For Private Practice Clients
InTandem Music Therapy believes in fee transparency. By listing fees outright, we aim to demystify the general costs associated with music therapy. Below is a table of the service costs. All costs have been considered using guidelines provided by the Music Therapy Association of BC, which can be found by clicking here. My rate when working at other clinics, such as Cherish Clinic in Burnaby will be higher due to administrative costs and use-of-space. Additionally, if clients move from one clinic to another, the initial agreed-upon rate will be honoured and transfer over. Please note that service costs are subject to change at a reasonable rate. For questions about funding, you can click here. If you need services and are not able to pay the standard rates listed above, please contact us to discuss sliding scale options! Micaela leaves space in her practice for sliding scale rates in efforts to make sessions more accessible to clients.

| Initial Consultation | This is an opportunity to determine if the therapist is the right fit for your needs. Confidentiality, consent, and procedures during the consultation will be addressed at this time. | 15 minutes | Free |
| Individual Sessions | The session is typically 45 minutes, unless otherwise requested by the client/client’s caregivers. What we do in each session will differ as it is dependent on the needs and wants for that individual at that time. | 30-60 mins | $90.00- $140.00 |
| In-Home Sessions | Sessions take place in the client’s home. I would bring all equipment needed for sessions. The session is minimum 45 minutes, unless otherwise requested by the client/client’s caregivers.
