Rates & Working Together
Lion Counseling is a team-based practice built to support men who carry real responsibility and want meaningful, lasting change. While our clinicians bring different levels of experience and areas of focus, we work collaboratively and share a common clinical framework, values, and standard of care.
Most clients begin with a free, 30-minute consultation, followed – if appropriate – by a paid intake session, which is the first formal therapy or coaching appointment.
Clarity Call (30 Minutes)
Our complimentary Clarity Call is a brief, no-obligation conversation for men serious about our services. It is designed to:
Understand what you’re seeking support for
Answer initial questions
Clarify fit between you and our practice
Recommend the most appropriate next step
There is no charge for this consultation.
Initial Intake Session
The intake session is the first official clinical appointment. It is longer and more comprehensive, allowing your clinician to gather history, assess current challenges, and begin shaping a treatment or coaching plan.
Intake fees are as follows:
Mark Odland, MA, LMFT
Intake Session: $600
Zack Carter, MA
Intake Session: $250
Ongoing Sessions
Following the intake, most clients meet weekly or bi-weekly, depending on goals and clinical needs.
Mark Odland
Ongoing Sessions: $500 per 60-minute session
Zack Carter
Ongoing Sessions: $200 per 60-minute session
Choosing the Right Clinician
Differences in fees reflect factors such as experience, training, scope of practice, and areas of specialization – not the importance or value of the work itself. All members of our team provide thoughtful, ethical, and evidence-informed care and collaborate using a team approach to support client progress.
If you’re unsure which clinician is the best fit, this can be discussed during your free consultation.
