Fees: My rate is $75+tax for a 1-hour session, $100+tax for a 1.5-hour session, $125+tax for a 2-hour session, and so on (travel to and from client is included, travel during sessions for outings is billed). Most sessions are 1.5 – 2 hours in duration. If appropriate, I may provide a complimentary 15-minute phone chat followed by a 30-minute in-person initial meeting at no cost, to ensure I am a good fit for your loved one, and vice versa.
Are you or your loved one:
- Lonely, bored, or experiencing a decline in health and well-being?

I’m here to help. As a Recreation Therapist, I help people with potentially limiting conditions like these (and many others) make the most of their lives – physically, mentally, emotionally and socially. Recreation Therapy at Life in Full can help with your or your loved one by improving fine and gross motor skills, physical functioning, social effectiveness, self-efficacy, memory, community integration, self-awareness, emotional regulation, mood, coordination and more.
