encouraged to book 4–6 subsequent sessions after their initial appointment to support continuity and secure a regular place in her schedule.
CURRENT/RETURNING CLIENTS: Please select your desired session or contact to book.
