    Fees

    For clients not covered by Medi-Cal: The fee for a 50 minute counseling session is $135. The client is responsible for a co-payment, which ranges from $10 to $135 based on a sliding scale determined by client income and family size.  When the fee is lowered on the sliding scale, the City of Fremont covers the additional cost. If non-Medi-Cal clients need a fee adjustment, verification of income needs to be presented at the initial interview.
